Have the same issue. When manually create directory that doesn't exist (~/.config/Outline/connection_store) and then run outline again I have got following error:

When I connect to remote VPN Server, I have got following:

Outline client works for 5-10 minutes, then it stops connecting.
I have Kali linux (last kernel)
This problem exists in the following versions and I tested it.
Ubuntu 20.04 Ubuntu 21.10 Ubuntu 22.04 PopOS 22.04
Please fix this bug.
I've been using Outline for few years now, but last month Ubuntu app (1.7.0) suddenly stopped working, while ios and android apps work fine. For Ubuntu I swiped to https://github.com/nojsja/shadowsocks-electron with existing Outline Server.
Waiting Jigsaw Team to fix original Outline Client for Ubuntu.
I noticed that with original client - route table s broken, maybe some update in systemd or smth else brokes old version.
I had the same bug. The problem appeared after a kernel update. It happens because there is no kernel module TUN. This can be checked with the following command:
$ sudo dmesg | grep TUN
[ 26.091113] tun: Universal TUN/TAP device driver, 1.6
Outline needs to create a TUN interface to work properly.
$ route -n

If you don't get this output, simply reboot and check again.
If it is still missing, add a TUN kernel module and reboot.
sudo modprobe tun
lsmod | grep tun
reboot
I hope it helps.

Still having the same issue
Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS Release: 18.04 Codename: bionic
As a workaround you can recompile the client locally. I've just tried it and it's working just fine on Ubuntu 22.04
- Clone the repo:
git clone [email protected]:Jigsaw-Code/outline-client.git cd outline-client - Install node 16 (for example using brew)
brew install node@16 - Install all dependencies
npm install - Build the app
npm run action electron/build linux - Now you have properly working
Outline-Client.AppImageand you can run it./build/dist/Outline-Client.AppImage

I'm using the latest outline appimage on Debian 11 and 12
-
I start the app
-
Then I click on connect
-
The app asks for my root password
-
I enter the password and then the app says "Initializing Outline..Outline has been successfully initialized. please try again to conenct to the server" and that's it.. connecting again doesn't seem to be working
The server is running on Debian 11. Windows and android apps work fine.
PS It looks you need to reboot your PC to make the app working.. The devs should have specified it in the app description tbh..
I try to run outline-client on Linux Mint 21.1 and I have same problem (I can not connect to actuel key). I tried to do it:
As a workaround you can recompile the client locally. I've just tried it and it's working just fine on Ubuntu 22.04
- Clone the repo:
git clone [email protected]:Jigsaw-Code/outline-client.git cd outline-client
In this step, I was only able to do using this: git clone https://github.com/Jigsaw-Code/outline-client.git cd outline-client
2. Install node 16 (for example using brew)brew install node@16
Here I did: sudo apt-get install nodejs
- Install all dependencies
npm install
Here I did: sudo npm install -g [email protected] without it, there is an error: Unsupported engine
- Build the app
npm run action electron/build linux
Here I have the error:
[email protected] action node ./src/build/run_action.mjs "electron/build" "linux" file:///home/dima/outline-client/src/build/run_action.mjs:96 if (error?.message) { ^ SyntaxError: Unexpected token '.' at Loader.moduleStrategy (internal/modules/esm/translators.js:133:18) at async link (internal/modules/esm/module_job.js:42:21)
Where is my mistake?
I did it! I had to install the old version of node-v16.13.0-linux-x64 After that, everything gathered and now works! Thanks https://github.com/Friend-LGA for the idea!
This is an issue about a very old version of the client, that was still using shadowsocks-libev. The client no longer uses it. If there's a new issue, please file a new one.
