I’m trying to run Pritunl Link on Amazon Linux 2023, but it fails to start properly. The same configuration works perfectly on Debian 12, so the issue seems to be specific to Amazon Linux.
Here is the error i saw:
[2025-03-15 13:34:44][INFO] ▶ cmd.start: Starting link ◆ version="1.0.2899.21"
[2025-03-15 13:34:50][INFO] ▶ state: Deploying state ◆ default_interface="ens5" ◆ local_address="10.15.250.25" ◆ public_address="XX.XX.XXX.XXX" ◆ address6="" ◆ states_len=1
Stopping strongSwan IPsec...

Starting strongSwan 5.9.14 IPsec [starter]...
[2025-03-15 13:35:55][WARN] ▶ sync: Disconnected timeout restarting
Are there any additional packages or services that I need to install on Amazon Linux 2023 for pritunl-link
and strongSwan
to work correctly?
On Debian 12, everything runs fine with the same link configuration.
I use latest aws ami minimal for Amazon Linux 2023.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
