Mageia won't see openvpn

Mageia won't see openvpn

Postby onikage » Jul 13th, '13, 21:18

Funny thing. I just installed openvpn thru software manager however when I try to run my HMA vpn client it says that openvpn is not installed. I'm running Mageia 3. Any ideas ?

Code: Select all
[root@localhost ~]# cd /usr/share
[root@localhost share]# cd openvpn
[root@localhost openvpn]# ls -la
total 36
drwxr-xr-x   6 root root  4096 Jul 13 21:16 ./
drwxr-xr-x 270 root root 12288 Jul 13 21:45 ../
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root root  1690 Apr 16 22:55 dhcp.sh*
drwxr-xr-x   2 root root  4096 Jul 13 21:16 easy-rsa/
drwxr-xr-x   2 root root  4096 Jul 13 21:16 sample-config-files/
drwxr-xr-x   2 root root  4096 Jul 13 21:16 sample-keys/
drwxr-xr-x   2 root root  4096 Jul 13 21:16 sample-scripts/
[onikage@localhost HMA]$ sh hma-vpn.sh -l "New York"
which: no openvpn in (/usr/share/colorgcc:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/lib/qt4/bin:/home/onikage/bin)
Error: Please install openvpn for this script to work.
You can try any of the following commands:
apt-get install openvpn
yum install openvpn
[onikage@localhost HMA]$

Please show the output of
Code: Select all
rpm -qa | grep openvpn


Apart from that, a quick look tells me that openvpn should be run by root, as it is located below /usr/sbin:
Code: Select all
[doktor5000@Mageia3 ~]$ urpmq -l openvpn | grep bin
/usr/sbin/openvpn
