[2.4.2] OpenVPN connects but doesn't get an IP address

[ssbarnea]

I am trying to make OpenVPN client to work on pfsense 2.4.2 but somehow it seems to fail to get an IP address. The log do look OK as you can see below but still it fails to connect as it doesn't get any IP address and no routes are added.

There is no chance of getting any conflict because the VPN is using 10.x.x.x class and pfsense is using 192.168.x.x.

I tried to increase the log level and ended up with level=4 but still not hints on what went wrong.
