Fri Dec 30 23:50:54 2016 Exiting due to fatal error

 

- I tried with the client. The .ded (stable AND experimental) didn't want to install on the system.

 

- I tried with portable client (stable AND experimental) but when I launch "airvpn" nothing happens.

 

- I tried with the network-manager. Importing the config file was a success and I passed to connect to the VPN  ..... Yes, but all websites are unreachable (DNS issue because I can ping a specific IP) :

   # I wrote in the settings in the networkmanager the dns server (10.4.0.1). Same issue : DNS does not work.

   # I changed the nameserver in the resolv.conf .... but same thing the DNS doe not do the job.

 

So i need help. What can I do now ?

 

Thanks

Download the experimental version (click on "Other versions" + "Experimental" before downloading your version -32 or 64 bits-). Then right click on the deb file and open it with the installer, type your password and done. Don't forget to activate network lock before connecting to some server.

To fix that, you need to run it as root.

Hello!

 

Do you have an installer program such as gdebi available? If not, do download it. Although it should've come with your distro.

 

Have you tried launching AirVPN from the terminal, so that you'll perhaps see any error messages? When you tried to install the .deb experimental, did you get any notifications?

 

That last line is also interesting. Are you running as root?

 

I can't remember if Eddie has problems with the network manager; I seem to remember something regarding that.

[pr1v 36]

The problem is that, trying to execute it from the terminal without sudo, but doing it graphically as I said is easier in Ubuntu (I did it in the same operative system), the installer will appear with the program to install and clicking to install will ask for your password.

First, thank you guys

 

Before your answers I had modified my /etc/network/interfaces

now, it is like this :

[main]
plugins=ifupdown,keyfile,ofono
#dns=dnsmasq

[ifupdown]
managed=true 

All my tests on airvpn were unsuccessful. BUT I passed to connect to another vpn (a little free vpn that I occasionally use) which had the same issue and was unable to connect to internet.

I launched my openvpnconfig into the terminal as root ... and it worked !

 

It is a good thing even if I find that through the terminal is not very useful (lack of visibility connection/disconnection)

 

 

 

Next attempt :

 launched the portable client from the terminal and thanks to the error message, I noticed that I downloaded the wrong file (32/64 bits) ... ewww my bad

Now the portable client (stable version) works !

 

In progress :

So, now, only the connection through the network-manager does not work but of course it is my favourite method.

 

If you any idea for the network-manager, thank you, if not, at least I can use my connection by different ways.

 

Thank you all

[pr1v 36]

I recommend you to use Eddie with network lock always. But if you want to use the network manager (I read in some other place it's not safe) then check if you added lzo compression or not (but use it disabled).

yeah what pr1v said

 

i've been around linux a few days

and i still can't handle network-mangler

 

that's the first thing i do on any distro

i remove that app before it sends me into

a rehab or mental institution
