Mango router - Can't start PrivateVPN

I successfully downloaded and installed the zip file of ovpn files for PrivateVPN (which I have been using on Windows PCs for a number of years). I then select the desired server (PrivateVPN offers a large number, in different countries). However, when I try to start the connection, the router gives me the following information:

library versions: OpenSSL 1.0.2o 27 Mar 2018, LZO 2.10
Restart pause, 5 second(s)
SIGHUP[soft,init_instance] received, process restarting
Note: option tun-ipv6 is ignored because modern operating systems do not need special IPv6 tun handling anymore.
OpenVPN 2.4.5 mipsel-openwrt-linux-gnu [SSL (OpenSSL)] [LZO] [LZ4] [EPOLL] [MH/PKTINFO] [AEAD]
library versions: OpenSSL 1.0.2o 27 Mar 2018, LZO 2.10
Restart pause, 5 second(s)

and freezes. The only recourse is to abort the connection process.

Clues to resolve this, anyone?

Just to check what opvn files (windows, linux) you have used?

You should NOT use windows ovpn files. You need to use Linux ovpn files.
