From this, it looks like the "syscon9" file is not in the ".../ccd/" 
directory?

Also, isn't this file supposed to be on the server?

This seems to indicate it can't actually find the file 
"/etc/openvpn/ccd/syscon9"

This file needs to be located on the server, not on the client, as it's the 
server that determines the IP-address for the client.
