Description Avesh Agarwal 2012-03-08 21:13:34 UTC
Description of problem:
It is not possible to set up VPN connection using NM-openswan. And the reason is that NM does not like the information sent by opensnwan and terminate the connection.

This seems like regression as it used to work with Fedora 15 before. and it works with RHEL too.  


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
NetworkManager-0.9.1.90-3.git20110927.fc15.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a VPN connection with NM-openswan
2. Start the establishment of connection
3. NM terminates the connection.
  
Actual results:
NM does not let VPN connection establish.

Expected results:
NM should let VPN connection establish.

I also looked at Openswan logs and they show that connection is established correctly.

Comment 1 Jirka Klimes 2012-03-26 14:19:53 UTC
Does it work with more recent NM (e.g on F16)?

Would you try this scratch build:

If there are still problems, please run NetworkManager with --log-level=DEBUG to get more detailed logs.

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-07 16:06:48 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no
longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it
against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that
version of Fedora.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:
