No such file or directory (Options error: --auth-user-pass)

[connorbobonnor]

Hello,

Sorry if Im just being stupid and missing something very clear. I've been searching to try and find an answer to this problem and haven't come up with anything.

Have run into the error: Options error: --auth-user-pass fails with '/config/transmission/openvpn-credentials.txt': No such file or directory (errno=2)

I have:

• confirmed that the openvpn-credentials.txt file is indeed located in the listed directory.
• recreated the file
• tried specifying just the directory (e.g. /config/transmission/)
• tried changing the name of the file (openvpn-credentials.txt, openvpn-credentials)
• chmod 777 'ed all directories that lead to the file

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
