# NEVPNError.Code.configurationStale

An error code that indicates another process modfied the VPN configuration since the last time the app loaded the configuration.

```
case configurationStale
```

## Discussion

This error also occurs if the app tries to save the VPN configuration before loading it from the Network Extension preferences the first time after the app launches.
