Public bug reported:
I was using Ubuntu 22.04 with VPN with no issues. Now I have a fresh
install of Ubuntu 24.04.
When I'm trying to add a new VPN connection (OpenVPN with TLS
certificates authentication), the "Add" button is "greyed out". There is
absolutely no feedback on the UI which setting is wrong. (Actually there
is one feedback, if gateway field is not filled, it turns red.) After
endless experimenting, I'm still not able to figure out which setting is
wrong. This is really not user-friendly.
What I was able to do as a workaround, is to manually create the yaml
file in /etc/netplan folder, and now it's perfectly working. With the
UI, I can't edit this connection as the "Apply" button is not clickable.
