Error Code 1 -Connection to server failed
Posted: Wed Nov 22, 2017 4:07 pm
I installed SoftEther Server and it works well.
On my client machine, after setting up the client VPN, initially, I was able to connect to the server.
But now I am not able to connect to the server.
I am getting the message which says,
"Error (Error Code 1):
Connection to the server failed. Check network connection and make sure that address and port number of destination server are correct"
As mentioned in the error message, I checked the address, port number, User Name, Password. Everything is correct.
I really do not know what else to do.
Need resolution to this issue.
Thanks for your help, in advance.

UPDATE: 23-Nov-2017
I have been able to identify the problem area.
The problem seems that my ISP is blocking the SoftEther in some way.
When I changed the ISP, I was able to connect to the VPN server without changing any parameters.
The problematic ISP is the 4G LTE internet provided by Jio in India.
I already have enabled the...
1) VPN over ICMP Server Function and
2) VPN over DNS Server Function (uses UDP port 53)
There should be certainly something I am missing, that need to be configured.
Thanks for the help.
