Centos 9 upgrade problem

Hello.

 

I am quite new.

I used Forticlient VPN only with a Centos 8 box with no problems.

Yesterday I upgrade my box to Centos 9 and reinstall  then Forticlien VPN from the this rpm package
https://www.fortinet.com/support/product-downloads/forticlient
as I did on my Centos 8.
Unfortunately, although I have exact the same  configuration as I had on my Centos8, now I can not connect to VPN.
Is there something I should concerned on Centos 9?

 

Thank you in advance.

Hi Christof

I can see message: "Can not connect to VPN server." it's like if the server is not reachable.

Please try with your web browser https://x.x.x.x:port and tell us what do you get (where x.x.x.x:port is your VPN gateway IP and port number).

Hi Cristof

Please redo the test then export FortiClient logs and share them.

Hello,
These are the log files:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1BF2H5rCxbKkM36Gxz7fAR7qmkoRn5Rje/view?usp=sharing

This is what happens:

1. I press button connect.
2. Client goes to "Status: Connecting" with Connect - Disconnect button disappeared.
3. Connect - Disconnect button appears but client is still in "Status: Connecting"
4. Client disconnects and goes to the initial state  for someone to connect.

Thanks in advance.
