Hello Imran,<br>
<br>
</span>Do you mind posting the complete log from daemon start to the error?<br>
<br>
And yes, PSK is the easiest way, but if you are experienced with certificates, you can also take that approach.<br>

I assumed that was the case, but I tried using certificates as well by following this example (<a href="http://kleinerman.org/ipsec-with-strongswan/" target="_blank">http://kleinerman.org/ipsec-with-strongswan/</a>) but I get stuck at the last step, as the Android app wants a client certificate as well, which I haven't generated.<br>
