If you get an error that looks like

f5vpn: error while loading shared libraries: libicuuc.so.72: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

that means that your version of qt5-webkit is out-of-date with your icu version, and rebuilding/installing qt5-webkit` will fix your issue.

Since qt5-webkit takes a long time to build, see this comment from the maintainer of the qt5-webkit AUR package to download a build of that dependency.

Sorry about that, you were right--it was a corrupt source file on my side

zrhoffman commented on 2021-03-15 14:39 (UTC)

@AulusAgerius: Please check your setup (and completely remove the f5vpn AUR directory before trying again, if necessary). The RPM does pass the validity check for me.

AulusAgerius commented on 2021-03-15 13:05 (UTC)

Build fails as it does not pass the validity check (again, I guess):

f5vpn-login is super slow. If it's working for you, try https://github.com/zrhoffman/svpn-login or https://github.com/kayrus/gof5 for something way faster.

@zrhoffman After updating to the latest version I no longer get an update prompt when starting the connection, but the client still gets stuck on "Connecting" with the same log message.

I'll gladly provide any further information if needed. I've temporarily moved to using your f5vpn-login client which works well, but is a bit slower.

zrhoffman commented on 2020-10-12 08:06 (UTC)

Updated the AUR package to 7210.2020.0826.1. If an outdated client was the issue, it should work for you now.

mike_yella commented on 2020-10-12 07:05 (UTC)

@zrhoffman thank you for the quick reply. The server's version is:

f5vpn-7210.2020.0826.1-1

zrhoffman commented on 2020-10-09 15:27 (UTC)

@mike_yella That is strange. What version is your server running? You can find that by running:

curl -LO --compressed https://YourVpnServer/public/download/linux_f5vpn.x86_64.rpm &&
    head -n1 linux_f5vpn.x86_64.rpm |
    grep -oE --text 'f5vpn-[[:digit:]]{4}\.[[:digit:]]{4}\.[[:digit:]]{4}\.[[:digit:]]-[[:digit:]]'

mike_yella commented on 2020-10-09 12:44 (UTC)

As of today, I can't get past "Connecting". Last vpn.log entry is always:

2020-10-09,15:11:07:529, 8853,8853,, 48, /BrowserController.cpp, 579, void f5::qt::BrowserController::onTunnelConnecting(QString, int), Tunnel <redacted> (2) connecting...

Tried reinstalling f5vpn and downgrading kernel to 5.8.13 (which used to work for sure) but that didn't fix it. Anyone else having similar issues?

zrhoffman commented on 2020-10-03 23:58 (UTC)

So much for that, they downgraded to 7160.2018.0417.1 again. Reverted package back to 7183.2020.0108.1 on another mirror.
