OpenVPN giving an error: Options error: Unrecognized option or missing or extra parameter(s) in my.ovpn:22:...












0














I'm trying to run openvpn on my TP Link WR940N V6 running OpenWRT and I'm getting
Options error: Unrecognized option or missing or extra parameter(s) in my.ovpn:22: keysize (2.4.6)



I went here
https://linux.die.net/man/8/openvpn
and here
https://openvpn.net/community-resources/reference-manual-for-openvpn-2-4/
and both say that the option
keysize 256
is a parameter, so why is this happening?
