Hi all,

I've been trying to set up VPN on Demand for a while now and it's still not working. I've used this guide for the config http://simonguest.com/2013/03/22/on-demand-vpn-using-openvpn-for-ios (I can only access this through archive.org), as well as https://www.derman.com/blogs/iOS-OpenVPN-OnDemand-Setup. And keep on getting ca certificate as undefined errors.

OpenVPN core 3.0.11 ios arm64 64-bit built on Apr 15 2016 14:13:50

So I tried to leave the ca certificate in the .ovpn file by editing with textedit and leaving the ca out of the .mobileconfig and this was my error insted

Hello!

 

I'm not sure why you want to set that up, but just in case, there's other guides for iOS if you need it . Although VPN on Demand does sound nifty. Your links didn't work for me either sadly.

Hi there, are you new to AirVPN? Many of your questions are already answered in this guide. You may also read the Eddie Android FAQ.
Moderators do not speak on behalf of AirVPN. Only the Official Staff account does. Please also do not run Tor Exit Servers behind AirVPN, thank you.
Did you make a guide or how-to for something? Then contact me to get it listed in my new user guide's Guides Section, so that the community can find it more easily.

Thanks, I've already used those settings and it did reduce my number of disconnections but I would still get Auth errors. It seems to be switching from Wi-Fi to mobile data, and it becomes even more of a problem when I have 2 other connections running. I remember an old post here that was takling about it, iOS would have 2 connections running for both Wi-Fi and Mobile which can cause a max connections issue.

 

When OpenVPN disconnects there is no way of automaticaly reconnecting unless you use VPNonDemand and certificates.

 

Thanks.

I managed to get openvpn connect on iOS to stay connected to the airvpn servers. Here are my ovpn settings I use. 

Added "remote-random" thank you giganerd.

And here is a photo of the openvpn settings I use. "these are located under iOS settings" try to copy theses settings to your iOS device to see if it fixes your problem.

You forgot a remote-random, otherwise you will be always connected to the first IP and only if it fails OpenVPN will move on to the second.

Would this be correct? If not where do I add remote-random?
