Hello,
I had a problem importing configuration files to create a VPN connection.
Nothing would happen after clicking on "Import from file..".
After countless attempts (and only after turning my 2nd monitor on) I realized
that the "Select file to import" window opens on the 2nd monitor and can't be
moved to the main monitor.
After selecting the file to import and clicking "Open" on the 2nd monitor, the
rest of the procedure to add a VPN worked fine and I was able to set a VPN
connection.
I hope this helps.
PS: The same problem occurs with other applications.
Ex. Trying to open a document in LibreOffice, the window to select the file
opens on the 2nd
monitor.

Title:
OpenVPN not Working in 17.04 via "Import a saved VPN configuration"
Status in NetworkManager:
New
Status in network-manager-openvpn package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I can definitely confirm that Network Manager's OpenVPN is not working
yet in Ubuntu 17.04.
I set up my configuration via import:
http://neartalk.com/ss/2017-03-29_001_633x332.png
On all earlier versions of Ubuntu, after importing the configuration,
I'm able to connect to the VPN. However, in 17.04, connection attempts
always give this error immediately:
"The VPN Connection disconnected because the VPN Service has stopped"
Clearly the VPN Service has NOT stopped. I've confirmed that this
error is false by taking the exact same import-file and I imported it
into an Ubuntu 16.04 computer and then the VPN connected without
issue. Also, with this same import-file I've had no issues in Ubuntu
16.10.
So I've thoroughly confirmed that there is no issue with the VPN
service. The issue is with the client in Ubuntu 17.04.
I cannot upgrade to 17.04 until this is fixed.
