[Bug 1297849] Re: [SRU] Virtual private network connection fails after distribution upgrade due to outdated Network Manager configuration files

From April 2015 until around May 27th 2015, I did not experience this bug in Ubuntu 15.04. Then all of a sudden it returned. I couldn't find this bug from before (see comment #86 above). So I submitted this bug for vivid:

[Bug 1297849] Re: [SRU] Virtual private network connection fails after distribution upgrade due to outdated Network Manager configuration files

@Benjamin Xiao : No, I didn't think to try that. It would have probably worked before the updates (like it did for the first 2 months of 15.04). Right now I'm typing to you from a freshly installed 14.04 where vpnc is working just fine. I've never gotten this to work in 14.10, and (like you know)

I just reinstalled Ubuntu 15.04 (hand selecting only a hand full of hidden configuration files to place into my home directory so that I would not have to reconfigure these certain applications). I can't believe it. This bug is still there. Back to Ubuntu 14.04 I go. This is the second upgrade

I keep running into this on multiple installations, with openconnect. Removing only ~/.gconf/apps/nm-applet/%gconf.xml always fixes it for me, yet that file is basically blank with just a change time. And it gets recreated yet continues to work (for quite some time) but occasionally I have to

Had the same problem on 15.04. I manually add the route but in 15.04 NM seems to be changed and no longer works. What I did instead is to add the manual route normally but changed the gateway (routes - gateway) to 0.0.0.0 , that worked for me. I hope it can help you too. Additionally, you can try

[Bug 1297849] Re: [SRU] Virtual private network connection fails after distribution upgrade due to outdated Network Manager configuration files

I think this no longer applies upstream, because https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=707953 and the fix for it completely removed src/shell-watcher.c, where the patch was necessary. Because of that, I would recommend to apply the patch to the current version as it is in Ubuntu. I can also

[Bug 1297849] Re: [SRU] Virtual private network connection fails after distribution upgrade due to outdated Network Manager configuration files

I've updated the description, but I'm not convinced it has anything to do with upgrading a system; given how the patch included here has been noticed to work. However, since it's not upstream, could someone having the issue also report the bug on the upstream bug tracker (at GNOME)? You can

[Bug 1297849] Re: [SRU] Virtual private network connection fails after distribution upgrade due to outdated Network Manager configuration files

Wouldn't this also apply to Vivid? I look at find that the upstream code should be about the same: https://git.gnome.org/browse/network-manager-applet/tree/src/shell-watcher.c?h=nma-0-9-10#n154 To ship a fix like this as SRU, it would first need to land in the current development release

I applied the patch from source, and it's working now (thanks Pavel). My only remark is that I'm running psensor as a startup application, and the nm-applet won't show the VPN connections in the menu until the psensor window has come up. Weird. -- You received this bug notification because you
