Hello all. I need some assistance with t/s why OpenVPN container will not stay connected to the network. Please bear with me if I say things wrong as I’m still learning the lingo and have only just learned what a docker is and have about 1.5 months of Linux based program experience. I wasn’t sure if this was an OpenVPN issue or Portainer so I figured I’d start here.
I could have followed a great tutorial for getting this up and running today but decided to try myself because I wanted to use LinuxServers image for OpenVPN. After pulling the image I did what I thought was the basic setup for getting it running. I set up a bridge and Portainer assigns an IP and when I looks at my stacks it says its running and there is an IP and Ports showing. After about 30-60 seconds though the IP and ports disappear from the UI and there is just hyphens in their place. I have not been able to access the OpenVPN admin page because of this.
No matter how many times I go back into the Stack and scroll down to the bottom and “Join Network” it only joins for about a minute and then leaves the network.
Any help on what I’m doing wrong would be great. Thank you in advance.
