Configuration '****' is not secure. It should be reinstalled.

[Alexei Korzhov]

I just re-installed Mac OS, imported VPN configs and now getting this error:
Configuration '****' is not secure. It should be reinstalled.

In the application logs i see this:

Could not start OpenVPN (openvpnstart returned with status #254)
Contents of the openvpnstart log:
openvpnstart log:

     /Library/Application Support/Tunnelblick/Shared/*****.tblk permissions are 0700; they should be 0755

     pathIsNotSecure: pathComponentIsNotSecure(/Library/Application Support/Tunnelblick/Shared/******.tblk, 0755)

     /Library/Application Support/Tunnelblick/Shared/*****.tblk is not secured

If i set 755 using chown tool I'm starting to get this error:

Could not start OpenVPN (openvpnstart returned with status #254)
Contents of the openvpnstart log:
openvpnstart log:

     /Library/Application Support/Tunnelblick/Shared/*****.tblk permissions are 0755; they should be 0700

     /Library/Application Support/Tunnelblick/Shared/*****.tblk is not secured

Please help with resolving this issue, thanks!

What did you do when you "imported VPN configs"? (If you used Tunnelblick's built-in import/export setup feature, please report this as a bug.)

Try installing the configurations by dragging/dropping them onto the Tunnelblick icon in the menu/status bar.

So, I used 'Export Tunnelblick setup' from the Application menu to get this file Tunnelblick Setup 2024-03-15 22.45.36.990018.tblkSetup

For import I just execute it because when I did dragging/dropping onto the Tunnelblick icon in the menu/status bar - nothing happened and configuration was not added.

One important detail that after Application reload I can see imported VPNs but still the same issue. And the issue on different version even on old stable like 3.8.7a (build 5770)

[Tunnelblick developer]

I'm sorry and apologize for this bug. With Tunnelblick 4.0.1 installed, please try copy/pasting the following into /Applications/Utilities/Terminal:

     sudo /Applications/Tunnelblick.app/Contents/Resources/installer 0x11

(You must be logged in as a computer administrator, not a standard user, to do this.)

You will be asked for your password. Nothing will be shown as you type it in (not even "*" characters), but press the enter/return key after typing it.

That may fix the problem but, immediately after  that, before you try Tunnelblick again, please copy the following file to your Desktop:

     /Library/Application support/Tunnelblick/tunnelblick-installer-log.txt

After you see if the installer command fixed the problem, please email the copy of the  file from your Desktop to devel...@tunnelblick.net. The file will be short, so you can either copy/paste it or send it as an attachment. There shouldn't be any confidential information in the file. It will contain filenames, which are not usually confidential.
