Public bug reported: I'm using Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS with network-manager-fortisslvpn 1.2.8-1build1 installed.
To do this I simply ran "sudo apt install network-manager-fortisslvpn- gnome". After setting up a VPN interface using this plugin, attempting to connect fails immediately and using journalctl I can see this error message: Sep 11 14:05:06 homebase NetworkManager[900]: <warn> [1536689106.6238] vpn-connection[<p>,<uid>,"VPN1",0]: VPN connection: failed to connect: 'Failed to create file “/var/lib/NetworkManager- fortisslvpn/<uuid>.config.<ext>”: No such file or directory' After running "sudo mkdir /var/lib/NetworkManager-fortisslvpn" by hand, then I was able to get past this error. ** Affects: network-manager-fortisslvpn (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1791996 Title: Connection failed: Failed to create file due to missing directory To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-fortisslvpn/+bug/1791996/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
