pivpn: Can't get it to work!

Hello,

I’ve been trying to get PiVPN installed over the last forever and I’ve come to the conclusion that I have no idea what I’m doing.

I’ve followed the instructions and forwarded the appropriate port - 1194 on UDP; however, when I try to run it, I simply get timeouts.

I’d love to get this up and running and I’ve also got pi-hole installed.

Here is my debug:

Thanks for posting, because it reminded me that I had left this open! I have it working just fine! it was a corruption on the install on my SD Card. I wiped it and started from scratch without any issues!
