I try to use VPN on Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS 32 bit but it fails and gives the message that the VPN service failed to start. How can I resolve this issue?

Edit: The connection type is PPTP and I use the credentials provided on VPNbook

P.S: I try to connect to a preconfigured VPN that used to work fine through the GUI network manager.

After I read something about openconnect possibly being related to this kind of issue, I launched Synaptic Package Manager and installed the following packages related to openconnect which resolved the problem:

libopenconnect-dev (3.15-0ubuntu2)
network-manager-openconnect (0.9.4.0-0ubuntu1)
network-manager-openconnect-gnome (0.9.4.0-0ubuntu1)
