Fedora 44 Gnome -Error at startup, Gemini suggested to delete the file, but the path didnt even exist. Second suggestion was to switch to iptables, but that didnt work either. Anyone with similar problems or a solution?

Unable to obtain elevated privileges (required) with v2.24
socks5time replied to nopcode85's topic in Eddie - AirVPN Client
I had the same problem on Win7 and tried several versions. I got it working by uninstalling it, deleting the profile folder in AppData\Local, restarting the pc and running the eddie-ui_2.24.6_windows-7_x64_installer version as Admin. Now all the servers show up again. -

Unable to create systemd service in base Debian or LMDE
Clodo replied to Killerkrill's topic in Eddie - AirVPN Client
Yes, it's a known issue already addressed (need testing) please wait the 2.27.0 experimental version the first days of the next week. Thanks. -

Hi, I've upgraded multiple desktop clients to 2.26.2 today. When I select the "Don't ask elevation every run", the system reports "Can't create service in this OS", including when eddie-ui is run with sudo. This applies to all copies installed on Linux Mint Debian edition (version 7 with kernel 6.12.101) and Base Debian 13.6 (kernel 6.12.101) are now unable to create a systemd service to automatically run eddie (which is problematic for those people that have and need eddie as a start up program, and the use of network lock is not available). When the relevant admin password is provided eddie continues to function as expected including logging into the relevant servers. Are there any known workarounds for this change (other than manually creating the systemd service, which makes the internal option somewhat redundant)?

Thanks to the support team. This private tracker limits uploads for new users, not downloads. -

ANSWERED CAN'T SEED (QBTORRENT + MAC OS)
Staff replied to Flexion's topic in Troubleshooting and Problems
Hello! @Flexion informed the support team that the problem was caused by the specific configuration of a private tracker limiting downloads for new users for a certain period of time. Therefore, "non-priority user" will have trouble in seeding. 🙄 Case closed. 😁 Kind regards -
Hello! It's expected, unfortunately. Eddie includes the latest WireGuard version which requires macOS 12 Monterey or higher versions. The privacy protection offered by OpenVPN, anyway, is slightly higher than that offered by WireGuard. Furthermore there is no WireGuard kernel module for macOS so the performance gain you have on other systems from saving kernel space↔userspace crossing and packet-buffer movements is lost. Kind regards

Countries and servers not showing in Eddie 2.21.8
Staff replied to Howlingwolf's topic in Eddie - AirVPN Client
Hello! In this case you need to run either the AirVPN Suite, WireGuard or OpenVPN. Please see here: https://airvpn.org/forums/topic/79336-airvpn-suite-resources If you opt for WireGuard or OpenVPN native software, our Configuration Generator, available on your AirVPN account "Client Area", can generate all the profiles you need. Eddie Desktop edition runs on hundreds of distribution, but it is objectively difficult to offer total compatibility with all the 500+ actively maintained ones. However, the supported amount increases. For example, in this last version Eddie offers enhanced compatibility with distributions based on SysV-style init (before this version only the Suite had total compatibility with init based distros). Kind regards -
Yeah, that fixed me. All the servers are back. I couldn't connect through WireGuard though. I had to use openVPN. As long as that provides me the same protection though I'm fine.
-
They have a version thta will run on older macs. I'm in the same boat and just downloaded a version that works for me. Look in the download section.

Thanks for taking the time to respond promptly. Will update Eddie as I am using a prior-than-current version. Thanks again Airvpn.

Countries and servers not showing in Eddie 2.21.8
nopcode85 replied to Howlingwolf's topic in Eddie - AirVPN Client
Cannot upgrade, newer versions do not work. See other posts on this and related access failures. - Last week

This happened to me today. I went from the usual list of servers to 17. Here's what fixed it: 1. Update to latest version of Eddie 2. It refused to connect as it said There is no available or enabled Network Lock mode, sorry. So I went to preferences and changed network lock settings from 'none' to auto. It still didn't work... 3. Quit Eddie and reopened it and... It seems to be working again.

Countries and servers not showing in Eddie 2.21.8
nopcode85 replied to Howlingwolf's topic in Eddie - AirVPN Client
Also having the same problem, but with version 2.19. So something has changed badly. -
Solved! Kind regards

Never mind. Just after posting I checked the white list in my firewall. Turned out "Eddie-CLI-Elevated-Service.exe" was not there. Strange, as it only needs to be on the whitelist when using WireGuard. OpenVPN worked without that entry. --- original message --- In short: Eddie 2.21.8. works (openvpn). 2.24.6 and beta 2.26.2 don't (wireguard). The issue: 2 Almost identical Windows 10 systems connected to the same router, static IP. Both ran Eddie 2.21.8 for a long while without issues. Updated 1st system to 2.26.2 which works flawlessly using Wireguard. The 2nd system however won't connect with the exact same settings. (even tried copying the profile from the working sys.) Same with 2.24.6. Where to start looking to troubleshoot? I do get a server list but getting a WireGuard Handshake timeout when connecting. . 2026.08.21 16:42:30 - WireGuard > Setup start . 2026.08.21 16:42:30 - WireGuard > Setup complete . 2026.08.21 16:42:30 - WireGuard > Setup interface W 2026.08.21 16:43:21 - WireGuard > Handshake timeout ! 2026.08.21 16:43:21 - Disconnecting . 2026.08.21 16:43:21 - WireGuard > Stop request received . 2026.08.21 16:43:21 - WireGuard > Stopping . 2026.08.21 16:43:21 - WireGuard > Completed Since the other system works it must be something obvious but I just can't find it!

Eddie 2.26.2 Desktop Edition released Hello! We're very glad to inform you that a new stable release of Eddie is now available for Linux (various ARM based architectures included, making it compatible with several Raspberry Pi systems), macOS, Windows. Special thanks to all the beta testers, whose invaluable contributions and suggestions in the last months have helped developers fix several bugs and improve the overall stability of the software. Eddie is a free and open source (GPLv3) OpenVPN GUI and CLI by AirVPN with many additional features such as: traffic leaks prevention via packet filtering rules DNS handling optional connections over Tor or a generic proxy customizable events traffic splitting on a destination IP address or host name basis complete and swift integration with AirVPN infrastructure with OpenVPN and WireGuard white and black lists of VPN servers ability to support IPv4, IPv6 and IPv6 over IPv4 support to Linux systems based on systemd and SysV-style init This version includes bug fixes and security improvements as well as OpenVPN, WireGuard and libraries updates. A new Eddie UI is in the works. We know we’ve been promising that for a long time, but development is well along. Stay tuned. Operating and architectural notes Eddie GUI and CLI run with normal user privileges, while a "backend" binary, which communicates to the user interface with authentication, gains root/administrator privileges, with important security safeguards in place featured in this new version: strict parsing is enforced before passing a profile to OpenVPN in order to block insecure OpenVPN directives fix for CVE-2025-14979 backend hardened authentication of client commands hardened security for sensitive operations client memory usage protection through limitation of client helper replies general cleanup Furthermore: external system binaries which need superuser privileges (examples: openvpn, iptables, hummingbird) will not be launched if they do not belong to a superuser. Eddie events are not run with superuser privileges: instead of trusting blindly user's responsibility and care when dealing with events, the user is required to explicitly operate to run something with high privileges, if strictly necessary Please consult the changelog for a more detailed and exhaustive list. Backend binary is written in C++ on all systems (Windows included), making the whole application faster. Settings, certificates and keys of your account stored on your mass storage can optionally be encrypted on all systems either with a Master Password or in a system key-chain if available. Download Eddie 2.26.2 Eddie 2.26.2 can be downloaded here: https://airvpn.org/linux - Linux version (several architectures and various distribution specific packages for easier installation) https://airvpn.org/macos - Mac version https://airvpn.org/windows - Windows version Eddie is free and open source software released under GPLv3. Source code is available on GitHub: https://github.com/AirVPN/Eddie Complete changelog can be found here. Kind regards & datalove AirVPN Staff

Hello! We're sorry, Eddie 2.24.6 requires macOS Mojave or higher versions. If your Mac is Intel based you can run Hummingbird 2.1.0 (Hummingbird is optimized for Apple Silicon Mx too, but with this CPU Hummingbird requires Mojave or higher versions). Alternatively, you can consider OpenVPN Connect, or Tunnelblick 3.8.8g, but this Tunnelblick version contains serious vulnerabilities: https://www.tunnelblick.net/downloadsDeprecated.html Kind regards

Thank you, that's solved the problem for me.

Thank you for that reply, but my query was about Mac High Sierra — can you tell me if I can run Eddie 2.24.6 using that version of Mac OS? I don't want to completely mess up my connection if it's not possible.
