No secrets were provided when connecting to WIFI/VPN

[gez]

Hi !
For awhile now I’ve had issues while connecting to a network with a “no secrets were provided” message and eventually I found out that restarting the networkmanager service somehow fixes this. I did this for some time and after I got fed up with restarting the service on every bootup or I’d get the same no secrets message, I managed to figure out that re-adding the wifi connections I use manually via nmcli made them work normally, meaning I no longer had to restart the service for auto-connect to work. Recently I wanted to connect to a VPN, and I have a .ovpn file which I just import via the GUI but the same “no secrets” problem persists. I also tried to add it via nmcli but got the same result there so It’s high time to fully fix whatever is broken. The problem is that I’m a newbie so I’ve no clue what logs to paste/check or what could be causing this issue. Any tips on where to start ?
Thanks !

Running sudo journalctl -xefu NetworkManager, gives this

Hello @gez and welcome

A little reasearch gave me this: 449984 – Plasma 5.24.0 NetworkManager cannot get secrets using DBus when using a proxy Yeah this bug seems to be fixed, but maybe t devs introduced a new bug. I am not KDE User at all, so cannot assist here.

However, I would say that there is a wrong communication on the dbus API. As noted in the bug report enabled “Detect proxy configuration automatically” in the settings produced that misbehavior. Probably something similar or somewhere else. Also non-encrypted secrets didn’t affect this.

Best advice would be reporting that to the devs on https://bugs.kde.org/.

Привет. Удалось решить проблему? Она актуальна также и для GNOME. Смоделировать можно даже не устанавливая OS (загрузившись с USB).

Sorry
Hi. Did you manage to solve the problem? It is also relevant for GNOME. You can simulate it even without installing the OS (by booting from USB).

In GNOME, this is preceded by a large output of the form:

It looks like the problem is in the dialog boxes

UPD: 15.12.2023
Hi. I solved the problem (on GNOME) by downgrading the network-manager-applet package (from 1.34.0-1 to 1.32.0-3).

manjaro-downgrade network-manager-applet

Зарегался, чтобы сказать спасибо. Дело сдвинулось с мертвой точки, но теперь выдаёт такое

Сталкивался?

UPD.
В итоге поставил xl2tp, завёлся через него. Безопаснее и, как выяснилось, более рабочий вариант.
