Openvpn under networkmanager has stopped working

I connect to Private Internet Access for my vpn after installing the private-internet-access-vpn setup from the AUR over a year ago, which has worked flawlessly up until a few weeks ago. Now when I attempt to connect to any server the icon goes into its 'thinking' mode and never connects.

I have tried looking for the openvpn logs but cannot find them; (admittedly I don't really know what I am doing) there is nothing under /var/log/syslog or /var/log/daemon in which solutions have been posted with users with seemingly similar problems.

Could anyone tell me where the connection logs are so I can attempt to work out what is wrong?

Re: Openvpn under networkmanager has stopped working

How are you connecting? Directly with OpenVPN, with NetworkManager, or with something else?

Re: Openvpn under networkmanager has stopped working

I am connecting through networkmanager. To connect to the VPN I just use the networkmanager icon and the last menu entry is 'VPN connections', then there is a list of all the Private Internet Access servers that were configured when I installed the AUR package. I could have done it manually  through openvpn direct but it just seemed a much easier solution to have someone else do all the configuration.

It has been working fine for a very long time, and I cant recall what, if anything, changed. I have checked the /etc/openvpn/[servers].conf files and they all seem okay; my logon details are still correct in /etc/private-internet-access/login.conf.

I have found

[cdrjameson@arch ~] $ journatlctl -u NetworkManager

Re: Openvpn under networkmanager has stopped working

Can you connect via OpenVPN without any errors?

Re: Openvpn under networkmanager has stopped working

I looked into my openvpn configuration and I don't have an /etc/openvpn/client/client.conf file so cant use openvpn directly at the moment. I have copied the example conf into my /etc/openvpn/client/client.conf but it remains just the example configuration for now.

I went to https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/ to try and get the correct configuration details for any of their servers and my browser (chromium) throws a privacy error and won't let me connect. All of my browsers (firefox, vivaldi and chromium) are saying private internet access' certificate is invalid which I find hard to believe, considering security/privacy is their trade.

I wonder if not being able to connect to the VPN server is anything to do with not being able to connect to their website?

Re: Openvpn under networkmanager has stopped working

PIA works fine for me: their certificate is valid. Have you done the ca-certs upgrade: https://www.archlinux.org/news/ca-certi … ervention/

Re: Openvpn under networkmanager has stopped working

I thought I had done that when it came out, either way I went ahead and followed the instructions at the link but there is no change this end. I still can't access any webpage of https://www.privateinternetaccesss/ nor does my vpn work i.e. the original problem. This doesn't happen on any other website (that I visit at least) so I am sure the issue is at my end.

Re: Openvpn under networkmanager has stopped working

My suggestion would be to get the OpenVPN configuration files manually from PIA and try OpenVPN. If that works, then there is some configuration problem with NetworkManager. The Private Internet Access wiki page has been updated recently with some alternative installation methods as well. wink

*Edit*: Ah, I just saw the part of the certificate errors. No good getting the files from PIA if you can't access the website. sad

Re: Openvpn under networkmanager has stopped working

Still not solved this problem but I am attempting to set up openvpn to use PIAs vpn direct. My /etc/openvpn/client.conf looks like:

client
dev tun
proto udp
remote uk-london.privateinternetaccess.com 501
resolv-retry infinite
nobind
persist-key
persist-tun
cipher aes-256-cbc
auth sha256
tls-client
remote-cert-tls server
auth-user-pass /etc/private-internet-access/login.conf
auth-nocache
comp-lzo
fast-io
verb 1
reneg-sec 0
crl-verify /etc/private-internet-access/crl.rsa.4096.pem
ca /etc/private-internet-access/ca.rsa.4096.crt
disable-occ

I have now un-installed the private-internet-access package from the AUR and removed the networkmanager-openvpn package. I have restarted the NetworkManager service and then started the openvpn client. Unfortunately it still doesn't connect to the VPN, or at least my ip address is still my ISP provided IP. What indications do you get that you are connected to a VPN when using openvpn directly? And the much more pressing question what have I done wrong here, i.e. why is it not working?

Incidentally I still cannot connect to www.privateinternetaccess.com from any of my devices [laptop, phone, computer] when on my home network so that leads me to think that's a router problem...but I can't think what would have caused that.

Re: Openvpn under networkmanager has stopped working

Hello, I am facing the same issue after update. Another system that I did not update and uses the same configuration can still connect to VPN using NetworkManager and OpenVPN at the same time (=> VPN server works). The password is definitely correct and works on the other machine at the same time. Yesterday, I was able to connect once when surprisingly a password dialog was suddenly brought up while attempting to connect (this never happened before or after). Here is my log (I replaced real IP address with fake one - 1.2.3.4):

Also during one try I spotted this in the log:

It seems to me like there is a problem with passing the password to OpenVPN. Do you have any idea? Maybe a missing non-mandatory dependency?

Re: Openvpn under networkmanager has stopped working

Don't necrobump. It's been a year and it really doesn't read like you are having the same issue.

Please open up a new thread for your issue, containing what you posted so far, as well as other details from your setup, especially which nm applet/client you are using and which environment you are trying to start it in.

Closing.
