Failed to connect after 1.6.8 upgrade

I'm on MacOSX 10.11.6. After upgrading to 1.6.8, Viscosity stopped being able to connect to my VPN. I get this in OpenVPN log:
Code: Select all
Jan 17 16:42:01 <ip> ovpn-server[9265]: <hostname>/<myip>:60120 [<hostname>] Inactivity timeout (--ping-restart), restarting
Jan 17 16:42:01<ip>  ovpn-server[9265]: <hostname>/<myip>:60120 SIGUSR1[soft,ping-restart] received, client-instance restarting
I can still connect with to my VPN with exactly the same configuration using Tunnelblick.

Hi hokhim,

I recommend checking the OpenVPN log in Viscosity (rather than on the server) for any error messages or warnings:

Ah OK, the logs said that askpass in the config was considered unsafe, so I was able to fix it. Thanks for your help!
