Can you try that with a more recent raspbian/raspberrypi os release? Stretch is quite old by now, and might be the reason why.
TarekHC commented
I upgraded the OS to buster (not from scratch, followed the slow upgrade procedure) and still having the same issue: nothing is created within /opt.
Any ideas? Should I do a clean install?
TarekHC commented
EDIT: my model is Raspberry Pi 3 Model B Rev 1.2

If you can i'd romend a clean install
TarekHC commented
Hi all,
I can confirm after a clean install the /opt/pivpn folder in indeed created.
If anyone has the same issue, just do a clean install!
