Docker run config used

(this was done on a Synology NAS so I don't have a true docker compose file, providing screenshots)

Current Behavior

Container keeps restarting after a fatal error

Expected Behavior

Container should stay running

How have you tried to solve the problem?

1. removed pointer to VPN credentials and instead pointed to /config directly
2. removed credentials from webUI to see if that happened to be interfering

Log output

HW/SW Environment

- OS: 
- Docker:

Anything else?

Things were working fine in version 4.0.0 but something has changed with config files in 5.0.2.

I even downloaded a new OpenVPN config file from my provider and it's identical to the one that I had. I suspect a path/volume issue is messing things up here.

Will keep trying after I post this issue.

Please read through the documentation and existing issues..this is NOT a container issue, it is a config problem on your end.
Synology are known to cause all kinds of issues here..
your logs are incomplete

Went through the documentation and a lot of other issues on here -- seems there is a lot that changed between versions. Also the container image size is twice as big as version 4 (that alone should make it clear that a lot has changed).

I have started the container up from scratch and am slowly adding all the functionality back to it that I had before. It is working as intended.

For anyone who tries this: you will likely need to do the same when migrating from version 4 to 5.
