Today I noticed that NetworkManager is not storing passwords for WPA2 networks. I enter the password on connecting, but when I go to the Network Connections dialog the password field is blank and I get on the terminal:

** (nm-connection-editor:23985): WARNING **: Invalid setting Wi-Fi Security: Invalid Wi-Fi security

Even as root this happens. In fact, network information is supposed to be in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections but this directory is empty.

For now I'm using wicd, even though it doesn't see much updating anymore. Any ideas?

I'm running Fedora 18 and the NetworkManager-related packages I have are:

NetworkManager-vpnc-0.9.3.997-3.fc18.x86_64
NetworkManager-glib-0.9.8.1-3.git20130514.fc18.x86_64
NetworkManager-openvpn-0.9.3.997-3.fc18.x86_64
NetworkManager-0.9.8.1-3.git20130514.fc18.x86_64
NetworkManager-pptp-0.9.3.997-3.fc18.x86_64
NetworkManager-openconnect-0.9.7.0-1.git20120918.fc18.x86_64

  • You might want to try a newer version of NM from here: admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/search/…, as a last ditch effort if you can't resolve it any other way. Commented Jun 20, 2013 at 12:07
  • I will try it when I get home, then I will update the question. Commented Jun 20, 2013 at 15:46

Try forgetting your network and connecting back to it.
