openvpn r2.4.7 in OpenPli 7.2 fails to recognise my certificate

I am able to establish an openvpn connection with my vpn provider on Zgemma 7h / OpenTAV 6.1 - (this image is running openvpn r2.4.3 )

Using multiboot, i switched to image OpenPli 7.2 that i noticed is running openvpn r2.4.7 … using the SAME configuration and credentials, i have now a failure in openvpn recognizing the certificate

is there any known fix to this problem ?

alternatively can install the older openvpn r2.4.3 under openPli 7.2 ?

found the problem … a matter of setting the date/time in the box
