Sure:

the last I exported from pfSense looks like this, although they 
previously had different options.
Just discovered this: if I put the p12 and key file away from the 
directory, I am able to import the config file!
Then I put them back and the VPN connections work.
But if those files are inside the directory while importing then the 
error message is right around the corner.
Hope this can help,
