Ubuntu 15.04

I have two clients configured in /etc/openvpn

/etc/openvpn/client1.conf
/etc/openvpn/client2.conf

AUTOSTART="all"
in file:
/etc/default/openvpn

service openvpn start
or
/etc/init.d/openvpn start

fails with:

May  1 11:42:17 systemd[1]: Stopped OpenVPN service.

In previous versions of ubuntu (LTS) this was working.

something got broken with  /lib/lsb/init-functions
