Looking at Synaptic, the version of OpenVPN is 2.4.2-2ubuntu1. Over on the Manjaro forum at https://forum.manjaro.org/t/vpn-connection- failed/15259/4 , I see that ..
> !! NOTICE !! > OpenVPN 2.4.0 update may require administrative interaction > The upgrade to openvpn 2.4.0 makes changes that are incompatible with previous configuration. Take special care if you depend on VPN connectivity for remote access! Administrative interaction is required: >> Configuration is expected in sub directories now. Move your files from /etc/openvpn/ to /etc/openvpn/server/ or /etc/openvpn/client/. The plugin lookup path has changed. Remove extra plugins/ from relative paths. >> The systemd unit openvpn@.service was replaced with openvpn-client@.service and openvpn-server@.service. Restart and reenable accordingly. My guess is that the OpenVPN update that impacts Manjaro also impacts Ubuntu 18.04. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1772066 Title: Ubuntu 18.04 Network-Manager-OpenVPN won't connected, worked in 17.10, 17.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-openvpn/+bug/1772066/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
