‘nmcli networking connectivity check’ displays ‘limited’

Since a recent Manjaro update, Gnome maps no longer connects to the network. It returns an offline error.
The command ‘nmcli networking connectivity check’ displays ‘limited’.
I am using a wired connection with a bridge configured via netctl.
Despite all my research on the internet, I have not found a solution to this problem. Gnome maps worked perfectly until recently.

When network manager says your connection is limited - it is likely because you have changed the connectivity check entry in the configuration.

Default configuration is

/usr/lib/NetworkManager/conf.d/20-connectivity.conf

System configuration

/etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/20-connectivity.conf

If you have not changed it - then ping.manjaro.org is not responding - etiher due to network issues or geo blocking.

No i don’t !
My /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/20-connectivity.conf and my /usr/lib/NetworkManager/conf.d/20-connectivity.conf are the same like this :[connectivity] uri=http://ping.manjaro.org/check_network_status.txt
And when i try to go to this page with Firefox, the page said ‘NetworkManager is online’

Hi and welcome to the forum, :wave:

You mention that the maps application reports that it is offline. Do other applications behave normally?

Some searching leads me to a NM issue that is not solved and on first hand looks kinda similair to the network manager issue you describe, I could be way off tho, I presume you use a bridge to do some routing shenanigans that NM might not understand.

More info is needed:
One way to get more info on the specific problem of maps would be to start it from the command line, maybe an error is printed that can be followed up.

Possible workaround:
The maps application can be started with gnome-maps --force-online
This might be a temporary solution and might not even work, please check and report back.

I use a bridge because i have some Qemu/KVM virtual machines.
Starting Gnome-maps from the command line :

Individuals will not be linked properly and creating new links between Personas will not work.
The configured primary PersonaStore's backend may not be installed. If you are unsure, check with your distribution.

Starting Gnome-maps from the command line : gnome-maps --force-online is working

(org.gnome.Maps:3927): folks-WARNING **: 17:42:36.165: backend-store.vala:435: Error preparing Backend 'eds': Erreur lors de l’appel de StartServiceByName pour org.gnome.evolution.dataserver.Sources5 : Unit evolution-source-registry.service is masked

So i don’t understand why Gnome-maps need Evolution dataserver as i don’t use it.

So i don’t understand why Gnome-maps need Evolution dataserver as i don’t use it.

That’s a symptom of the problem, not the problem itself. Hence why I changed your topic title.

Ok, fine.

I used this page to disable various unwanted Gnome components like Tracker, Evolution and Gnome Online Accounts via systemctl --user mask command.

After downgrading Network Manager to 1.34.0, Gnome maps is working as expected and nmcli networking connectivity check display full ! (YES)

What i have done : sudo pacman -U https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/l/libnm/libnm-1.34.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/n/networkmanager/networkmanager-1.34.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
and sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager
