You might take a look at bug 1910 and bug 1801.

Check /var/log/amahi-app-installer.log for errors.

Sounds like the app may not have installed correctly.

You install and uninstall the openvpn App via the HDA Dashboard.

Have to log into the server via terminal and locate the log file:

Code: Select all

cat /var/log/amahi-app-installer.log

i do not see anything about uninstalling openvpn app from control panel never have so this is not an option, if i had seen an unistall we would not have this problem, i am running on 11 ami server under fedora 27, no uninstall is shown on control panel
it shows me openvpn tester, nothing about uninstalling or anything else

as for the log it cant find file, said that before, i know where to look so that is not the problem

You don't install or uninstall apps from the amahi.org control panel.

Check the install instructions and you will see that it says to log into your HDA at http://hda or by IP address. That's where you will see an Apps tab for install and uninstall.

That's likely your issue. You only need to log into amahi.org after install to purchase apps that have a convenience fee. Those won't show in the HDA dashboard until you do so.
