Server not running (systemd)
After configuring the server (file /etc/openvpn/server.conf, the server does not start:
service openvpn start # or systemctl start openvpn
service openvpn status # show active (exited)
ps faux | grep openvpn # no service running
service openvpn stop

systemctl daemon-reload
service openvpn start
ps faux | grep openvpn # ok!
