ERROR: Linux route add command failed: external program exited with error status: 2
What is the reason behind this error?
This error doesn't really mean much on its own. The exit code of 2 simply means the kernel rejected your route for some reason. It could be because you already have a route for that network, it could be because the gateway was not appropriate for the network/subnet, or many other things.
In any case bump up the verbosity you should be able to see more details about what specific route was failing.
Depending on the error you may need to fix your configuration, or just ignore the error. Sometimes the vpn server will offer routes, that your computer already has, or do not apply to your current connection.

Yes well that doesn't change my advice. Increase the 'verb'osity, and check your logs. More information should make the problem obvious.
