New network GUI doesn't invoke popup windows

Open elementaryBot opened this issue 8 years ago • 3 comments

I'm trying to connect to openVPN connection and getting error in syslog:

Failed to request VPN secrets #3: No agents were available for this request.

This is happening since I changed the setting to ask for password every time. No popup windows load for networking.

I also use a wifi that requires a password every time that no popup window will not appear.

As a workaround I am using:

nmcli --ask con up id < connection name >

For both VPN and wifi that requires a password every time. This works great. This increases the odds this is a popup password GUI issue.
