Diagnostics

The Diagnostics tab (and ovpn-gui doctor CLI command) provides tools for checking the health of the OpenVPN 3 Linux D-Bus services and troubleshooting connection problems.

Verifies that each OpenVPN 3 D-Bus service is running and responding:

  • Configuration service
  • Session manager
  • Network configuration service
  • Backend process manager
Terminal window
ovpn-gui doctor

Validates that the adapter layer method signatures match what the live OpenVPN 3 installation actually exposes:

Terminal window
ovpn-gui doctor dbus-surface
Terminal window
ovpn-gui doctor logs

Exports a redacted bundle (no secrets, no profile content) containing service status, recent logs, environment information, and app settings.

Terminal window
ovpn-gui doctor export

The bundle is written to the current directory as a .tar.gz file.
