I use ProtonVPN too. All I do is download whatever country I want to use config file and load it via Network Connections.
Your login credentials are on the main page of ProtonVPN...

also FAILS for me on xubuntu so probably not a linuxliteos issue

options i used were
[tt]Please choose your ProtonVPN Plan
1) Free
2) Basic
3) Plus
4) Visionary

Your plan: 1

Choose the default OpenVPN protocol.
OpenVPN can act on two different protocols: UDP and TCP.
UDP is preferred for speed but might be blocked in some networks.
TCP is not as fast but a lot harder to block.
Input your preferred protocol. (Default: UDP)

1) UDP
2) TCP

Your choice: 2

I use protonvpn too and had this problem as well when started using it till I realized that was using the wrong credentials, which are not your protonvpn's but the ones in the page jerry linked in a previous post. First, login to your protonvpn account and in the dashboard click on Account >> Openvpn/ikv2 and finally copy the openvpn/ikv2 username and openvpn/ikv2 password by clicking in copy, then use those credentials in the protonvpn cli-client, which is the one youre using right?
