Description

When attempting to import OpenVPN-settings from the previous release-version of psense, it just tells me that
that it can't locate the correct XML tags, even tho I've manually checked that all the OpenVPN settings are there.

I can supply the config-file if requested, I just don't want to post it publicly.

Sections of a configuration cannot be restored across different versions, it's always been that way but it may have worked by sheer luck previously. Restoring a section of a config is only supported if you exported the settings from the exact same version.

If you need settings from a previous version, you must upgrade an entire configuration and then export the section you want from a system on the same version.
