Do you have a problem while adding before connecting?
Yes, basically the GUI is stuck on loading servers (cf. screenshot) and log:
time=2026年03月11日T10:33:48.280+01:00 level=DEBUG msg="got HTTP 304 for discovery, server_list.json is not modified"
Sometimes, the app opens on a different screen (cf. 2nd screenshot) and is stuck again (nothing clickable). The last log indicates the same message as above.
I've tried to remove the app, delete ".config/eduvpn" and all possible files with eduvpn in the name, still stuck at the same point on re-install.
Using the command line, I manage to go a bit further, list the servers and select the one of my institution. The link gets open in firefox and the page gets stuck upon clicking "Approve" = no reaction. In chromium, the SSO works but it still gets stuck on the "Approve" button, the last log indicates:
2026年03月11日 10:49:51,415 - open-browser - DEBUG - eduvpn.app - app.py:117 - Done waiting for browser
After this the server is somehow "semiregistered". The eduvpn does not appear in NetworkManager but the server is listed with cli's list and trying to connect to it leads to:
time=2026年03月11日T10:53:37.383+01:00 level=DEBUG msg="FSM transition" old=Main new=GettingConfig
2026年03月11日 10:53:37,383 - <function ApplicationModelTransitions.getting_config at 0x74c06dcb7c40> - DEBUG - eduvpn.app - app.py:63 - Transition: GETTING_CONFIG, old state: 1
I have been using the app before on kubuntu and it has always been unstable but it was roughly working-ish. Now it has become completely unsable and this is now the only way to connect to my institution's vpn.
Please help thanks!
(P.S. I don't believe this has anything to do with my own institution, the client works completely fine on the Ipad, it is most likely related to a poor integration with kde components)
