Get the logs
There are three log files each for a different component of the client:
- The systray log:
/Users/<your user>/Library/Preferences/leap/systray.log - The priviledged helper:
/Applications/RiseupVPN/RiseupVPN.app/Contents/helper/helper.log - The openvpn process:
/Applications/RiseupVPN/RiseupVPN.app/Contents/helper/openvpn.log
When reporting a bug it is very useful to include the log files.
