However I have always kept this service disabled and started it only when needed, so I have totally discarded it as the cause of the problem. This tool does the same thing as FortiClient and, of course, it should have been the first suspect in my search. I have also the OpenVPN installed on the same work PC.

Well, after another day of frustrating tries and retries I think I have found the culprit.

I have extracted the log from the client and effectively, on the PC logs, I can see a troublesome line that tells me about a problem in finding the local_gwy interface while the same line is not present on the laptop's logs. So I have concluded that the problem is in the connection established on my main work PC. I have also a laptop to test my application, and, of course, it has no problem at all and works as expected. The user interface shows my VPN as connected and some minimal bytes are transfered and received from the endpoint.

When I start the VPN from the FortiClient it connects to my endpoint apparently without any problem, but my application, that relies on contacting some remote servers through the VPN, is unable to connect to any of these remote servers. It all started two days ago and I am still unable to find a possible cause of this problem.
