I performed an upgrade last week (which may or may not be related). Today, I noticed that the Fortinet SSLVPN plugin for network manager (GUI) is not working. It has worked in the past.

Reproducing error:

Open "VPN Settings", select "Add VPN" (big plus icon) and select "Fortinet SSLVPN".

Instead of the options to configure a VPN, I receive the following Window:




cat /etc/os-release

When opening, I noticed the following (maybe related) message on /var/log/message
