Could not locate the CA reference for the server certificate. Failed to export config files!
-
Good afternoon from the West Coast all,
On my client's 2.4.5-RELEASE-p1 (amd64) running on esxi 6.0 I had to remove the original local CA (on-box) and create new. After I did that I deleted recreated all the user certificates and the road warrior VPN and associated server cert. With that done when I try to export an Ovpn user package/config I get the following;The following input errors were detected:
Could not locate the CA reference for the server certificate.
Failed to export config files!Nothing to speak of in the system or Ovpn logs. Is this a known bug? Remote access to their site is currently down due to this. Thanks all. -W

Good afternoon from Germany.
I tried to reproduce this in my lab but it's working as expected. Are you running the latest openvpn-client-export package (1.4.23_2)?
Can you post the CA and Certificates tab and OpenVPN server config (screenshots)?-Rico

Okay I managed to provoke exactly your error with setting the OpenVPN server cert to the WebConfiguratior cert, then tried to export the User config.
Sooo there is something messed up with your Server Cert or you have a wrong cert configured in the OpenVPN server setting.-Rico

Thanks for labing this up. So what else can I do aside from creating a new local CA, generating new server and user certs + multiple reboots?
-
Oh yes and I did update the client export package to the latest and no love.

You need to have the same CA as Issuer for the Server and Client Cert.
