Credentials Are Definitely Correct, Can't Connect #285

Closed doctordeity closed 3 years ago

doctordeity commented 3 years ago

I just got ProtonVPN Plus. I keep entering and re-entering, intializing and uninitializing, and even uninstalling and re-installing, and yet I just cannot connect. I've tried running from the terminal, and I've tried running from the GUI. Yet I still cannot connect, because this program insists that my username and password is incorrect. This is what I'm using: Static hostname: taki Icon name: computer-laptop Chassis: laptop Machine ID: 77a06c28e11a4c259d10c7d28804cdd7 Boot ID: 375668de31314710bd54be61b8b10260 Operating System: Manjaro Linux Kernel: Linux 5.10.13-2-MANJARO Architecture: x86-64 As I am using Manjaro Linux, this is my only option for using ProtonVPN on my computer. It works just fine on my phone. I gave it Poltik Support (I'm admittedly not sure if I escalated its privileges correctly, so a tutorial on that would be nice.)

I figured it out!

So, for anyone else who is having this problem:

Go on the ProtonVPN site, go to Account, then FIND YOUR OPENVPN CREDENTIALS. Use that information to initialize and connect to your ProtonVPN account.
