Server seemingly ignoring connections

I have been trying to set up openvpn through clearos's tools but every attempted connection times out:

syslog:


Connectivity is fine with everything else (SSH, HTTPS) and I checked, both UDP and TCP were automatically added to the incoming firewall. I tried connecting with the client both with the firewall on and allow rules and with the firewall (temporarily, obviously) down. Still nothing. So my next thought was dropped packets

tcpdump -ni enp3s0 udp and port 1194


Nothing there. Considering this is a stock clearos openvpn setup and the client is using the imported .ovpn I am at a complete loss.
