Welcome to the ovpnview wiki! Installation notes:

Apache with modpython is required to begin installation.

On a Debian, you can get the modpython like this:

• $ sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-python*

Create fetch ovpnview source

• $ sudo git clone git://github.com/mezgani/ovpnview.git*

Desativate Python handler on css and img directories by setting SetHandler None

• $ sudo sh -c 'cat > /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/ovpnview'*

<Location /var/www/ovpnview/img>
  SetHandler None
</location>
<Location /var/www/ovpnview/css>
  SetHandler None
</location>
<Location /var/www/ovpnview/js>
  SetHandler None
</location>

Reload the httpd daemon

• $ sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload*

After, please make sure that the management openvpn server is active, if not insert the line above into the openvpn server's config and restart the daemon management 127.0.0.1 5000 /etc/openvpn/password.txt

• $ sudo echo "management 127.0.0.1 5000 /etc/openvpn/password.txt" >> /etc/openvpn/server.conf*

the file /etc/openvpn/password.txt must contain your favorite password. to make ovpnview work you have also to edit the main.py file, and modify the global variables

• username: * "your login here"
• password:* "your password "
• host: * "the ip of the management openvpn server"
• port:* "the port of the management openvpn server"
• vpnpasswd:* "the password of the management openvpn server"

That completes the setup! You can begin viewing your new script, so point your browser to http://your-server/ovpnview/

Have fun,
