Well, the bug changed faces (so to speak) in Karmic: after step 5 of the bug description, you can now see the connection, but clicking on it yields no visual feedback on the network manager system tray icon. I tried it a few times, and eventually got a popup notification saying that VPN connection null failed (with missing vpn secrets) . The workaround is still the same: rebooting - or I suppose restarting the networking services would work. After rebooting, I could connect properly to the VPN. ** Changed in: network-manager-pptp (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Confirmed -- [Hardy] network-manager-pptp requires system restart but will not tell you https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/200304 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 200304] Re: [Hardy] network-manager-pptp requires system restart but will not tell you
Restarting NM hadn't helped (I tried that a couple of times - including making superficial changes to the VPN properties and saving them). I didn't have to restart the system - just log out the other user that was logged in. Subsequently I have restarted the system and the VPN connection is still correctly visible on the VPN Connections menu. So at the moment it only looks like it was invisible whilst someone else was logged in. I'll attempt to reproduce the situation. -- [Hardy] network-manager-pptp requires system restart but will not tell you https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/200304 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I confirm the bug on Hardy i686. However, it affects only the first VPN connection you configure. Additional connections get displayed without the need to restart services or to reboot the system. The solution posted above with restarting dbus and nm-applet worked for me. -- [Hardy] network-manager-pptp requires system restart but will not tell you https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/200304 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Bump. Just confirmed this on Hardy AMD64.

[Bug 200304] Re: [Hardy] network-manager-pptp requires system restart but will not tell you
Another way around at least to get your configuration showed, is to: After configuring the VPN log out, press Ctrl+Alt+backspace (restarts the X-server etc.) And log back in. But I still think it would be preferred with a real solution, because this is things like these details, that stops people like my boss to change to linux.

[Bug 200304] Re: [Hardy] network-manager-pptp requires system restart but will not tell you
I found this bug as well when I first tried to add a VPN, but I (or a friend of mine really) found a way around it without having to do a full restart. I just went to the terminal and typed sudo /etc/init.d/dbus restart and then restarted the network manager with nm-applet the only problem is that the network manager only stays open while the terminal that you started it with is running, but i suppose this isn't much of a problem if you only need a stop gap measure until your next restart.

I have the same problem. It should either be able to restart the networking services, or it should at least advise that they need to be restarted. ** Changed in: network-manager-pptp (Ubuntu) Status: New = Confirmed -- [Hardy] network-manager-pptp requires system restart but will not tell you https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/200304 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 200304] Re: [Hardy] network-manager-pptp requires system restart but will not tell you
I believe that the setup of network-manager-pptp has always required a restart of the networking services as described here: http://pptpclient.sourceforge.net/howto-ubuntu.phtml That said, I haven't yet been able to get my own vpn connection working so far and my syslog is getting flooded with console kit errors (may be do to a restart of dbus?). It does seem like it would be helpful if the installation for this package automated the restart of the services, or at least indicated that a restart was required (if necessary??) -- [Hardy] network-manager-pptp requires system restart but will not tell you https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/200304 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
