[Bug 997927] Re: NM reports "VPN service 'openvpn' disappeared"

 

This is really a problematic Bug!
I could isolate the Problem a little more !

The Error Line  VPN service 'openvpn' disappeared
Can be found in:
network-manager-0.9.10.0/src/vpn-manager/nm-vpn-service.c

The Problematic Code Part where it breaks the OpenVPN Service
if (old_owner_good && !new_owner_good) {
		/* service went away */
		priv->service_running = FALSE;
		nm_log_info (LOGD_VPN, "VPN service '%s' disappeared", priv->name);
		nm_vpn_service_stop_connections (service, FALSE, NM_VPN_CONNECTION_STATE_REASON_SERVICE_STOPPED);
	}

can be found in the function _name_owner_changed

Maybe somebody know how to fix this now ?

static void
_name_owner_changed (NMDBusManager *mgr,
                     const char *name,
                     const char *old,
                     const char *new,
                     gpointer user_data)
{
	NMVPNService *service = NM_VPN_SERVICE (user_data);
	NMVPNServicePrivate *priv = NM_VPN_SERVICE_GET_PRIVATE (service);
	gboolean old_owner_good, new_owner_good, success;

	if (strcmp (name, priv->dbus_service))
		return;

	/* Service changed, no need to wait for the timeout any longer */
	if (priv->start_timeout) {
		g_source_remove (priv->start_timeout);
		priv->start_timeout = 0;
	}

	old_owner_good = (old && old[0]);
	new_owner_good = (new && new[0]);

	if (!old_owner_good && new_owner_good) {
		/* service appeared */
		priv->service_running = TRUE;
		nm_log_info (LOGD_VPN, "VPN service '%s' appeared; activating connections", priv->name);
		/* Expect success because the VPN service has already appeared */
		success = start_active_vpn (service, NULL);
		g_warn_if_fail (success);
	} else if (old_owner_good && !new_owner_good) {
		/* service went away */
		priv->service_running = FALSE;
		nm_log_info (LOGD_VPN, "VPN service '%s' disappeared", priv->name);
		nm_vpn_service_stop_connections (service, FALSE, NM_VPN_CONNECTION_STATE_REASON_SERVICE_STOPPED);
	}
}


P.S. I had nm-applet Crashing allways when this Log Lines are showed

There is something strange with usermanagement it looks like in ubuntu
when using OpenVPN !!!
