If I chage the IP address in ovpn file to IPv6 address, it fails to connect.

You have to edit other things too: set iptables for IPv6, enable IP forwarding for IPv6, change the NIC. I think it would be easier to reinstall with IPv6 support enabled.

Could you teach me how to do that?

Restart the OpenVPN service or reboot and let me know if it worked for you.

I'm sorry for my previous answer suggesting a re-installation.
