VPN connects but no IP address for remote network

I have enabled VPN on the firewall and created the configuration files.  At remote site i have downloaded the OpenVPN client and installed the software.  The config files are copied to the appropriate folder.

The VPN Client opens and connects successfully and indicates that the connection is good.

When I check the IP config information i see that the VPN adapter has a 169.x.x.x address, meaning that it cannot get an address through DHCP.  In the connection log i see the following entries of interest:

Wed Jun 15 22:28:56 2016   server_network = 0.0.0.0
Wed Jun 15 22:28:56 2016   server_netmask = 0.0.0.0

Wed Jun 15 22:28:56 2016   ifconfig_pool_netmask = 0.0.0.0

and at the end of the log file:

Any ideas of why i cannot get an IP address on the remote network?  I have also tried assigning a static ip to the Netgear VPM adapter in the remote network with no success.

Sorry such a log explanation
