WPA and WPA2 Enterprise Connection Issue in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS version

Recently I tried to connect to my Wi Fi connection in the office after installing 14.04 LTS. Surprisingly it was not connecting even though my settings were all correct. So I ran into some bug tracks and found out why it is

When WPA & WPA2 PEAP are not using the Certificates it is not working correctly in 14.04.

There is a line in the Wi Fi configuration files that are located in the folder

/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections
First of all list out all the connections you have and vim or gedit the one you need to use. If it is a fresh install you won't have vim installed so use gedit

cd /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections 
ls 
sudo gedit ConnectionName
Afterwards remove the line containing

system-ca-cert=true



















Save the file

Reconnect to the Wi Fi connection and now it should work.
