Hi, I am unable to switch on “threat protection lite” on my Nord VPN - I use Manjaro with Gnome as desktop environment. When I run the command I got the following error:
“Whoops! Something went wrong. Please try again. If the problem persists, contact our customer support”.
I was told by the Nord VPN support team to ask the Manjaro community.
Are there any other error logs beside “Whoops! Something went wrong!” ? You know that “Whoops!” is not even a hint. It is like throwing a screw driver at you by saying “Whoops!”. Not really consumer friendly.
Did they even try to investigate what the problem is? Asking for logs for example?
Nord was having issues yesterday with the CLI. Network Manager GUI worked fine, but with CLI it was near impossible to login.
nordvpn login --legacy resulted in:
It's not you, it's us. We're having trouble reaching our servers. If the issue persists, please contact our customer support.
nordvpn login result was:
unexpected end of JSON input
It appears to be fixed today. Maybe this was the cause of your issue.
There is the only error I got when I attempt to run "set threatprotectionlite on "
I also got one more issue, sometimes the VPN does not get activated automatically ad the start up.
The Nord VPN team asked for a logs file. We did some troubleshooting but the weren’t able to help me as they said to me Nord VON for Manjaro is not built by them, that’s why they told me to ask the community.
I have always had that issue related with set threat protection lite. It has never worked. Furthermore, sometimes the VPN does not connect at the start up, I have to run the command manually.
May I ask you which Nord VPN did you download? just to see wether it is the same or not.
Have tried to uninstall and reinstall Nord VPN via terminal but the issue persists. When I try to activate threat-protection lite I got the same error mentioned above.
I have also realized that threat protection lite gets on only if I am not connected to the VPN, in that case, it does switch on, otherwise, it doesn’t.
Are you able to switch on threat protection lite with no any issue?
