You my be running an older version of openvpn (2.1 rc8 or lower?) that doesn't accept the --script-security argument. Is that the case? Basically, NetworkManager-openvpn is the openvpn plugin to allow NM to connect to OpenVPN VPN servers. When you ask NM to activate an OpenVPN connection, NM launches nm-openvpn-service which handles the actual connection task. If --script-security isn't the problem, then we can try to debug this further by just running '/usr/libexec/nm-openvpn-service' as root, then connecting from the NM applet menu. That will spit out more debug info, which we can look at to find out what the problem is.
