From your logs above:

"Sep  2 16:59:40 clarisse ovpn-update-systemd-resolved[12327]: Options
error: --up script fails with
'/etc/openvpn/scripts/update-systemd-resolved': No such file or
directory (errno=2)
Sep  2 16:59:40 clarisse ovpn-update-systemd-resolved[12327]: Options
error: Please correct this error."


Those messages are error messages, if I were you I would put the missing
file 'scripts/update-systemd-resolved' in the directory
'/etc/openvpn/scripts' or look in your openvpn config file for the '--up
script' directive.
