Hi wellumies,

There's a lot of warnings in the log. I assume after a minute you are manually disconnecting the connection?

As a first step, please try changing to OpenVPN 2.3 to see if this is a compatibility problem. To do that, go to Preferences -> Advanced, and change the OpenVPN version in the drop down to 2.3 and try connecting again.

Before doing this, please also restart your computer to be sure your PC is in a clean state.

Regards,
Eric
