i've just build 5.10.0 (from github sources) and it works OK all VPN connections visible and i can connect and disconnect using UI. 5.10.5 - works 5.11.0 - broken 5.10.5 - works 5.10.95 - broken Are you connected to the internet? We changed it to show VPN connections only when you are connected to the internet. It's this change: https://cgit.kde.org/plasma-nm.git/commit/?h=Plasma/5.11&id=3412d7b3dd58c77ba3514a9034d979a12277398b Yes. 95% its it. I'm connected to the internet ...Thru corporate proxy. Maybe this is the cause. I use cntlm to pass thru proxy and have HTTP_PROXY, HTTPS_PROXY, FTP_PROXY, FTPS_PROXY (+ lowercase variants) env variables pointing to CNTLM (i.e. http://127.0.0.1:3128). KDE desktop tools, chrome, intellij idea, almost all software correctly detects internet connection. Im not sure how nm checks for internet connections, but proxy may simply block connections to some site (if its tries to ping some site). In this sense not the best change for me (and many other users who uses applet and vpn). What was a reason about this change? And why this behavior not consistent with nmcli Git commit 9e345849b94d1a8018f3d9634e9e2c87ad13e6be by Jan Grulich. Committed on 03/01/2018 at 07:31. Pushed by grulich into branch 'master'. Show VPN connections even with a limited connection User might be behind proxy, resulting that NM detects we have limited connection M +3 -1 libs/models/networkmodelitem.cpp https://commits.kde.org/plasma-nm/9e345849b94d1a8018f3d9634e9e2c87ad13e6be Bulk transfer as requested in T17796 |
Created attachment 109543 [details] only ethernet here plasma-nm doesn't show configured (available) VPN connections. several versions earlier all works fine, now they just dissapear from ui. However `nmcli` sees all openvpn connections: $ nmcli c NAME UUID TYPE DEVICE enp3s0 ff51964b-bb1f-46d6-acac-936f0c173040 ethernet enp3s0 **123 9048265d-bea1-4979-8449-1131b129e8b7 vpn -- ** **support 94e3ea44-ec0f-438c-bd69-f514954c4511 vpn -- **
