Bionic Beaver - not able to connect to WPA Enterprise EAP-TLS

[Kitsab]

Hello,

since update to Bionic Beaver I can't connect to my WPA2-Entertrise EAP TLS network. Running Freeradius 2.29 on a DDWRT router. In 16.04 it worked, in the dual boot Windows 10 environment it is still working with the same certificates.
It is a hidden network, adding it by "connect to a hidden network" entering SSID, UserID, ca.pem as CA cert, user cert xxx.p12 file and user certificate password.
Tried a lot not getting it working. The password entry dialog for the network is always popping up upon connection trials. The password is for sure the correct one, checked it very often.
If I'm able to I'll attach a syslog and kern.log of error occurense.

Thanks for investigation and inputs.

Best regards

Kitsab

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers of the software by following the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME. If you have done so, please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status. Thanks in advance.

Hello,

thank you fro taking care about this, I created a bug report at gnome bugzilla as requested:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=794988

Additional Information:
Maybe the bug reporting tool reported a wrong package, eventually the wpa-supplicant package is causing this issue (not sure).
I've recognized the status info is possibly wrong:UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install)
I performed an upgrade from 16.04, and 16.04. was upgraded from 14.04, (and I think 14.04 from 12.04 - not sure)

Best regards

Kitsab
