As I have no idea on how to further troubleshoot this, can anyone give instructions on how to debug this. I'Ve updated the machine from 2.6.0 release to 2_7_0-n255866-686c8d3c1f0
AS far as I can see, there are no not-working things it is hust annoying.

Looks like it's one of a common set of errors we've seen where the config has no (or a partial/empty) OpenVPN config so the code that makes the interface list in the package is erroring out.
Should be an easy fix.

OK I've tried but I can't reproduce this. The only thing I can think of is that somehow your system was trying to execute the old version of the package code from 2.6.0 while it was running on 2.7.0. So it may have been a glitch during the upgrade or maybe something happened where the package didn't update (or updated after this error).
The fix in #13775 is good and working, and I can't make it crash no matter what the config looks like.

This is strange as I get this error every time I log into the web interface. I've reinstalled the package and now the error is gone. It seems to me that something went wrong during the update which was resolvable with a reinstallation

Yes, it's consistent with the package not updating during the upgrade. Updating the package to the current (fixed) code fixed it. So it's not a bug in this package, but something that went wrong during your upgrade.
