segfault at start - fresh Debian Jessie 8.2

[Nightreaver]

Whenever I run (fresh debian 8.2.0 jessie install)

~# apt-get install openvpn openvpn-auth-ldap easy-rsa

openvpn --dev null --plugin /usr/lib/openvpn/openvpn-auth-ldap.so /etc/openvpn/auth-ldap.cnf

it immediately stops with segfault

any ideas? do I miss a dependency?

Yeah... fixed!

You should mention to use tabstops instead simple spaces in the config-file... maybe somewhere around the config site?!

Thanks

[aniolm9]

@Nightreaver Could you explain in more detail how you fixed it?

Thanks!

[Nightreaver]

Hey

I mentioned it already. You have use "all tabs" for indent, if you mix tabs/spaces it will fail.

if you have mixed like

it will fail.

[aniolm9]

Could you try it in Debian Stretch, please? It works fine in my server.

What gives me a segfault is running openvpn --dev null --plugin /usr/lib/openvpn/openvpn-auth-ldap.so with no more parameters.

Thanks!
