sudo instavpn psk set blablabla
Restarting VPN server...
failed to start openswan IKE daemon - the following error occured:
can not load config '/etc/ipsec.conf': /etc/ipsec.conf:45: syntax error, unexpected STRING, expecting $end [LOCAL IP ADRESS]
Error!

If server have more than one IP you can get that error, if fix this with manual edit /etc/ipsec.conf (remove second IP)

All new DO droplets have 2 ip (public, private)

Can you make docker image based ubuntu? Or Dockerfile?

For ensure the normal operation of vps.

No matter what I set the password,it alway prompt" All fields must contain alphanumeric characters only and have length between 6 and 32".I tried all combinations.

Подскажите, куда копать. Ubuntu 14.04.3 x64

How to stop and uninstall it?

Do you realy clean file rc.local before add string running your script and removing all strings in this file?

Hello,

I'm a newbie in VPN. I've installed the instaVPN on my server. I have an access to the web panel where I can create users.

How can I set up the VPN connection to the server from my laptop?

Best

Alright so the whole package worked pretty well. Then today I tried to connect and got this error :

Which means : "The L2TP-VPN server didn't respond. Try reconnecting."
I can still SSH into the server and do instavpn list. I triple checked the credentials, they all work.
Any idea ?

On minimal build of Ubuntu there no python and cron in standard packages.

How can i make instavpn friendly with tor? (I have tor and instavpn on one server but i have no idea what should i do to make all trafic going throgh tor (PC->VPN->TOR->Internet))

Здравствуйте.

Делаю как тут https://kb.iweb.com/hc/en-us/articles/230267348 , но при подключении к серверу, у меня тупа не работает интернет, ничего не пингуется.

Админ панель работает, пользователь есть ,общий ключ тоже, а вот с подключением беда.

If eth0 is private network and eth1 is public network, SERVERIP will be set to a private IP.
After fix SERVERIP, the iptables rule is still not work.

Hello!
Unfortunately, sip client can't connect to public sip-service (for international calls).

Hello,
is it possible to assign static address with respect to mac address when I connects to the server?
I use the chain of instavpn and mosh to create reliable ssh connection between machines behind NAT's, so each time dependent on who first connected - it starts to assign addresses from 172.16.1.30, so is it possible to make some changes manually in some config file to make a static list of addresses?

thanks!

Hi everyone,

I've been working on updating InstaVPN. I managed to get everything working, except the VPN authentication.

The authentication fails and on syslog I get this:

You can find my fork here: https://github.com/dgadelha/instavpn

It has support for Ubuntu 16.04+ (systemd), I also fixed some bugs like the character length, updated all dependencies (including jade -> pug), also probably the issue is that openswan had to be replaced with strongswan, but they said that the configuration files are compatible.

The panel now runs on port 34297.

CC to the guys who were asking for 16.04 support: @dimanao @iShift @Sovunito @wobondar @weilii @erhosen @ahapxor @Darfol @wannaphongcom @alex-roman

It would be nice to have console command to change popular 8080 port to something else.

Hi, i have changed some checks in your install scripts and install it on debian 7.7, but web ui not running:
root@vpn:/etc# instavpn web mode on
/bin/sh: 1: start: not found
Error!
root@vpn:/etc#
but server is working and i can control it via command line.
NodeJS installed by curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup | sudo bash -
I think that the problem is in the startup script nodejs.

Hello,
I have setup instavpn on my server, it works well on windows8, but doesn't work on iOS.

I created new Ubuntu 14.04 droplet on Digital Ocean. I got error:
14:19:49 INFO: Installing web UI...
14:19:49 CRITICAL: Failed installing web UI
CRITICAL ERROR!

Please tell me - Really set on 16.04 LTS ?

It will be nice if someone write tutorials, in readme or someting else, for most popular PC(Win/Mac/Ubuntu/Linux and mobile (Android, iOS, WM) OS. Sometimes, its not easy create secure co nnection to our VPN server.

I changed IP and password for privacy reasons, but here goes.

Basically the question is listed in the topic. Given that WEB UI is used for generation of new users, passwords transferred over HTTP is not secure. Is that hard to implement secure HTTPS server with self-signed certificate?

Just wanted to say thanks. Great job ! 👍

Have you ever thought how to run multiple VPN Server in a container. Obviously with L3 Container Networking to give every container/pod a separate routable IP.

Any idea if this could be made compatible with 15.04 ? I'd be glad to help.

Захожу в веб-интерфейс, перехожу на вкладку "Пользователи", нажимаю "Сохранить" и вижу:
"Все поля должны быть длиной от 6 до 32 символов и содержать только латинские буквы и цифры".

А всё потому, что при открытии формы сразу же добавляется новая пустая строка, и проходит валидацию.

Добавьте плз проверку на заполненность/не заполненность строк, и если строка пустая - пропускать её при валидации.

Don't open web UI (IP:8080). Console access work.
Ubuntu 14.04.

Please, add support of Ubuntu 12.04

Hi,

Awesome working vpn thanks for it.

I can connect with windows 10 easily, but I cannot connect with my android phone (version 6.0)

Also my mikrotik router can connect but it does not resolve any adresses.

Any help?

Thanks.

Installed on a freshly created DigitalOcean droplet (Ubuntu 14.04 x64).

Created a VPN connection in Windows 8.1 with default parameters, just changed Pre-Shared Key and chose L2TP/IPsec.

With these parameters I keep getting an error 789.

Maybe I'm missing something.
