The VPN connection 'xxxxx' failed because there were no valid VPN secrets.

I think I solved the problem.



The source of the problem is - the application nm-pptp-auth-dialog wants to access the keyring to search for the password.



The problem: there is no such record in the keyring table. so it returns an error. Due to a bug, the application do not append the record in the first place!



solution:







make a new VPN connection. Connect to it. Click Deny when prompted: "Allow application to access keyring?"



then enter the password manually, and check "Save password in keyring"



then click Allow Always



and Wallah, you have just created the required entry in the keyring! You'll no longer have "no secerts" problem!



(goto applications > accessories > keyring manager > passwords to see it!)



Hope this helps. Please let me know if it doesn't.
