Description

  1. Create an OpenVPN Server using the UI with multiple "custom options", e.g. two Push directives like
    push "dhcp-option DNS 10.0.0.53" 
    push "dhcp-option DNS 10.1.0.53" 
    
  2. Save the config
  3. Open the config
  4. The custom options lost its newlines:
    push "dhcp-option DNS 10.0.0.53"push "dhcp-option DNS 10.1.0.53" 
    
  5. -> Saving the config without correcting the error stops the OpenVPN server from starting

Using pfSense+ 21.05.2-RELEASE (not select-able in the drop-down here)

  • Status changed from New to Not a Bug

This is expected behavior and not a bug. As stated in the text under that field and in the documentation, directives in that box must be separated by a semicolon.
