Hi,

small thing. On a fresh install and nothing done so far the GUI looks like this:

Pressing now on the red cross button "Delete tunnel", results in:

Happy to drop logs or whatever is required.

This would be sooo useful for my laptop I hate having to use wg-quick on a crappy keyboard. I think feature wise is ok it would just be nice to have proper builds

Ubuntu 22
both versions

how to reproduce:

feed to wireguird the vpn config file that contains the line for allowed ips which is very long and does not fit to window
wireguird window extends to fit the line and makes window to get clipped by screen bounds

Hi,
the installation causes an unmet dependency error on Ubuntu 22.10 and most likely on current Debian, since they are using libayatana-appindicator as the successor of libappindicator for versions >= Bullseye.
You might want to consider switching as well.

Hello, it seems this app doesn't work with Linux Mint 21 which uses Ubuntu 22.04.

Trying to install the .deb results in Error: Cannot install 'libappindicator3-dev'

I am opening wireguird via startup and I would like to amend the wish-list either with a commandline option "--hide" to move it straight the task bar or an option in the settings.
Everything else works very nice!

Would it be possible to add the feature to disable and enable "Block untunneled traffic (kill switch)"? This toggle is available in Windows client.

I am trying to use the firewall Portmaster with Wireguird enabled but internet stops working unless I shutdown Portmaster. On Windows I just uncheck "Block untunneled traffic (kill switch)" and the internet then starts working when I use Portmaster.

Hello, wil be possible to make AUR package?

Regards.

Hi,

I was trying to install in this way but it did not work

alex@host:~$ sudo dpkg -i ./wireguird_amd64.deb
dpkg-deb: error: archive './wireguird_amd64.deb' uses unknown compression for member 'control.tar.zst', giving up
dpkg: error processing archive ./wireguird_amd64.deb (--install):
dpkg-deb --control subprocess returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:
./wireguird_amd64.deb

Hello, I'm attempting to install v1.0.0 in Linux Mint Debian Edition (LMDE) and I get this odd error when running the .deb file:

dpkg-deb: error: archive '/home/me/Downloads/wireguird_amd64.deb' uses unknown compression for member 'control.tar.zst', giving up
dpkg: error processing archive /home/me/Downloads/wireguird_amd64.deb (--install):
 dpkg-deb --control subprocess returned error exit status 2

would be nice if people outside of debian based distros can also use wireguird

Some VPN providers are exporting the config files of multiple tunnels at once, in a single zip file. There should be a way to import these without extracting & importing each manually.

I tried installing via compiling, but I found a few issues.

wireguird: cleaning...
rm: cannot remove './build/wireguird_amd64.deb': No such file or directory
wireguird: building go binary...
./package.sh: line 7: go: command not found
wireguird: copying icons...
wireguird: building debian package...
mkdir: cannot create directory ‘./build/’: File exists
dpkg-deb: error: control directory has bad permissions 777 (must be >=0755 and <=0775)
wireguird: done

What should I do here? This comes up when running ./package.sh on Linux Mint 20.3 Cinnamon.

I did a snap install go --classic to get over the "command not found" for go but the "control directory has bad permissions" error persists.

Not a big deal, the .deb installer works fine, but just figured I'd ask!

How can i run wireguird without entering a root password every time?

I installed by the steps as below:
git clone https://github.com/UnnoTed/wireguird
cd wireguird
./deps.sh
./package.sh
./install.sh

However, the content of installed /usr/local/bin/wireguird is as below:

#!/bin/sh
pkexec /opt/wireguird/wireguird

but I cannot find any wireguird executable file in the path.

After click the wireguird shortcut in Linux Mint, there is no response.

The app has been working for a month on Debian 12 than it suddenly stopped. After the authentication dialog the application just get closed with no further effect on connection. I did reinstall the deb-packet with no result.

Can't connect to any wireguard tunnels as I used to. It happened right after Ubuntu update. What should I do to recover?

Hi.
Please help what I'm doing wrong.
When I press activate button, there's "Exit status 1" error appears.

Using Ubuntu Budgie 22.04, the tray icon is not visible.

Please write a Makefile or change your README to point users to run go run main.go instead of making them running a bash script which doesn't even have a shebang in the first line.

When I follow the steps from the readme, I get the error as in the title of this issue. (Ubuntu 20.04)

I just found your site and the link here.

Have the current Linux Mint Debian Edition running.
Attached are the logs from my installation

Hi,

So this is not the official WG client, and is it possible to use FQDN instead of IP's for the allowed IP's block ?

please advice or share thoughts if this is possible by any method.

Hi,
I would like wireguird launch automatically and activate before qbittorrent starts , especially if the computer restarts after a power outage

If u try to input config with "-" in name of file. U cann't activate vpn getting error return 1. Same problem with official gui for android.

How to fix

It's simple u need to rename config file without "-" and it will work

For developers

It will be great if program automaticly rename file removing simbol "-" in filename

Hi!

Firstly, thank you so much for your work on this. It has been a lifesaver for me. I use Linux Mint 21.1 Vera, and it's so sad that the native Network Manager doesn't support WireGuard config file import. Moreover, when I enter it all manually it simply doesn't work, there was some trick I had to come up with where I didn't enter a preshared key and had to restart a pc and only then it would work.

From your README, I got an impression that the goal of this project is to make an exact copy of Windows's GUI. If that's not the case, if wanted to provide some feedback to make it even more convenient, in my personal opinion.

1. It's probably a bug, but when I left-click on the icon in the system tray, it doesn't do anything, so instead I have to right-click > show.
2. Make it so I can quickly choose a VPN tunnel by a menu after leftclicking a in a system tray (left click > VPN tunnels >> MyVpn1),
   so that the whole main window doesn't even have to pop up.
3. I mostly use VPN to reach websites that are blocked in my country, so it's roughly 15 minutes a day. But then sometimes I forget to turn it off (yeah, there is a large green check mark, but sometimes i m still very inattentive), and I accidentally eat all my traffic (watching videos, downloading torrents), so maybe some option is settings to notify me that i m using VPN for more that an hour~.

I am not a developer, I understand number 3 is a picky one, and I don't know if 1 and 2 are easy to implement.

I just hope that my feedback might be useful, so once again, thank you for making something this, great work!

I have a Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS installed and tried to use wireguird. Unfortunately, my GUI is completely broken. I cant use it at all. Any known issues? Am I missing something?

Its works fine with root user and for non-root user it throws below error and it wont open the application.
2023-12-18T22:51:34.866261+05:30 DevOps wireguird.desktop[453060]: Error creating textual authentication agent: Error opening current controlling terminal for the process (`/dev/tty'): No such device or address
Thank you very much for all your help's!! :)

What's happening here? It just shows a blank window after you click the button of edit. Certainly I have selected a tunnel profile first then click the edit button.

I have three tunnels. Two are to the local LAN of remote offices, and one is to an EC2 instance on AWS. There are no overlaps in the remote LAN subnets, or the tunnel subnets. The AWS instance has a Allow IPs of 0.0.0.0/0 and becomes my internet gateway. The remote offices have Allow IPs set for the subnet scope of the remote LAN and only become a route for that remote LAN. All tunnels work as they should independently. However, if I have a tunnel active and I activate a different tunnel, the active one deactivates. In web form terms, they act like radio select bubbles, and not check boxes. Is there any way to get WireGUIrd to to let me have all three active at the same time?

Thank you.

• Tested the gui with the latest version of ZorinOS, which is based on Ubuntu
• as the *.sh jobs do require "Ubuntu" I have send the command manually via bash
• works like a charm
• i kindly ask the project owner to add ZorinOS to the supported and tested OS and adjust the *.sh jobs accordingly

Hi there,
Thanks for this nice piece of software!
After using wireguird for a year on Linux Mint without any problems, I switched to pure Debian 12 with GNOME.
I installed wireguird and it worked as expected for a day. Now the GUI doesn't appear(expect popup for new version, even if already installed).
After uninstalling and reinstalling, no difference.
Not even when I start it with sudo. See attached log.
Last thing I did was check "MultipleTunnels" and maybe "StartOnTray".
I don't know how to undo this. /opt/wireguird/wireguird.settings seems to be empty (0 bytes).
Any advice?
Thanks,
Sebastian

Hi man!
Sorry my english a little bit broken. I haven't talk for ages on this language.
So I tried to compile your application but it didn't finished and it throw me this error massege.

../../go/pkg/mod/github.com/gotk3/[email protected]/gtk/accel.go:261:5: val.accel_flags undefined (type _Ctype_struct__GtkAccelKey has no field or method accel_flags) ../../go/pkg/mod/github.com/gotk3/[email protected]/gtk/accel.go:270:22: obj.accel_flags undefined (type *_Ctype_struct__GtkAccelKey has no field or method accel_flags)
I'm currently using Pop OS 20.10 (basically a ubuntu 20.10)

Hi there,

Pop OS 22.04 with Wireguird, 1.0.0. Standard Pop desktop, when editing a profile, the public key section right at the top displays the public key of the remote peer instead of the local public key. Creating a profile manually shows the local public key correctly on the main screen of the GUI, but editing it still does the same thing.

The same profile works as expected with the Windows Wireguard GUI. Couldn't see any other mention of this, so might be unique to me. Any ideas? Let me know if any more detail is needed.

Hello,

problem in compilation because go-appindicator is now v1.0.1

go.sum:
github.com/dawidd6/go-appindicator v1.0.1 h1:Jds+9T6dd2SpZ4krJ6SaGdwlKzGTjuU9AypHWhTOXCY=
github.com/dawidd6/go-appindicator v1.0.1/go.mod h1:hOqBUkquzU53HlXUFjFXHAkzdyD45TmTZCQb3FqtEWg=

I would really like to use it instead Qomui where there is no more update since september 2019.

No update coming on wireguird ?

Thank you in advance

Great Software, simple, work, it's would be nice of it's be available on FlatHub for keeping it on date and maybe, providing more interest to this project !

Thanks,
Eric.

Install successfull, GUI starts. But "add tunnel" not possible, no reaction. No directory "/etc/wireguard".
Console wireguard works.
