After upgrading to Ubuntu 14.04 I can't connect to any new WPA2 wifi access points. Existing ones work.
Here is a pastebin of the syslog output: http://pastebin.com/QVgmRmXp
Here is an error that sometimes shows in a pop-up:
(nm-applet:28277): nm-applet-WARNING **: Connection activation failed: (1) Creating object for path '/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/ActiveConnection/34' failed in libnm-glib.
There is a workaround, but it ain't pretty. When failing to connect, a file will be created here: /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/<name of network>
If I edit that file and add a password psk=password
to the [802-11-wireless-security]
section, then I can connect.

ps ax | grep wpa
to check if/sbin/wpa_supplicant
is running.
