Hi all,
I followed this tutorial: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-an-openvpn-server-on-debian-8
now I’m stuck with this error when connecting from my client (Linux) “Fri Sep 18 19:11:04 2015 us=643248 /sbin/ip route add IPOFMYDROPLET/32 via CONNECTINGIP RTNETLINK answers: File exists”
and every connection drops, web , ssh, anything.
I guess I have an issue in routing, due to this error and to this route -n output.

Hello,
What I usually do is to use the OpenVPN image from the Marketplace here:
https://marketplace.digitalocean.com/apps/openvpn-access-server
It works out of the box and is really quick to setup.
