ProtonVPN
Hello, I am new to kubernetes so this might be a common issue but i figured this was the best place to try.
There seems to be an error with ProtonVPN. I can't tell if it's your chart, the actual docker image or my configuration.
Create a secret:
kubectl create secret generic openvpn \
--from-literal username=<VPN_USERNAME> \
--from-literal password=<VPN_PASSWORD> \
--namespace media
Create a configmap:
kubectl create configmap openvpn-common-config --from-file my_proton_vpn_file.ovpn --namespace media
Apply the install your transmission chart with:
helm install transmission bananaspliff/transmission-openvpn \
--values media.transmission-openvpn.values.yml \
--namespace media
Here is what my config looks like:

The error:
Using OpenVPN provider: PROTONVPN
No VPN configuration provided. Using default.
Setting OPENVPN credentials...

Note: I do not receive this error when doing sudo openvpn my_proton_vpn_file.ovpn on my local machine.
I think your network value should be like this:
- name: LOCAL_NETWORK
value: "192.168.0.0/24"
@razagill I a pretty sure the error was due to miss configuration of the local network IP value.
I tried the value you provided. It didnt end up working. I ended up switching to nordvpn and that just worked.
However, i just moved and i need to resetup my server. I can give another tey to proton if youd like. I still have the config file.
@andrewc910 Sure, I also tried it with 2 different providers (expressvpn and premiumize) and both give the same error. I even tried the CREATE_TUN_DEVICE environment variable from the underlying docker image itself here but still the same error.

You guys need to add more env variables see this here. Also you can see a good set up here It uses NORDVPN in the transmission part.
