[Bug 824255] Re: network-manager-openconnect can’t prompt for passwords

[marcb_ro]

I don't know if I should file this as a separate bug, but I'm having the
same issues with network-manager-openvpn (I'm running Ubuntu 11.10
amd64).

I'm trying to auto-connect to my VPN from
/etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/01ifupdown, but I get:

Nov 16 14:52:01 marc-U52F NetworkManager[7344]: <info> Starting VPN service 'openvpn'...
Nov 16 14:52:01 marc-U52F NetworkManager[7344]: <info> VPN service 'openvpn' started (org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.openvpn), PID 8760

Nov 16 14:52:06 marc-U52F NetworkManager[7344]: <info> VPN service 'openvpn' disappeared

My package versions are:

network-manager:  Installed: 0.9.1.90-0ubuntu5
network-manager-gnome:  Installed: 0.9.1.90-0ubuntu6
network-manager-openvpn:  Installed: 0.9.0-0ubuntu1

Bug description:
  Activating an openconnect VPN fails silently.  This goes to syslog:

  Aug 10 21:01:24 fixed-disk NetworkManager[27695]: <info> Starting VPN service 'openconnect'...
  Aug 10 21:01:24 fixed-disk NetworkManager[27695]: <info> VPN service 'openconnect' started (org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.openconnect), PID 27842
  Aug 10 21:01:24 fixed-disk NetworkManager[27695]: <info> VPN service 'openconnect' appeared; activating connections
  Aug 10 21:01:24 fixed-disk NetworkManager[27695]: <info> VPN plugin state changed: 1
  Aug 10 21:01:24 fixed-disk NetworkManager[27695]: <error> [1313024484.634493] [nm-vpn-connection.c:882] get_secrets_cb(): Failed to request VPN secrets #2: (6) No agents were available for this request.

  I’m sure part of the problem is that network-manager-openconnect-gnome
  is missing /usr/lib/network-manager-openconnect/nm-openconnect-auth-
  dialog (which is built and installed but not packaged), but installing
  it by hand didn’t seem to help.
