Hi all,
Fresh install using the garuda-dr460nized-linux-zen-221019.iso
Applied post-install updates using Garuda Setup Assistant.
Configured VPN using files imported from provider - attempts to connect to all servers time out.
Rolled back to initial snapshot post-install using Snapper Tools. Configured VPN before reapplying updates. VPN worked perfectly! As soon as updates reapplied, though... badness again ensues.
I have tried with UFW in enabled and disabled state.
I have tried most recent config files from VPN provider (Ivacy) and older ones. I have tried configuring the connections manually.
I tried re-importing VPN configs post-update as per this link: [SOLVED] VPN stopped working after update of openvpn and openssl / Networking, Server, and Protection / Arch Linux Forums
I have briefly spun up KDE Neon 20221117 and Fedora 37 but cannot reproduce the issue.
I think I have to roll back the individual openVPN packages to older versions and keep them from updating while this issue is fixed upstream. Pointers on how to do this gratefully received.
TIA.

I just tried spinning up an instance of EndeavourOS in VirtualBox, and configured my VPN - worked fine. This workaround does not help me, but it is another part of the puzzle.
Did you reboot, after updating but before setting up the VPN configuration? Certain things can be kind of broken after taking a big update, until you reboot.
Check in /var/cache/pacman/pkg for the old version you want to try rolling back to.
ls /var/cache/pacman/pkg | grep openvpn
Rolling back is as simple as working the package into this command:
sudo pacman -U file:///var/cache/pacman/pkg/old_package-version.pkg.tar.zst
Then crack open your pacman.conf and add the package to the IgnorePkg line so it will not be updated along with the rest of your packages.
sudo micro /etc/pacman.conf
...
IgnorePkg = name_of_package
...

Thanks.
I followed this process, and ended up with the following in my /etc/pacman.conf:
# Pacman won't upgrade packages listed in IgnorePkg and members of IgnoreGroup
IgnorePkg = networkmanager-openvpn-1.10.2-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst openvpn-2.5.8-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
#IgnoreGroup =
After the update, the problem persisted. Rolled back to the original snapshot, VPN connected just fine. Perhaps there is another package involved? :-/

Maybe you could try the linux-lts kernel with the new packages.

When updating, did you see a warning about those packages being ignored? Like (in my case)
warning: plymouth-git: ignoring package upgrade (22.02.122.r113.g1812e55a-1 => 22.02.122.r154.g96d050ce-1)
I think there shouldn't be .pkg.tar.zst there, only the package names.

Thanks for the suggestion.
I was able to reproduce the issue with linux-lts, linux-hardened, linux-zen, and linux-amd, all post-update.

No, no warning. I tried modifying the pacman.conf file to remove the .pkg.tar.zst suffix but it didn’t make a difference.
No warning, so I guess they have been updated again.pacman -U thing in the cache folder to downgrade again.
I rolled back the packages using this method, and the problem persisted. I can only get the VPN to work if I roll back to the original snapshot using snapper tools, or reinstall.
Would it be reasonable to suspect another package has been pulled in with the update to cause this?
Sounds reasonable, yes.networkmanager-support to the same version as in the working snapshot.
This should be just the package name–no version number or extension or anything else. In this case, just networkmanager-openvpn.
What leads you to believe that networkmanager-openvpn is the rotton apple, as opposed to openvpn or something else in the stack?
Can you paste the full package upgrade list, from after installing/before the update?
Just a quick sanity check:
Can you confirm the reboot was taken after the update?

I have this issue also, it started about a month ago. All my pre-set OpenVPN connections would no longer connect. I even retried importing all my connections using network managers import and still would not connect. I then used the CLI commands to do it, still no go.
I have seen network manger update a few times and even OpenVPN once during the past four weeks and it still doesn't work. There have plenty of OpenVPN issues open in the bug reports, so it is a waiting game. I had to switch to using L2TP connections for my VPN which I think is not as secure as OpenVPN, which worries me, although it seems to work.
Edit to add: When importing the OpenVPN file with network manager vs importing via terminal using 'sudo nmcli connection import type openvpn file XXXXXX.opvn', the latter imports more settings when viewed in network manager. It still won't connect, but it tells me there is definitely some issues with network manager (importing.)

Yes, I tried a full reinstall, and rebooted after the first update. No difference in outcome.
I successfully changed the pacman.conf file to hold back the openvpn and networkmanager-openvpn packages and got the warnings y’all indicated I would see. So far, so good. I also identified another package openfortivpn which I decided to hold back. After applying updates, the problem has changed from the VPN connection timing out, to an instant ‘failed to activate’ error message.
I will experiment with holding back each package individually to see what triggers the failure.

UPDATE: I rolled back to the first snapshot, and held back ONLY networkmanager-openvpn allowing openvpn and openfortivpn to update.
Success! My VPN is up and working. By process of elimination, networkmanager-openvpn seems to be the thorn among the roses.
Edited to add: thank you to all, and especially @BluishHumility for the input and assistance.

I'm using the latest networkmanager-openvpn on Arch with Nordvpn ovpn files since it was released with no issues. What vpn provider are you using?
EDIT: Just tried Nordvpn ovpn files on Garuda and it worked as expected.

Provider is Ivacy. I suppose it is too early to completely rule out the config files from the provider being the issue, although I tried manual configuring everything also.
@RodneyCK ?
I use Keepsolid VPN Unlimited. If we were using the same provider I would say yes, it may be the provider files, but two different providers, unlikely.
