install application breaks access to ynh admin page

[snapek]

I've installed openvpn_ynh on two different hosts and two different VM's now, both existing and fresh installs of YNH, with the same result.

Once openvpn_ynh is done installing, I'm no longer able to access the yunohost admin page. Doing so times out for a while, then a red bar comes up at the top that says "An instance is already running" and the main page still says "Loading...".

I'm not able to go to Applications or Users sub-pages directly either.

If I try to remove the app from command-line via 'yunohost app remove openvpn' it just sits there and stalls, no progress or results.

Same problem after reboot. (Debian Jessie, have test with stable repo and backport repo)
Remove openvpn via "apt-get remove opevpn" don't solve the problem.

Edit : same problem on Yunohost raspberry pi ISO.

Had the same issue, although I could remove it via the cli. Still left Yunohost in a broken state, I regenerated the ssowat config and rebooted, which seems to have fixed everything.

Installing this causes serious breakage, @zamentur can you take a look?

Workaround : sudo rm /var/run/moulinette_yunohost.lock to unstuck the admin interface.

This seems to be fixed with the latest commit of openvpn_ynh though (52e5f2e).

Actually, I'm having this very issue after a fresh install. It's pretty annoying so I'm putting the command suggested by @kemenaran in a cron job.
