[Bug 810414] Re: VPN service fails to start

 

This is likely due to a local change on the system:

Jul 14 13:38:58 svart NetworkManager[812]: <warn> VPN connection
'BTGuard VPN' failed to connect: 'property 'progname=nm-openvpn-auth-
dialog; RGBA=on' invalid or not supported'

Please make sure your install is clean. You can reinstall network-manager-openvpn like so:
sudo apt-get install --reinstall network-manager-openvpn

You can also verify that /etc/NetworkManager/VPN/nm-openvpn-service.name
doesn't include changes you've made locally.

** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Incomplete

Title:
  VPN service fails to start

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I am completely unable to connect to VPN. When attempting to connect
  n-m reports that the VPN service failed to start.

  Running the following in Terminal:
  service openvpn start

  Yields following output:
  Starting virtual private network daemon(s)...

  Attempting to connect to VPN after this fails with the same error as
  above.

  I would like to see this fixed also I would like to know if this works
  in Maverick.
