Hi @singhragvendra503 @leginreklaw,
what container version are you guys using (docker inspect --format='{{json .Config.Labels}}' d3vilh/openvpn-server:latest)? Does it fail to create PKI?

Some of the old versions has this issue but it was fixed in "0.5.1".
Could you share the console log of the installation? Would help a lot.

I have the same error and am using 0.5.1

I found a workaround. To resolve the issue, follow these steps:

1. Access the easy-rsa.vars file in the GitHub repository.
2. Manually copy this file into the designated configuration folder. (/etc/openvpn/config/)
3. Once the file is in place, the problem should be resolved.

Worked for me.
