Hi Sebastien, I'm using an the OpenVPN plugin. I'm imported an .ovpn config file into NetworkManager and filled my credentials.
I found some interesting log messages in journalctl: nov. 05 21:00:58 xxxx gnome-shell[2760]: Invalid connection type: vpn nov. 05 21:00:58 xxxx gnome-shell[2760]: Invalid connection type: vpn nov. 05 21:00:58 xxxx NetworkManager[1485]: <error> [1572984058.4210] vpn-connection[0x55e68ff9c730,50d6326e-03bc-49a9-9f04-40c353cf55b3,"protonvpn.udp.com",0]: Failed to request VPN secrets #3: No agents were available for this request. nov. 05 21:00:58 xxxx NetworkManager[1485]: <info> [1572984058.4212] device (wlo1): state change: secondaries -> failed (reason 'secondary-connection-failed', sys-iface-state: 'managed') The error seems to be the "agent" --> Failed to request VPN secrets #3: No agents were available for this request. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1851322 Title: VPN auto-connect is not working Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Hi, This is a duplicate of bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/network-manager/+bug/1718931 It is marked as fixed, but the feature is still broken for me.
