Although I didn't have a chance to declare where that certificate is located (it is in a local folder in my IMac), since no connection or configuration window, -or any kind of interface- is available. Perhaps the OpenVPN IS working, but can't find the certificate. Several OK-and-close windows later, those processes are self- terminated.

If I click in the OK button of that window, it closes (both processes keep open, one of them with an additional sub-process count:about 27 right now in the red one, 10 in the other), but then the notification window appears again after a couple of minutes. After some seconds one of those processes turns red for 'not responding'.

If I then re-start the openVPN Connect app, one process appears in activity Monitor, then after a couple of minutes this 'problem connecting.' window appears again, as well as a second process in Activity Monitor. When a kill those processes in Activity Monitor, the 'problem connecting. After some minutes on of these processes turn red, showing that is 'not responding'.

to a previous version as this openVPN was the only VPN client that successfully connected to our ClearOS VPN server, but this downgrade it is not an easy thing to do, and quite risky, I think.ītw: I tried to report this error to Apple, but support says It cannot cover my computer: a brand new one, Apple!Īn update on the status of this: The second process in Activity Monitor happens once the 'there was a problem connecting to server XXX' notification window appears (the volume that failed to mount because no connection was established). I'm quite troubled with this because I urgently need to be connected to my office in these lockdown times.

An annoying message comes every minute saying 'there was a problem connecting to server '(IP address)' a connection that I don't know how to tell the Mac to forget. I even permanently mounted a couple of volumes of remote server of my office, that now are trying to reconnect and obviously failing, since the server is not found. No icon is seen in the launchpad after starting the app, and the connection window is not shown on the desktop, although Activity Monitor does show a couple of openVPN process running, but one of them with an error (sorry, my system is in Spanish).: in red: 'OpenVPN Connect (Not Responding)' (I cannot attach a screen capture to show this). version of Big Sur was running before this update). update to Big Sur 11.5.2, openVPN connect stopped working (unfortunately, I didn't record which O.S.

Wouldn't you know it.Big Sur has eliminated the Network Config utility and you now have to use a 3rd party product to do the scan.In a brand new iMac M1 (one week of use, very few other software installed) I was running openVPN Connect without issues. The idea was to see what Avast changed that might be altered to get around the App Store connect issue. So the work-around is to boot into Big Sur Safe Mode whenever you need to download anything from the Apple store, if you don't want to have to disable Avast Password (always dangerous).īTW, I went to the Big Sur Terminal utility to launch Network Config so I could do a port scan before Avast Password was launched and then another after it launched. The upshot of all of this is that there will be no resolution to the problem. However, the iTunes Store in Music won't connect to the Apple Store either when Avast Password is launched. Further, App Store is no longer supported in Big Sur, since those functions have been moved to the Music App.

They stated that Avast Password is no longer available for Mac OS per the Avast website (true). After that, I was back to the blank screen 'no connection' mode for the App Store. And then when I booted out of Safe Mode into a Big Sur normal load, App Store worked normally until I launched Avast Password. I found that in Big Sur Safe Mode the App Store worked normally. After I upgraded to Big Sur, App Store would launch but not connect. I'm running Avast Passwords on Mac OS Big Sur 11.5.2.
