The iOS OpenVPN client balks at the ovpn files produced by this.
Specifically, it doesn't like the lines with '[inline]' in them. To get it to work, I have to remove those lines while retaining the actual cert data encapsulated in their respective xml style angle brackets.
Additionally, I have to add a 'key-direction' line.
Forked - added server cipher and auth digest for those that have locked down the service a bit more and require clients to provide matching values.
Today i got similar problem. I wrote app on java which is able to find in current directory all the files *.conf, ca.crt, ta.key, *.crt and *.key and correctly joining to *.ovpn files with corresponding sections. If you need it, send my request to [email protected]
EDIT: See my fork which seems to be working on iOS 9.3.3.
@graysky2: Cannot find your fork.
I successfully created the client.ovpn file then ran this command openvpn3 session-start --config <absolute_path_to_client.ovpn>
then it gave me this error config-import: ** ERROR ** ERR_PROFILE_GENERIC: [inline], [inline], [inline], [inline]
what am i doing wrong please help me..

Check https://gist.github.com/renatolfc/18e428b5a758df24455b#gistcomment-1764360. Syntax might have changed. You might be able to get away with removing the lines with [inline]
