Using OPENVPN_OPTS breaks container

[Groofster]

I found out this is more a 'pebkac' kind of error. The syntax in docker-compose is slightly different from a normal docker run -e PARAMETER. Changing the OPENVPN_OPTS line to following made it happily accept it (it's all in the quotes):

environment:
- 'OPENVPN_OPTS=--mute-replay-warnings --mssfix 1432'

This (non) issue can be closed. Thanx for your time, sorry to have bothered you with my personal f-up.

Thanks for reporting the issue, i'll fix the documentation to make it more clear

[bubuntux]

the order of the parameters shouldn't matter, can you provide logs and command line used?

docker-compose.yaml

version: '3.5'

services:
nordvpn:
image: "bubuntux/nordvpn"
container_name: nordvpn
restart: unless-stopped
stdin_open: true
cap_add:
- NET_ADMIN
devices:
- /dev/net/tun
volumes:
- /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
environment:
- TZ=Europe/Amsterdam
- USER=
- PASS=
- COUNTRY=Netherlands;
- NETWORK=10.10.1.0/24
- CATEGORY=P2P
- OPENVPN_OPTS='--mute-replay-warnings --mssfix 1432'

Gives me the following error and a restarting container:

Connecting ( '--mute-replay-warnings --mssfix 1432' )...
Options error: Unrecognized option or missing or extra parameter(s) in [CMD-LINE]:1: mute-replay-warnings --mssfix 1432 (2.4.6)

Swithing the OPENVPN_OPTS gives the following error:

Connecting ( ' --mssfix 1432 --mute-replay-warnings' )...
Options error: the --down directive should have at most 1 parameter. To pass a list of arguments as one of the parameters, try enclosing them in double quotes ("").
