Description of problem: When connecting to VPN via Network Manager, either clicking on 'On' next to VPN Connections or selecting the VPN by name, it fails to initiate the VPN Connection. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 20 Alpha How reproducible: Everytime Steps to Reproduce: 1. Configured VPN using Network Settings. 2. Clicked add, interface type VPN and clicked Create. 3. Selected Cisco AnyConnect Compatible VPN (openconnect) and clicked create. 4. Entered in Gateway and clicked Save. 5. Initiate connection via Name or VPN Connections. 6. No dialog box for prompting for credentials. Actual results: Starting connection to VPN via Network Manager does nothing. Expected results: Starting connection to VPN via Network Manager prompts for credentials and connects to VPN. Additional info: Similar to bug 1014716 however system is running the version of Network Manager stated and dialog box does not appear requesting credentials. Running openconnect via the shell using the following command works successfully. openconnect --script /etc/vpnc/vpnc-script remote.somevpn.com tail -f /var/log/messages Oct 9 19:59:59 LAPTOP NetworkManager[1023]: <info> Starting VPN service 'openconnect'...

That's weird. Do you get prompted for a password if you try to connect to a wifi network that it doesn't have a saved password for? Does "Alt+F2 r [RETURN]" to restart the shell fix things?
I do not get a prompt for a password when connecting to a new network with a password. If I add the password via Network Manager, it connects but VPN still does not work. Restarting the shell does not fix it. tail -f /var/log/messages Oct 10 11:34:27 Laptop NetworkManager[778]: <info> Activation (wlp3s0) starting connection 'Auto My-wireless' Oct 10 11:34:27 Laptop NetworkManager[778]: <info> (wlp3s0): device state change: disconnected -> prepare (reason 'none') [30 40 0] Oct 10 11:34:27 Laptop NetworkManager[778]: <info> NetworkManager state is now CONNECTING Oct 10 11:34:27 Laptop NetworkManager[778]: <info> Activation (wlp3s0) Stage 1 of 5 (Device Prepare) scheduled...

What session type are you using? (GNOME, GNOME Classic, KDE, etc)
Cinnamon - no software rendering.
ok, so the answer (for now) is probably to start "nm-applet" by hand
I will try this and update the bug.
That works. I can work with that. Let me know if there is more data you need.
