After 7 days (20+ suspend/resume), I couldn't reproduce the problem with:

ExecStartPre=/usr/bin/sleep 5

Hello!

Can you please test the new beta 2? The problem you reported has been addressed through a different approach. The "sleep 5" solution is aleatory and relatively unsafe in our opinion so we decided for another solution. Feel free to keep us posted!

Kind regards

Hello,

I've been using beta 2 for 4 days now. Can confirm that the issue seems to be fixed. I suspended/resumed 5 times since then and bluetit always reconnected successfully after resuming. This is of course without

ExecStartPre=/usr/bin/sleep 5

since /etc/systemd/system/bluetit-resume.service was overwritten after updating to beta 2. I ran
 

systemctl daemon-reload

and even rebooted the machine just to make sure that it was no longer used.

Will keep testing and report back if the issue occurs again, so far so good.

Thanks.

Hello!

Please test the new beta 2. This somehow devised workaround should be no more necessary, not even on Wayland based environments, not even for browser. Only exception is Konqueror, that defies all the work by airsu and cuckoo. When Konqueror is launched, it always asks the KIO manager for a fork of the initial instance. Just in case you want to run Konqueror as a browser whose traffic must be outside the VPN tunnel, please take care to kill any previous instance before starting Konqueror through cuckoo. As an alternative for a Qt framework based browser that doesn't pose this issue, Falkon can be considered, as it does not depend on KIO.

Kind regards
 

All good so far on Fedora!

Hello!

It looks like an architecture error. Can you please check whether you have installed the correct package? Please make sure you download the proper package for your OpenSUSE architecture (x86-64, aarch64 etc.).

Kind regards

It works, first removed the old package.
Then installed it.
But I use it as I am used to, via the console with (allowuservpnprofiles on)
I find all the new options too difficult unfortunately.
Will try soon.

Thanks Colorman

I had this "ERROR: Cannot allow system DNS to pass through network filter" error message. 

I changed the /etc/airvpn/bluetit.rc setting `networklockpersist` from `off` to `on`, and it worked fine.  I have ufw installed.

Hello!

After the problem occurred, please send us the output of:

sudo journalctl | grep bluetit

If you wish to test with ufw disabled:

sudo ufw disable

Kind regards

The Airvpn Suite installer currently fails on fedora atomic spins like Silverblue because the /sbin directory is not writeable. Is there a recommended way to install it on such distros? (updated systemd unit file or somesuch)

Also it would be good to package this up for Homebrew, as this would also work on atomic desktops like Silverblue.
