If OpenVPN tunnel dies, does not retry to reestablish OpenVPN

Open iceman73 opened this issue 7 years ago • 6 comments

Noticed that the key I receive from my VPN Provider expires after a few days, which in turn terminates the OpenVPN connection. If I restart the container or rerun the start script, the OpenVPN connection is reestablished and qBittorent can continue downloading.

Any idea on how I can force the script to restart when it sees the tunnel terminated?

iceman73, is there anything in the openvpn confile file for your connection that specifies the expiration time?

No There is not
