[Bug 1422570] Re: Network indicator incorrectly claims no network available, VPN no longer working
Ah, thanks, I didn't know which project was the right one.
Unfortunately, I have since re-installed Vivid on that machine so I can
no longer reproduce.

Title:
Network indicator incorrectly claims no network available, VPN no
longer working
Status in network-manager-applet package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
I'm not sure whether this is the right project...
I did an apt-get upgrade on my vivid machine last week. Since then, my
previously working VPN setup no longer works (both new and old VPN).
Symptoms:
- After rebooting and logging in and clicking on the up-down arrow
icon, I see "No network devices available". That is definitely wrong,
seeing that, as a matter of fact, I'm on my ethernet, and it's working
fine. (I'm typing this on the affected machine.)
- Since the reboot, my previously working VPN config is toast. I had
both the old and the two new VPNs configured and working fine. Now,
when I click on "VPN Connections", none of the previously configured
networks are there. It's as if I had never configured anything.
I figured I'll try re-adding the missing VPN config, but no joy. After
re-adding a connection from my saved .conf file and clicking save, I
get an error dialog:
"Connection not visible or not available: Method "GetAll" with
signature "s" on interface "org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties" doesn't
existConnection not visible or not available: Method "GetAll" with
signature "s" on interface "org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties" doesn't
exist"
I have not hacked around with anything on this machine. No PPAs or the
like...
I'd appreciate help with this. Right now, I can't access anything
company-internal from that machine.
