Public bug reported: I've just upgraded (fresh install) to Ubuntu 12.04 and add the network- manager-openvpn packages. Now when I select "VPN Connections" -> "Configure VPN" from the network icon in the panel I get the opportunity to "Add" a VPN with a connection type of OpenVPN.
However in the dialog for creating a new VPN, the "Save..." button is permanently grey and I can't ever click it. I've tried filling in everything, choosing different Authentication values, etc. but nothing helps: the "Save ..." button is never selectable. Unlike bug # 204696 the Add button does work and unlike bug # 980025 I do have a "Save .." button... it's just not clickable. Maybe it's a privileges problem? But I don't know how to invoke the dialog with the proper privileges? Help... without this I can't access work anymore... $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Release: 12.04 $ apt-cache policy network-manager-openvpn network-manager-openvpn: Installed: 0.9.4.0-0ubuntu1 Candidate: 0.9.4.0-0ubuntu1 Version table: *** 0.9.4.0-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/universe amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status $ apt-cache policy network-manager-openvpn-gnome network-manager-openvpn-gnome: Installed: 0.9.4.0-0ubuntu1 Candidate: 0.9.4.0-0ubuntu1 Version table: *** 0.9.4.0-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/universe amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status $ apt-cache policy openvpn openvpn: Installed: 2.2.1-8ubuntu1 Candidate: 2.2.1-8ubuntu1 Version table: *** 2.2.1-8ubuntu1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ** Affects: network-manager-openvpn (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/990765 Title: "Save" button always greyed out when creating openvpn connection To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-openvpn/+bug/990765/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
