Please do that, for completeness' sake. Close and reopen Eddie in a state which causes the error and try a connection once, then provide a system report:.

ANSWERED Can't connect to any server after update 2.26.2
Staff replied to cocot69's topic in Eddie - AirVPN Client
Hello! The problem was addressed on 2.27 beta versions. The latest beta version is available here, please feel free to test it, as it seems very solid even according to community testers: https://airvpn.org/forums/topic/81340-eddie-desktop-edition-227-beta-released/ Kind regards -
Eddie 2.26.2 not MacOS28 compatible - Why?
Staff replied to GoetzPhilippinen's topic in Eddie - AirVPN Client
Hello! Because the GUI is based on Mono and Mono has not been (and we're afraid it will never be) ported onto ARM architecture on Apple systems. The backend is already optimized for ARM Mx processors and the GUI will not require Rosetta anymore in the next release that will be available in due time. Kind regards -

Hi, I’m currently testing AirVPN/Eddie on Fedora 44 with KDE Plasma/Wayland and SELinux enforcing. I have run into two issues that seem Fedora/Linux specific. The main problem concerns the option “Don’t ask elevation every run.” If this option is disabled, Eddie works normally: I enter my password once, Network Lock works, and the VPN connection is established without problems. If I enable “Don’t ask elevation every run”, Eddie installs/uses the persistent systemd elevated helper, but after reboot Network Lock fails and Eddie is unable to connect. I already added the recommended firewalld setting: NftablesTableOwner=no to: /etc/firewalld/firewalld.conf and restarted firewalld. SELinux appears to be blocking the persistent elevated helper. Relevant AVC messages include: avc: denied { rename } for comm="eddie-cli-eleva" scontext=system_u:system_r:init_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:net_conf_t:s0 tclass=lnk_file There are also denials involving cleanup of Eddie/systemd-resolved files: avc: denied { unlink } for comm="eddie-cli-eleva" scontext=system_u:system_r:init_t:s0 tclass=file and nftables is denied access to the Network Lock backup file: avc: denied { getattr } for comm="nft" path="/var/lib/eddie-vpn/state/netlock_nftables_backup.nft" scontext=system_u:system_r:iptables_t:s0 tclass=file The Eddie state directory currently has root-only permissions: /var/lib/eddie-vpn/state drwx------ root root The visible Eddie error is essentially: Could not open file: /var/lib/eddie-vpn/state/netlock_nftables_backup.nft Permission denied I also tested the experimental Eddie 2.27 branch/version, but the behavior was unchanged. As soon as I disable “Don’t ask elevation every run” again and use the normal password elevation method, the VPN and Network Lock work correctly. This makes it look like the persistent systemd helper does not currently integrate correctly with Fedora’s SELinux policy. There is also a separate issue with KDE/Plasma: Eddie's icon in the taskbar does not work as expected. The “Minimize to the system tray” option is enabled in Eddie's settings, but when minimized, Eddie remains in the taskbar and does not minimize to the system tray. My environment: Fedora 44 KDE Plasma / Wayland SELinux: Enforcing firewalld: enabled NftablesTableOwner=no I have intentionally omitted account information, VPN server names, IP addresses, hostnames and other identifying information. I can provide additional sanitized logs if needed. Thanks

Why does it tell me I must install Rosetta now - why after years its still not ARM compatible?

Quick add: I'm now using VMs where networking works with Network Lock enabled. I use VMware Workstation, I do not remember what I was using when I wrote my previous comment in 2023. That said, I've only tested NAT mode, I haven't tried Bridged or other setups since I haven't used them recently. One thing to note is that VMware's NAT hands out 127.0.0.1:53 as the DNS server via DHCP for my setup. So I always change it manually on the guest machines that I set up. That said, I’m not entirely sure how solid Network Lock actually is. The Eddie client tends to be pretty unstable for me in a lot of areas. Still, it does display the lock icon when the VPN is active. -

Eddie Desktop Edition 2.27 beta released

It's looking more and more that there will be no solution. I'm going back and forth with airvpn staff and they are trying to figure out if anything can be done, but they said it is a hard problem due to the way libvirt and the network lock, further complicated by nft, iptables, iptalbes-legacy and nft-iptables work. Libvirt knows about this issue and has for years, but when it comes to network lock and the iptables being taken over by the lock, it's a mess. -
wow first world problems. you ever heard the saying "if it aint broke, don't fix it"? besides eddie pops up once when you boot, you connect and it disappears into the taskbar. you can even automate the connection process you don't have to click anything. plus you most of the time don't even notice you're using it because of the kickass speed we get backed by a team that respects and advocates for our privacy which is getting less and less by the day. oh and f*** a.i. but anyway good luck on your fork. i know i won't be using it.

kvm/qemu guest nat blocked by network lock
cheeze replied to cheeze's topic in Eddie - AirVPN Client
That's understandable. I'm in the midst of going back and forth with staff at AirVPN. They are very responsive and are sincerely trying to figure this out. I'm feeding them logs etc. Yet, From what I gather so far this may not be solved. If they can figure it out I'll be sure to inform you of what we did. -
Hello! Confirmed, the problem re-occurs periodically. We're investigating. Kind regards

kvm/qemu guest nat blocked by network lock
lotuslove165 replied to cheeze's topic in Eddie - AirVPN Client
It looks like I was wrong, sorry. I should have been clearer I was talking about LMDE but I just tried it again and I have the same issue there too. It used to work for me there some time ago (I've done a fresh install since then) I think the settings might have been different (tried but nothing worked) or maybe my network lock just wasn't configured right and was allowing the connection anyways (seems to drop out / forget to activate sometimes). I could have been using bridge mode or something there too I don't remember exactly to be honest. -
broken again...
-
Thank you.

This would also solve the same problem for libvirt and Nat for KVM/QEMU I presume.
-
I gave the procedure you suggested a try. As soon as the lock activates the NAT connection breaks. Thanks for the suggestion though.
-
I'll give this a try. Thank you

kvm/qemu guest nat blocked by network lock
cheeze replied to cheeze's topic in Eddie - AirVPN Client
I've only used NAT (default). Are you saying a NAT Mint guest does not suffer this issue and the connections works when Eddie lock in in? I've only tested this with a MXLinux, guest. Debian 13 derivative. -

Eddie Desktop edition 2.26.2 released
Riesengebirge replied to Staff's topic in News and Announcement
Oh, well... I guess we share the same levels of decrepitude then. Started at 13 on a Sinclair ZX-81, but of course the Commodore 64 was THE best computer of all time. At one point, I knew by heart how many CPU cycles each 6510 instruction used and what opcode each Assembly mnemonic translated to. That being said, my advice would be to ignore current MicroSlop's development guidelines - and Linux's, for that matter - and keep all program data in its own installation directory. -
Hello! If you run Eddie's uninstaller script for Windows, it does not remove the configuration file in the user's directory. It leaves both the directory and the configuration file inside it, including default.profile. This is intentional as uninstalling a software does not mean purging all the configuration files that can be preserved. No erratic behavior has been detected, it's just a script. This would be catastrophic in many cases. Firefox, Thunderbird, GitLab, Microsoft SQL SRS and probably hundreds of other programs do not support inverse migration (downgrade) in general, exactly for this problem. In case of a downgrade for which the configuration file becomes incompatible with the older version, deleting or overwriting the configuration files etc. will cause serious or, in case of absence of a recent backup, even dramatic inconvenience to the user. EDIT - NOTE BY THE DECREPIT FOUNDER In Eddie, profile preservation has an excellent side effect. The profile (encrypted or not) includes the client keys and server information, and Eddie reads them locally when it can't access the bootstrap servers. When you are in a restrictive network, or typically in specific countries (Iran, China, Russia...) the bootstrap servers or the protocol to reach them are not infrequently blocked. In such cases the user must first find another connection method, establish the connection and only then let Eddie contact the bootstrap servers to download the information that will be valuable for future connections. This is a once and for all operation that may be reproducible and performed in the face of potentially great adversity, so minimization of such a requirement is good. If we want to have a sad contest to see who’s the most decrepit, we have a good competitor. The founder of AirVPN built his first natural language parser in Assembly and BASIC in 1983 with a 1,500-word dictionary, pushing the limits of an 8-bit computer (a Commodore 64). Thirty-five years ago, he was already at CERN with Tim Berners-Lee who was creating HTML and testing and improving HTTP... But rest assured, he’s not the one working on Windows - it gives him an allergic reaction. 🤣 You can bet that he was behind the earlier caustic jokes about Windows. 🤔 Kind regards

Eddie Desktop edition 2.26.2 released
Riesengebirge replied to Staff's topic in News and Announcement
You're assuming a lot, aren't you? After uninstalling v2.26.2, and before trying to reinstall the previous version, I triple checked and there were no Eddie leftover directories anywhere in the system drive. Just for the sake of clarity, I did the whole process again, and this time the v2.26.2 uninstall DID leave Eddie config directories behind. It would seem to me that your uninstaller behaves erratically at times. And yes, a well written installer should be smart enough to detect config files from previous versions and, if it's unable to gather useful info from them, at least overwrite them, resetting the config. Were you even alive and already programming 31 years ago? Forgive me, this was irresistible... -
It works! 😀 Thank you so much for your work! This fix for a persistent bug related to privilege escalation allows me to upgrade directly from version 2.25.1 to version 2.27.2. I can therefore confirm to anyone who is a bit too quick to criticize the eddie-ui user interface that version 2.27.2 poses no obstacle to its use on current operating systems, and that—among many other options—it allows you to choose between 3 WireGuard protocols and more than 50 for OpenVPN! When free software works perfectly, is secure, and offers the end user so much freedom of choice in a graphical interface, we should 👏 thank and encourage the developers rather than criticizing the project for no good reason without contributing improvements in the form of pull requests or forks. 🌻 I hope that other users who encountered similar privilege escalation issues will take as much pleasure as I did in thanking the development team.

Hello, A native AltStore source is now available for the full build (native WireGuard connect/disconnect, Live Activity, widget). It requires a paid Apple Developer account connected or P12 Certificate to AltServer/SideStore and more, since the Personal VPN entitlement can't be granted to a free account. Source Link : https://api.altstore.io/source/raw.githubusercontent.com/zlimteck/AirDash/main/altstore-source.json Last version : Airdash 1.0.12. Zlimteck.
