Public bug reported: In 12.04, any time I try to connect to a VPN connection, I get the following message in /var/log/syslog:
May 3 12:59:06 aeolus NetworkManager[25368]: <warn> connection /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Settings/64 failed to activate: (5) Base connection for VPN connection not active. I also get a similar message as a notification, and then nothing happens. The same VPN configuration worked in 11.10 just fine. And yes, I am connected to the internet (via wireless), or else I wouldn't be able to submit this bug report. ** Affects: network-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/994186 Title: VPN connections broken in 12.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/994186/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
