I was able to connect to a vpn server (PPTP) with no difficulties. But
now, I get always the following message:

"VPN connection failed because service stopped".

From a MS Windows machine, I can connect to the referred vpn server.

Could someone please help me?

The following log may help you:

The problem was related to the firewall, although I had not changed
anything in the firewall.

The following (done as root) fixed the problem:

firewall-cmd --direct --add-rule ipv4 filter INPUT 0 -p gre -j ACCEPT
firewall-cmd --direct --add-rule ipv6 filter INPUT 0 -p gre -j ACCEPT
firewall-cmd --reload

How to make permanent these changes on the firewall?

firewall-cmd --runtime-to-permanent
