I was trying to follow the instructions to add an outgoing VPN connection in the official docs. I clicked the “Import Tunnel” button and erroneously selected a .ovpn file I downloaded from my provider (AirVPN in this case) instead of a WireGuard .conf file.

 

I am guessing since this was the wrong type of file something broke, since it redirected me to a blank page. Now whenever I select “VPN Manager” in the settings tab, the attached screenshot is all I see. This issue has persisted through a refresh of the web UI and a reboot of my server.

 

Is there some way I can delete this tunnel manually without the use of the UI?

To be safe, make a backup of your flash drive first. Main -> Boot -> Flash -> Flash Device Settings -> Flash Backup

 

The files are stored on the flash drive in the config/wireguard directory. Delete everything in that directory (but leave the directory itself) to start over with WireGuard.

 

To do this from the web terminal type:

rm -r /boot/config/wireguard/*

( Be extremely careful typing that command! A space in the wrong place will wreak havoc. )

Thank you @ljm42 that worked!

you appear to have other corruption on unraid which is why you would need to delete the wireguard fold from the flash drive and reboot to reconfigure and connect.

In theory while the structure and data is a bit different in the file now due to version, in post version changing the file extension was enouth.. This is not the case anymore.
