Subject: Collectd openvpn plugin: failed to get data from: /var/run/ovpnserver.log
Date: Sat, 19 Jul 2025 23:10:09 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250719211856.160291-1-robin.roevens@disroot.org> (raw)
Hi all
I noticed this error in the systemlog of my ipfire core 197 test
machine:
---
Jul 19 23:44:05 ipfire-test collectd[2452]: openvpn plugin: failed to get data from: /var/run/ovpnserver.log
Jul 19 23:44:05 ipfire-test collectd[2452]: read-function of plugin `openvpn/ovpnserver.log' failed. Will suspend it for 240.000 seconds.

I think this is fixed by changing collectd.vpn config using the new /var/run/openvpn-rw.log, so I created a patch for that.
I don't know if there is functionality in collectd to use the new helper
binary /usr/local/bin/openvpnctrl output instead of the file? If that is
the case, that is then probably a better solution than my patch.
Regards
Robin
