The error message appears to be somewhat cut off; can you grab the full
message from [nm-vpn-connection.c:823] plugin_need_secrets_cb() for us?
That will have more information about where the problem may lie.

It should be something like:

(355653c0-34d3-4777-ad25-f9a498b7ef8e/VPNconnection) plugin NeedSecrets
request 1 failed: <message> <message2>
