Sending Identity to client "CLIENT" failed. Retrying in 60s

Hello,
I am getting the error below on the server when trying to configure a client

2021-07-30 12:25:55: Authed+capa for client 'CLIENT' (encrypted-v2, compressed-v2, token auth) - 1 
spare connections
2021-07-30 12:25:55:  Sending Identity to client "CLIENT" failed. Retrying in 60s.

There is not a whole of of useful information in the client debug log either:

The server is an internet mode ubuntu server.
The client is Windows 7. There is no local firewall enabled and no restrictions between the client and server (apart from the local router doing NAT to the internet).

I don’t really have a whole lot to go on here as the logs are pretty sparse. Anyone any ideas?

Bump… having this problem on more than one client now.

Can anyone help me with the same problem?
