open vpn password is not working
I am tying to use the marketplace open vpn server. It gives me the
Incorrect login, even tough I typed everything in correctly. I was following along this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HPKgzup2fco.
(edit)
I found the issue it seems to generate a random password, not taking the one that one set one marketplace. Furthermore, I was able to find this password in usr/local/openvpn_as/init.log

There is a known bug that we're aware of with Open VPN not accepting passwords set during installing from our Marketplace Apps. Just as you did, this Community Post also gives a different workaround to obtain the login credentials to use in the meantime as this is being resolved. These two approaches both get you to the same goal.
