From: Lev Stipakov <[email protected]>
There are two problems with the current implementation:
- due to the code bug, we never display actual error message
corresponding to the Windows error code. We use
FORMAT_MESSAGE_ALLOCATE_BUFFER, in which case we must pass
a pointer to the LPTSTR, not the LPTSTR itself.
- The error is not displayed in the "General" tab, which is very confusing.
One needs to go to the "Details" tab to see what is wrong.
This commit solves both problems. We now display a proper error
message in addition to the text provided by the service ("what went wrong").
While on it, remove trailing symbols ín a safer way.
To display the message in "General" tab, we create a registered message file
(openvpnservmsg.dll), which contains message template. Note that this requires
changes to the installer - we need to install the new DLL and
add a registry entry.
