https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/dsommers/openvpn3/ will list the directories that are present. It (currently!) lacks fedora-39-x86_64. Upstream for the openvpn3 copr is:
Community OpenVPN and has a table showing availability of openvpn3 packages for various distros has footnotes:

Fedora Rawhide is a moving target and there will be periods where there will not be updates available until we sort out the required changes to the build environment.

Fedora 38 and newer and Ubuntu 23.04 and newer are still not available in stable release. A development release is being worked on.

There are other VPN packages in Fedora 39.

Is there some way to fix this or should I wait for an update or what + I updated to Fedora 39 before releasing it

You could just wait until then, or use another vpn as @gnwiii pointed out, that are packaged in Fedora’s repos.

edit : Repo files are stored in /etc/yum.repos.d/, coprs start with “_copr”. Just delete correct file and it work for me
