Connecting to management Interface failed error on Windows 10

Hello everyone,

In March In iused the OpenVPN 2.5.1-l601 amd64 installer to install the OpenVPN client and had been connecting to VPN successfully for the next two months. On May 13 I ran Windows updates and installed the kb5003173 update (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/top … e249f52527). After rebooting I was no longer able to connect to VPN.

I continually got the following error: Connecting to management Interface failed. (the following screenshot shows a different version of the client because i found that screenshot online)

When I look at the verb 3 logs I see the following:

Code: Select all

Add 'AES-256-CBC' to --data-ciphers or change --cipher 'AES-256-CBC' to --data-ciphers-fallback 'AES-256-CBC' to silence this warning.

I found this on the forums but its several years old and using an earlier version of the client- https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/ticket/1051

Has anyone seen the «Connecting to management Interface failed» on a modern version of Windows 10?

I continually got the following error: Connecting to management Interface failed.

Actually, your log shows that you were disconnected not a failure to connect.

Thanks TinCanTech.

I found a screenshot online to show the error I was referring to:

That screenshot was not from my machine but my machine is saying the same thing. The error is saying that connecting to the management interface failed.

Your log file is more important than a random screen shot you found online …

Try again or re-install or something.

The screenshot was not random. I included it because that is the same exact response I get with my client.

Before submitting my original post I already tried uninstalling and reinstalling. I also tried uninstalling an earlier version, 2.4.9. In both cases my vpn connection attempting is erroring/disconnecting with exit code 1 without event prompting me for credentials.

Has anyone seen anything like this?

I uninstalled 2.4.9, rebooted, and reinstalled 2.5.1. When I tried to launch the connection it did not prompt me for credentials and I got the following logs which repeared infinitely until I finally hit the disconnect button:

So I figured out the issue and I’m embarrassed to say that it has nothing to do with OpenVPN or the Windows update. I recently migrated from one password manager to another. During the migration process it looks like the export/import added a character my OpenVPN password but I hadn’t noticed that due to the length of the password.
**facepalm**

There is no need to feel embarrassment, with a little guidance you solved the problem yourself.

And then you also fed back to the community, Kudos

We all have to start somewhere.

Check the config file location and command line options first
and membership in OpenVPNAdministrators group after that as
the latter could be a slow process for active directory users.

When connection to domain controllers is poor or unavailable, checking
the group membership is slow and causes timeouts in the GUI (Trac
1051). However, in cases where the config is in the global directory,
no group membership check should be required. The re-ordering here
avoids the redundant check in such cases.

In addition to this, its also proposed to improve the timeout handling
in the GUI, but this change is still useful as it will eliminate the
problem for many users.

Instead save the error and send it on only if user authorization also

OpenVPN users reported getting the Connecting to management interface failed error and it seems to be due to the core process.
You can download an executable file that will try to reconnect to the management interface and fix any error that pops up.
Don’t miss out on our section on why you should always use a VPN.

OpenVPN implements OSI layer 2 or 3 secure network extensions using the industry-standard SSL/TLS protocol, as well as supports flexible client authentication methods based on certificates, smart cards, and/or username/password credentials.

It is a free and open-source software project developed by the Linux Foundation that can be accessed at any point in time. However, lately, it has been reported that the Connecting to management interface failed error popped up on users’ screens.

Thus, we will show you today how to fix the Connecting to management interface failed error, right after we see how OpenVPN works. Follow along!

How does OpenVPN work?

A Virtual Private Network (VPN) connects your company’s internet connection to your private network over the public internet, allowing you to work more securely and efficiently.

Protection through a virtual private network is an important component of a layered security protocol that is vital for securing both company data and an employee’s personal information.

OpenVPN products provide an almost limitless number of configuration choices. Small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs) and enterprises of all sizes use OpenVPN Cloud or OpenVPN Access Server to configure the exact access and granularity that they require for their organization.

The term Open-source refers to software that is freely available to the public. OpenVPN makes use of virtual private network technology to secure and encrypt data delivered over the internet. The key exchange protocol for its unique VPN protocol is SSL/TLS.

With more than 60 million downloads since its inception in 2001, it has established itself as the de facto standard in the open-source networking field.

How we test, review and rate?

We have worked for the past 6 months on building a new review system on how we produce content. Using it, we have subsequently redone most of our articles to provide actual hands-on expertise on the guides we made.

For more details you can read how we test, review, and rate at WindowsReport.

What can I do when Connecting to management interface failed?

1. Retry on management timeout

Fortunately, users found a way to fix the Connecting to management interface failed error. Thus head to Github repository with the file you need to download.
Now scroll down and click on the link named openvpn-gui-timeout.exe in order to download it.
Once the file is downloaded, double-click on it to run it and wait for it to complete the process. What the file will do is retry to connect to management and fix any error that pops up, including the Connecting to management interface failed error.

That’s it. Sometimes, errors can be fixed by downloading executable files that attempt to fix the error at hand. Fortunately, this was the case for you too, without having to complicate things.

2. Use another VPN service

VPNs have quickly established themselves as essential software solutions for customers who want to secure their online privacy while also protecting their devices from hackers. In addition, we believe that Private Internet Access (PIA) is the greatest in the industry.

A super-intuitive user interface wraps around PIA VPN, making it easy to use on a variety of platforms such as Windows, Mac OS X, Android, Linux, and even straight in your web browser.

No matter whether you’re securely browsing the web, downloading torrents or streaming video, or gaming with buddies, it provides superb connection speeds. If you get sick of the Connecting to management interface failed error, we recommend that you check out PIA.

The primary function of a virtual private network is to conceal your internet activity. It is used to protect against hackers and snoopers on public networks, but it may also be used to hide your IP address, browsing activities, and personal data on any Wi-Fi network, including those at home.

And the more digitized our lives become, the more likely it is that our personal information may be compromised.

Someone could be watching or following your online activities at any time, from your ISP (internet service provider) to organizations gathering data to monetize or sell to hackers attempting to steal your personal information for malevolent purposes.

Hackers can simply intercept and read anything you send and receive when you are connected to an unsecured public Wi-Fi network.

While the majority of your internet traffic is unimportant, it may contain vital information such as your bank account data, credit card numbers, or login credentials. Attackers cast wide nets, which is why using free public Wi-Fi puts you at greater risk of being attacked.

OpenVPN – это программное обеспечение с открытым исходным кодом, которое позволяет создать защищенное соединение между компьютерами через интернет. Оно обеспечивает безопасную передачу данных, шифруя их и маскируя IP-адрес отправителя и получателя. Однако, иногда бывает, что не удается подключиться к интерфейсу управления OpenVPN, что может вызывать некоторые проблемы и затруднять работу с программой.

Если у вас возникла проблема с подключением к интерфейсу управления OpenVPN, есть несколько действий, которые вы можете предпринять. Во-первых, проверьте ваше подключение к Интернету. Убедитесь, что вы подключены и имеете доступ к сети. Если ваше подключение работает исправно, но вы по-прежнему не можете подключиться к интерфейсу управления OpenVPN, приступайте к следующему шагу.

Возможно, причина проблемы заключается в неправильно настроенных параметрах OpenVPN. Проверьте файл конфигурации OpenVPN и убедитесь, что все параметры указаны правильно. Обратите внимание на адрес сервера, порт, логин и пароль. Если вы не уверены, что параметры указаны верно, свяжитесь с администратором сервера, чтобы уточнить нужную информацию. Если все настройки верны, но проблема по-прежнему не решена, попробуйте следующий шаг.

Помимо этого, может быть полезно проверить наличие обновлений программы OpenVPN. Возможно, проблему исправили в новой версии, и вам просто нужно обновить вашу установленную копию. Обновление программы может быть доступно на официальном сайте OpenVPN или через менеджер пакетов вашей операционной системы.

Проверка файла конфигурации

Если у вас возникли проблемы с подключением к интерфейсу управления OpenVPN, первым шагом необходимо проверить файл конфигурации. Он содержит все необходимые настройки для установки соединения и может быть причиной проблемы.

Вот несколько рекомендаций по проверке файла конфигурации:

Проверьте синтаксис — убедитесь, что файл конфигурации не содержит синтаксических ошибок. Можно воспользоваться инструментами проверки синтаксиса, доступными для вашей операционной системы.
Проверьте пути к файлам — убедитесь, что пути к сертификатам, ключам и другим файлам, используемым конфигурацией, указаны правильно. Проверьте, что файлы действительно существуют в указанных папках.
Проверьте права доступа к файлам — убедитесь, что у вас есть права на чтение и запись для файлов конфигурации и файлов, на которые ссылается конфигурация.
Проверьте настройки портов — убедитесь, что настройки портов в файле конфигурации соответствуют настройкам вашего сервера OpenVPN.

Если после выполнения всех вышеперечисленных рекомендаций проблема с подключением к интерфейсу управления OpenVPN не была решена, вам следует обратиться за помощью к специалисту или проконсультироваться с командой поддержки OpenVPN.

Проверка наличия необходимых сертификатов

Если вы не можете подключиться к интерфейсу управления OpenVPN, одной из возможных причин может быть отсутствие необходимых сертификатов.

Для проверки наличия сертификатов выполните следующие шаги:

Откройте папку, в которую вы сохранили конфигурационные файлы OpenVPN.
Найдите файлы с расширением .crt и .key.

Если вы видите файлы с такими расширениями, значит у вас есть необходимые сертификаты.

Если же файлов с расширением .crt и .key не обнаружено, вам необходимо получить эти сертификаты.

Обычно сертификаты предоставляются администратором VPN-сервера. Если вы являетесь администратором VPN-сервера, вам необходимо создать и подписать сертификаты самостоятельно.

При наличии необходимых сертификатов вы можете продолжить процесс настройки и подключения к интерфейсу управления OpenVPN.

Если у Вас возникла проблема с подключением к интерфейсу управления OpenVPN, первым шагом решения проблемы будет проверка доступности сервера OpenVPN. Для этого выполните следующие действия:

Убедитесь, что сервер OpenVPN запущен и работает. Проверьте статус сервера с помощью команды:
```
sudo systemctl status openvpn
```
Если сервер работает, вы увидите сообщение о его статусе «active» или «running». Если же сервер не запущен, выполните команду:
```
sudo systemctl start openvpn
```
Убедитесь, что сервер доступен по сети. Введите в консоли команду:
```
ping [адрес сервера]
```
Замените «[адрес сервера]» на реальный IP-адрес вашего сервера OpenVPN. Если получите ответы от сервера, значит он доступен и работает.
Проверьте наличие фаерволла на сервере OpenVPN. Убедитесь, что порты, необходимые для работы OpenVPN (по умолчанию 1194), открыты для входящих соединений. Для этого выполните команду:
```
sudo ufw status
```
Если фаерволл включен и порты закрыты, добавьте правила для открытия портов командами:
```
sudo ufw allow 1194/udp
```
```
sudo ufw allow 1194/tcp
```

После выполнения всех перечисленных выше действий проверьте подключение к интерфейсу управления OpenVPN. Если проблема не решена, рекомендуется обратиться за помощью к системному администратору или провайдеру услуг OpenVPN.

Проверка прав доступа пользователя

Если вы не можете подключиться к интерфейсу управления OpenVPN, одной из причин может быть ограничение доступа у учетной записи пользователя.

Чтобы проверить права доступа пользователя, выполните следующие действия:

Шаг 1:	Убедитесь, что права доступа для пользователя, с которым вы пытаетесь подключиться, настроены правильно.
Шаг 2:	Проверьте, имеет ли пользователь необходимые привилегии для работы с OpenVPN. Пользователь должен быть добавлен в группу с правами доступа к управлению OpenVPN.
Шаг 3:	Если вы работаете под учетной записью пользователя с ограниченными правами, попробуйте запустить программу управления OpenVPN с правами администратора.

Если после выполнения всех указанных шагов проблема не решается, рекомендуется обратиться к администратору системы или технической поддержке для более подробной проверки и настройки доступа пользователя.

Переустановка OpenVPN

Если у вас возникли проблемы с подключением к интерфейсу управления OpenVPN, можно попробовать переустановить программу. Вот шаги, которые помогут вам в этом процессе:

Перейдите в «Панель управления» вашего устройства.
Откройте «Программы и компоненты» или «Установка/удаление программ».
Найдите OpenVPN в списке установленных программ.
Щелкните правой кнопкой мыши по OpenVPN и выберите «Удалить» или «Изменить/удалить».
Следуйте инструкциям на экране, чтобы завершить процесс удаления.
После удаления OpenVPN перезагрузите устройство, чтобы очистить все оставшиеся файлы и настройки.
После перезагрузки устройства загрузите последнюю версию OpenVPN с официального сайта разработчика.
Запустите установочный файл и следуйте инструкциям на экране для установки OpenVPN.
После завершения установки попробуйте подключиться к интерфейсу управления OpenVPN снова.

Если проблема с подключением все еще не решена, рекомендуется обратиться за помощью к технической поддержке OpenVPN или проконсультироваться с опытным специалистом.

Openvpn users reported getting the connecting to management interface failed error and it seems to be due to the core process. you can download an executable file that will try to reconnect to the management interface and fix any error that pops up. don’t miss out on our section on why you should always use a vpn. The standard openvpn configuration includes an item, key direction, which controls which side begins the key negotiation (which is where your connection is getting stuck). i don’t see this in your client config file. try adding the following to your client config file: key direction 1. And this is the log from my most recent connection: mon jan 16 13:45:08 2017 openvpn 2.4.0 x86 64 w64 mingw32 [ssl (openssl)] [lzo] [lz4] [pkcs11] [aead] built on dec 27 2016 mon jan 16 13:45:08 2017 windows version 6.2 (windows 8 or greater) 64bit mon jan 16 13:45:08 2017 library versions: openssl 1.0.2i 22 sep 2016, lzo 2.09 enter management. Workaround: clean the temp folder of the user in which the openvpn connect app is not starting opening: win r > %temp% > ctrl a > shift delete > enter. after this, reboot the machine and try again. reboot the laptop. reboot the laptop. install the latest version of the openvpn connect app for windows. installer link.

We initially thought it was a firewall issue and turned off the firewall, adjusted the firewall settings, reset the firewall, etc.i attempted to append the config file with the askpass setting, but i believe i may have entered it incorrectly into the file (if this is indeed a solution, it would be helpful to know how to correctly format it). The openvpn connect client uses this interface to obtain the necessary certificates and configuration to start the openvpn connection when you are using a server locked profile. you will not be needing the xml rpc interface when you use user locked and auto login profiles.
