Problem Selecting Region

[faceoff34]

This script is a huge help, thanks for putting this together. Everything was working fine until a few days ago. Now, the only way I can get things to work is if I have my REGION=Germany. If I change it to any other region (such as REGION=US Midwest in my case), I get an error message when I look in the docker PIA log:

Starting Unbound to connect to Cloudflare DNS 1.1.1.1 at its TLS endpoint...DONE,
Starting OpenVPN using tcp with normal encryption,
Options error: Unrecognized option or missing or extra parameter(s) in [CMD-LINE]:1: config (2.4.4),
Use --help for more information.

when I run --help it returns this error:

Wed Apr 18 02:09:29 2018 WARNING: cannot stat file '/auth.conf': No such file or directory (errno=2)
Options error: --auth-user-pass fails with '/auth.conf': No such file or directory (errno=2)
Options error: Please correct these errors.
Use --help for more information.

Any idea on how to get this working? Thanks!

Thanks for your comment!

You probably didn't mount auth.conf at the right place as it should now be at the root /auth.conf and no longer at /pia/auth.conf as before (recent updates I made).

Make sure you have the latest version as I've been reworking quite a bit these last 2-3 days. It's stable now.

docker pull qmcgaw/private-internet-access

I have tried with TCP normal in US West and it works for me. Let me know how it goes.

I deleted the container and image and tried to install/run again with the same error. It works perfectly for region names that don't have a space. Sweden, Netherlands, Singapore all work fine. Any region that has a space in the name (US Midwest, UK London, AU Sydney) all give me the same error.

I installed docker on a fresh machine and pulled the image and have the same problem. It works with regions with no space and does not work with regions that have a space.

Below is my docker-compose.yml. Like I said, before a few days ago, that same path form the auth.conf worked fine.

Thanks again for all your help!

So sorry, silly mistake on my side. I forgot to use quotes around a shell script variable. I tested it with your docker-compose as well as other regions and it works now. Happy VPNing !
