    zomboided Little update for you on my issue:

    First off I donated a couple of bucks to my favorite charity the EFF.

    Next, I have installed a fresh install of libreelec and simply added repo's I did not install any zips except for your zip file.

    NordVPN still errors out on downloading using the latest libreelec.

    So, It is for sure an issue with OPENVPN at this point. I notice the downloads lag hard core.

    Idea for you I am desperately seeking a solution that will work so the program functions as it should would it be possible to download the zip file and then just extract it using the OPENVPN software it just seems it would stop the issues with the downloads as you would be downloading a single zip file and unzipping locally I think failure would disappear all together while I could be wrong it seems this would be excellent if this avenue could be taken instead. It is like the pi does not like all the individual files being downloaded.

    So have software download the zip. zip

    Then software unpacks files to /dowload/NordVPN

    Then software imports. Errr not sure as to where it imports

    Optionally a resume function to pickup where it craps out would be nice so it don't just download things again and waste bandwidth and time I swear I must have tried to download the listing like 20+ times waiting forever in a day over the last 3 days all for it to crap out very discouraging.

    I'd like to see this work without a hack job really which is why I made the above suggestions.

    What lines of code and such on the github are for nordvpn I wonder if I could maybe try to fork the code for a nordvpn build or something never did it so I really don't have a clue how to do anything with github nor program but I'm kind of out of options here.

    You are telling me that it is working when I assure you it is not a connection like this one is hard to come by it is not my internet either I got a massive pipe and everything else is ticking along fine. My SD Card is one of the best on the market at the current time. My Pi's are all brand new and run everything else fine about a couple weeks old. Retropie, Linux and other builds I have messed with without issue. All USB ports work bluetooth works power adapters are all 5v 3a tried all 3 of these. Tried every hardware angle I can think of.

    I have a new install of LibreElec 8.1.0 wrote that image with etcher direct from LibreElec's website.

    /shrug Kind of at a loss here.

    I thank you for the software and everything really I guess my original trial of using it it worked dang good and I was spoiled by it I believe as now it seems I cannot get it going if I took a month of Sundays trying to download the ovpn files.

    I don't mind a challenge I suppose but really this thing should work on a fresh installation.

    Any other openvpn apps available for LibreElec or do you hold the only existing application for it?

    @everyone

    Anyone else using zomboided's openvpn and the latest libreelec in conjunction with NordVPN?

    If so have you tried to update the latest listing of ovpn files?

    I see a frequent invalid window id error in the logs dunno where it is coming from ... There is a crap ton of things going on I may have to do a rebuild and make a good backup from that hundreds of addons is probably making this all an impossible dream.

    alright then I will likely have a go at it today kinda just got a littl break from canning some things from the garden I'll have a go at it after this and possibly shorten down the listing.

    Import wizard instructions on the wiki hrmmm I wasn't aware of the wiki I was scouring the github for comments that would be like mine but none matched what I was looking for. I did see talk of importing and using possibly two different vpn providers etc. But my issue is a bit different I still insist it would be cool to beable to import locally from a folder under the correct vpn's name rather than having the user defined as there may be settings that are specific to a certain VPN that the program handles well in the program section but not so much whilst trying to do user defined. Simplicity is the end result of any good work or it seems as if this is the likely evolution and while this is a bit simple as it stands when things are buggy like this it would be an excellent way to fix a small checkbox to import locally from folder and a reminder every so often to make sure to update would go a long way not to mention possibly be a bit faster I don't know the difference between VPN's and how they handle but I am aware of the security woes from many of them.

    Anyways I really appreciate the work if you let me know how much a bottle of your favorite beer costs and direct me to paypal where I can buy you one I'd be more than happy to.

    Zomboided Rep OpenVPN User here first off I want to say THANKS ZOMBOIDED!!!!

    Zomboided has been rather excellent in the past I have used and had zero issues.

    At current I am having some issues that kind of throw me for a loop and I cannot provide a log because it will not log until a connection starts.

    Well then on with the show! here are my issues or fixes I would like to see.

    Addition of changing DHCP for LibreElec I am unsure how to do this manually at current but would be excellent if it were an included feature.

    NORDVPN downloader is hanging and making my device over heat it hangs downloads hangs downloads hangs downloads then craps out with an error.

    Why don't you allow users to use samba or SSH to load the files locally through the program and apply them?

    So under nordvpn say upload them yourself through samba or ssh to this directory or download automatically?

    I can download them and put them in the Download folder and all it does is try to download again leaving duplicate copies with the same name oddly ? Either this or introduce a resume download rather than crap out and do it over again?

    Very very crazy I will say this was a restored libreelec using the built in backup manager.

    Also I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times without any luck what is so ever.

    A little help here on how to manually get the software to see the files and know they are current and downloaded would be nice.

    Would be great to stop the program from doing downloading of ovpn files at this point or trick it into believing what it has in downloads/openvpn is fine.... Very crazy trying to get my OVPN files updated it just keeps freezing.

    I will note I have tried this on a pi 2 and a pi 3 now and it just stops downloading before it gets halfway through downloading it usually gets stuck at about 5 or 6 files and puts on the breaks and stops downloading on both devices would be cool if I could get this going and updated manually I started poking around with SSH to try and see where and how this info is being stored but I have yet to see where it is being stored or how I could just add the new info I'm sure there is some way possibly to do such a thing or a way could be implemented in the code but I've spent a full 24 hours messing about trying different pi's different sd cards etc thinking it may have been something hardware related no luck.

    Tried also to import them as user defined that's when the pi3 started overheating with the temp logo... I could blow on it and cool it down but it would not get past say maybe 1/6th of the importing and it hung there for about an hour or better this I only tried once I will say that and I did not try trimming it down to just the servers I frequently connect to maybe that would work I'll have to give it a run tomorrow getting kind of late.

    All of my microsd's are 80+ MBs Samsung Evo 32GB and Sandisk Ultra Plus 64GB my ISP connect is 1GB/1GB fiber attempted on 2 raspberry pi3's and 1 raspberry pi 2 which is the one that it was on initially and working.
