Hi all,
I've installed the last version of Forticlient (7.0.0.0018) on my Ubuntu virtual machine (version 20.04.3)
I've setup a SSL VPN, but it's not working, I've receive two errors:
[ul]With the same credetials and settings I'm able to connect on a Windows machine
Anyone have encountered these errors? How can I fix the connection?
Thanks in advance,
Jack

Hi, I am having the same issue as well. Updated my fortigate to latest version and still unable to connect using Forticlient 7.0.1/ 6.4.4. The only way to connect in is to use openFortiGUI (https://hadler.me/linux/openfortigui/)...
However, I still wish to use official forticlient and so far it is not working. I have tried contacting support but they said it's my network/configuration setting.
I started a whole new VM of fortigate with no configs, only a SSL VPN setup and was also unable to connect in via forticlient.

Hi Jack,
I am using the fortiOS from aws marketplace. Previously i was using the FortiOS v6.4.4 build1803 (ubuntu forticlients doesn't work) and i thought that it could be fortiOS. So i upgraded my fortiOS to FortiOS v7.0.1 build0157 (GA) (THIS IS THE LATEST PATCH).
Forticlient still does not work...
I actually have plans to purchase their forti-tokens to have 2FA for my forticlient but ubuntu forticlient cannot even work. I have been looking for solutions for ubuntu forticlient to get it to work but to no avail.

Hi boheee,
thank for your answer
I've tried openFortiGUI too and I'm able to connect to the VPN, so I think the problem is the official client
Which version of FortiOS do you have? I've a Fortigate 90D with FortiOS 6.0.12
Regards,
Jack

Any updates regarding making FortiClient VPN working on Ubuntu 20.4
I'm having similar issue. the error I get in sslvpn.log file:
- vpn_connection:341 Load CA certificates failed
- vpn_connection:1133 Failed create SSL
- dns:277 No default device found. Skip.
- route:159 begin cleanup linux...
- route:161 clean up route...
- main:1457 exception: Failed create SSL
Note the certificate fail, though I marked Client Certificate=None.
PS. If fortivpn isn't recognized either add /opt/forticlient to the $PATH or substitute it with ./opt/forticlient/fortivpn
PSS. You will need to repeat steps 4-8 every time you need to connect.
