Eddie 2.21.6 will not connect to a VPN server

Recommended Posts

System:  Ubuntu 22.04 VM
Eddie:  2.21.6

Ubuntu system will not connect to a VPN host and just keeps retrying hosts.

Here are the logs from the console for two attempt cycles with the client.

I have seen similar posts as this but with the windows client.  Anyone have some thoughts on this?

Hello!

For a quick resolution, please renew your client  certificate from your account "Devices" panel, available in your "Client Area" in airvpn.org web site, then log your account out and in again from Eddie's main window (or generate new configuration files if you don't use Eddie). We started signing client certificates through SHA512 since 2017, so you must have an older one: thank you, you're a long time customer!

Explanation of the problem with additional details:

Yep!  That did it.  Runs like a champ now!  Thank you!

Was there any sort of announcement that I missed to do this?

It was the linked forum post alerting people to this problem, so no, no formal announcement. :)

I have just rebuilt my Ubuntu PC and also could not get Eddie to connect after reinstalling.
Renewing website Certificate also worked for me - easy. Thanks ++
