After updating to 388.2 VPN Client using ExpressVPN says "Error - check configuration!"

[Skeptical.me]

I tried reinstalling the .ovpn file but that didn't help. Have there been any changes to the VPN client in the firmware?

Thank you

Have you looked at the changelog, the first place where that kind of information would be documented?

That's the first place I should have looked, silly me. And I figured it out, thanks for the help.

What did you find in the changelog, how did you fix your problem?

In the changelog, it states:

- UPDATED: openvpn to 2.6.2.  If your client fails to connect
             then your custom settings must contain settings no
             longer supported by OpenVPN 2.6.  Review the System
             Log, then remove unsupported settings that are
             reported in your log.

I checked the log and it mentioned keysize, so I checked the Custom Configuration on the OpenVPN Client and removed "keysize 256" and that solved the issue.


Custom Configuration:

fast-io
remote-random
pull
tls-client
ns-cert-type server
route-method exe
route-delay 2
tun-mtu 1500
fragment 1300
mssfix 1200
cipher AES-256-CBC
keysize 256
sndbuf 524288
rcvbuf 524288
