Hi guys
I can confirm this problem. I updated from core 88 to 89 and the statistics do not work. The permission is also different in my system:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root nobody 0 Apr 22 09:37 /var/run/ovpnserver.log
I changed the ownership to nobody.nobody but till now I don't have any data in it.
Restarting openvpn will change the ownership back to root.nobody...
It seems that openvpn does still write into /var/log/ovpnserver.log in my case. I also can't see the status of a openvpn roadwarrior in the gui. They are all marked as "Getrennt" event /var/log/ovpnserver.log says that two roadwarriors are connected.
My /var/ipfire/ovpn/server.conf looks like this:
#OpenVPN Server conf
daemon openvpnserver writepid /var/run/openvpn.pid #DAN prepare OpenVPN for listening on blue and orange ;local XXXXX dev tun proto udp port 1194 script-security 3 system ifconfig-pool-persist /var/ipfire/ovpn/ovpn-leases.db 3600 client-config-dir /var/ipfire/ovpn/ccd tls-server ca /var/ipfire/ovpn/ca/cacert.pem cert /var/ipfire/ovpn/certs/servercert.pem key /var/ipfire/ovpn/certs/serverkey.pem dh /var/ipfire/ovpn/ca/dh1024.pem server 10.138.84.0 255.255.255.0 tun-mtu 1500 route 10.138.85.0 255.255.255.0 route 10.138.86.0 255.255.255.0 client-to-client mtu-disc yes keepalive 10 60 status-version 1 status /var/log/ovpnserver.log 30 cipher BF-CBC push "dhcp-option DOMAIN XXXXX" push "dhcp-option DNS 192.168.2.1" max-clients 100 tls-verify /usr/lib/openvpn/verify crl-verify /var/ipfire/ovpn/crls/cacrl.pem user nobody group nobody persist-key persist-tun verb 3

I think this issue is related to the box tracking the testing branch.
When Rod reinstalls the box and issue remains, this could be a bug, but i just updtaed some of my boxes to core 89 (no testing branch) and all seems very well. the ovpnserver.log (now under /var/run) has these permissions:
-rw-r--r-- 1 nobody nobody 0 Apr 22 10:03 ovpnserver.log
Rod please report back after reinstalling.
Let me ping Alex about this...
It should be fine that the file is owned by root. It just has to be readable by collectd and writeable by openvpn itself. The status of the RW connections is checked over the telnet management interface of the openvpn daemon.

I was able to track it down to /var/run/ovpnserver.log having ownership root:root, but permissions 600, for some reason. I did the update on another router and it appears to have permissions set to 644, which is more logical since apache needs to be able to read it.
My office router is set to always go into testing branch, so maybe something happened there. I think I'll rebuild the router from scratch, but if anyone else reports something similar, have them look at the ownership of /var/run/ovpnserver.log.

I have Core 89 installed on my router and just noticed something. When I vpn in (OpenVPN, Road Warrior), it does not show up on the vpn list; the entry on the web interface shows the user as disconnected.
Looking at /var/log/ovpnserver.log shows nothing also.
However, I am connected; I can ping a machine on the LAN.
I rebooted the firewall just to make sure I did not do anything weird, but still no changes.
I see the login in /var/log/messages, and /var/log/ovpnserver.log shows it was updated at the correct time, just no entries.
I have saved copies of the logs in question and have been able to recreate the scenario.
