wizard error - Unable to setup VPN: Empty values are not allowed

In using the FortiGate to FortiGate IPSec VPN wizard got the following error:

Unable to setup VPN: Empty values are not allowed

This has been reported a few times on the support forums.

Workaround is to relaunch the wizard and go through it again.

Which version of FOS are you using? Have you tried a manual configuration in the CLI?

I'm running 5.2.4. The first note I saw in the support forum was from March and did not mention version.

Thanks for pointing out that I failed to include that info.
