Description Zhang Hongjiu 2012-01-05 17:20:19 UTC
Version:           0.9 (using KDE 4.7.4) 
OS:                Linux

If the path of CA certificate, certificate and private key files for OpenVPN X.509 authentication contains CJK characters, the filename cannot be correctly saved in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/xxx files.

additional TLS-authentication file is not affected.

I had /etc/locale.gen linked to /usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED and ran locale-gen, so I should get all the locale information installed. LANG=zh_TW.UTF-8.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
0. kde-base/kdebase-startkde-4.7.4
kde-misc/networkmanagement-0.8.98 (Application report: 0.9.0_rc3)
net-misc/networkmanager-0.9.2.0
net-misc/networkmanager-openvpn-0.9.2.0
net-misc/modemmanager-0.5
media-fonts/wqy-zenhei-0.9.45
LANG=zh_TW.UTF-8

1. Save CA certificate, certificate and private key files in a folder.
2. Rename the folder to a name with non-latin characters in it.
3. Set a new OpenVPN connection through NetworkManager tray icon, and save.
4. Close the configuration window and re-configure the connection.
*** 1 ***
5. Try to enable this connection.
*** 2 ***
6. sudo(kdesu/gksu/pkexec) cat /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/(Name)
*** 3 ***
7. Check syslog
*** 4 ***

Actual Results:  
*** 1 ***
The path contains some unrecognizable characters, which should be apparently different from the ones when the paths were set. (May require a proper fonts like WenQuanYi Zen Hei)
*** 2 ***
Connection failed.
*** 3 ***
Just as *** 1 ***, there is some unrecognizable characters saved in that file.
*** 4 ***
Message said fail to load the key file xxxxxxxxx.

Expected Results:  
The characters should be saved to that file correctly, and thus the connection should be usable without manual modification of that file.

Comment 1 Lamarque V. Souza 2012-01-06 01:43:10 UTC
Can you add screenshots of the problem? It would make things easier for me to try to figure out what could be wrong. Anyway, it is NetworkManager that write manages the files in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections, it is likely the problem is in NM.

Screenshot of configuration (1)

This is the screenshot when I just finished the settings and did not save. The 7 textboxs in the tab are (from top to bottom) "Gateway", "CA certificate", "Certificate", "Private key", "Private key password", "Username", "Password".

This is the screenshot of saved configuration.

I did not find the correct saving command in nmcli. How to test the saving function of NetworkManager?

Thank you for your help.
Comment 4 Lamarque V. Souza 2012-01-06 11:36:25 UTC
nmcli does not create connections, for that you need Plasma NM, nm-applet or edit the files in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/ directly. Actually, can you do this test for me:

. edit your connection's configuration file in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections;
. edit the entries "ca", "cert", "key" to contains the correct path;
. stop NetworkManager (usually /etc/init.d/NetworkManager stop should work);
. start NetworkManager (/etc/init.d/NetworkManager start);
. open the edit dialog in Plasma NM and see if the paths are connect or not. If they are connect them there is something wrong only when saving the connection. If they are not correct then test is inconclusive.
Comment 5 Zhang Hongjiu 2012-01-06 16:45:58 UTC
Oh, I think I did that "test" for many times. :)

The current system-conneciton configurations are manually modified by myself. I just did /etc/init.d/NetworkManager stop && /etc/init.NetworkManager start. The paths in the edit dialog are correct. In fact, this is how I get the screenshot-1.
