Putting your localized file in /lib/systemd/system is the problem. The upgrade wiped it out. Localizations should go in /etc/systemd/system
The Fedora 25 /lib/systemd/system/openvpn.service unit file from the rpm: [Unit] Description=OpenVPN Robust And Highly Flexible Tunneling Application On %I After=network.target
[Service] PrivateTmp=true Type=forking PIDFile=/var/run/openvpn/%i.pid ExecStart=/usr/sbin/openvpn --daemon --writepid /var/run/openvpn/%i.pid --cd /etc/openvpn/ --config %i.conf
[Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target This file should not be edited.
My /etc/systemd/system/openvpn@server.service that I created: .include /lib/systemd/system/openvpn@.service
[Unit] After=syslog.target After=network.target
[Service] Environment="OPENSSL_ENABLE_MD5_VERIFY=1"
The text between the @ and the dot ('server') in the unit name becomes the %i variable for the unit file. In this case, it's the config file name and the pid file name: [0:root@elmo ~]$ ls -lZ /etc/openvpn/server.conf /var/run/openvpn/server.pid -rw-r-----. 1 root root system_u:object_r:openvpn_etc_t:s0 11400 Jul 24 07:07 /etc/openvpn/server.conf -rw-r--r--. 1 root root system_u:object_r:openvpn_var_run_t:s0 5 Nov 18 20:55 /var/run/openvpn/server.pid

yeah somethings changed it used to be simple now we have to create/copy files to systemd.... i just went through this today also
specifically in Section 5. Setting up automatic OpenVPN connection on system start *This step requires that you set up automatic login from the previous step.

Is the .service file in /etc/systemd/system ? [0:root@elmo ~ 2]$ ls -lZ /etc/systemd/system/openvpn@server.service -rw-r--r--. 1 root root system_u:object_r:systemd_unit_file_t:s0 148 Aug 6 2015 /etc/systemd/system/openvpn@server.service Of course yours would be openvpn@client-ibecker2.service

Was working before upgrade to f27. Now:
sudo systemctl start openvpn@client-ibecker2 Failed to start openvpn@client-ibecker2.service: Unit openvpn@client- ibecker2.service not found.
According to https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Openvpn#Working_with_systemd
I would need to have /etc/openvpn/client-ibecker2.conf, which is there (as it's been since 2015).
I don't know why this isn't working, or how to debug it (systemctl doesn't seem to have any debug flags) _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@lists.fedoraproject.org
