This worked for me on both my iPad2 and iPhone4s. Thanks for the tip!
"VPN configuration error occured"
Didn't work i got "A Configuration Error Occurred" when I turn VPN on:(
I have just re-jailbroke so I will let you know if this helps me. (16gb white AT&T 5.0.1 4s)
how ever, the VPN on either freezes for a moment and then goes back to off and lets me continue using my phone, OR restarts / reboots.
the jailbreak works great to install the Absinthe icon, but the "error establishing a database connection" is all I get from the Absinthe icon.
VPN to ON didn't work for me.
not turning on! "A configuration error occured"
After I ran and installed the Absinthe app twice, I opened the installed icon. There is no longer text that reads and error with connection, but instead no text at all, just a white screen.
HOWEVER, I then swiped on VPN, phone restarted, and to my serious surprise, HIYA CYDIA I MISSED YOU! :)
thank you guys! I called out of work this morning cause I am sick as heck, I thought Skyrim was the highlight of my day, you made this amazing
VPN Connection - it says a configuration error occured

VPN activation is impossible for me :'(
Does not working for me. VPN activation is impossible :'(
Says... Configuration error
I get an error message that says "it has been produced a configuration error"
nope won't work for me
I cannot even ON it.... A configuration error occurred...
but when u put VPN connection on it will ask you for configuration, and which configuration should be used?
Got the error. When I try the fix I get;
VPN Connection:
A configuration error occurred
This is with wifi on/off.
I cannot get the jailbreak to work.
VPN won't switch on.
VPN connection: A configuration error occured.
didnt work said " A congifration error occurred "
it was mentionned that wthe windows version is being uploaded, when will it be online?
couln't kick VNP ON
a configuration error has ocurred what i can do?
Got the database error listed above, and tried to enable VPN, but it gave me a "configuration error" message, and wouldn't join it. For what it's worth, I had a university security certificate/profile installed, so I'm not sure if that was causing a conflict. Removed the profile leaving only the jailbreak VPN setting pointing at localhost, but still got the error.
Restoring IOS 5.0.1 and starting from scratch. Will keep you posted.
P.S. iPad 2 for the record
didnt work
nope dosent work..
I tried the VPN fix, it says a configuration error occoured
Didn't fix it for me. Still just a white screen.
its not working for me...
tryed it on and ipad 2 and an 4s..
startet the jailbreak from thery beginning on my ipad/mac for 3 times now.. its not working....
Hi.
When I did this i got a message tab it was a configuration problem.
What do i do?
Finally got it to work. Had to delete an existing vpn and just leave the jailbreak vpn. Then delete the absinthe app off of the iPad. Ran it again from my computer to install it and then turn on the vpn (got an error) but then I clicked on the absinthe app on the iPad and voila cydia appears. Took me a while to get it, but no more white screen now.
my iPhone reboot new after this
can't turn on VPN... Any solutions?
excellent thank you
I have been following your instructions, but cannot jailbreak. After "Error establishing a database connection" message I went to Network and tried to avtivate VPN. There is an error when trying to configure VPN connection. Message: VPN Connection "A configuration error occured".
My Ipad is wifi only 64 gb. Version OS 5.01(9A405).
Can you help me?
Fix isn't working... still getting database error. Have rebooted multiple times. Suggestions?
This worked for me also. when you I went into the vpn you have to delete or turn of the custom jailbreak and then turn on vpn. then you'll get the error message. Hit ok and the ipad 2 will restart an cydia will be on the homescreen
This method is working...
All are okey without problems on iPad 2.
Thanks for your hard work from all jailbreakers of Russia!
it still is not working on my 4s :(
Its not working....maybe the problem in server itself......
worked like a charm
if I try the command-version the program stops during creating the backup... and displays:
3559 files backed up
Adding custom.apple.ipsec.plist to backup
Restoring...
recv: bad file descriptor
FATAL(__LINE__): Assertion failed (1266): got == sizeof(size) 1266
C:\cinject_0.4.3>
