That has been fixed in https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-
manager-fortisslvpn/1.2.8-2
I'm uploaded a fix to bionic as a SRU
** Changed in: network-manager-fortisslvpn (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided => Low
** Changed in: network-manager-fortisslvpn (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Fix Released
** Description changed:
+ * Impact
+ The plug fails to do anything because it can't write on disk
+
+ * Test case
+ set up a VPN interface using fortissl, it should not error out
+
+ * Regression potential
+ there is no code change, the packaging just create the /var directory needed
by the code, that shouldn't have any impact since that directory didn't exist
before
+
+ -----------------------------------

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.
