From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.2) Gecko/20040308 Description of problem: I've upgraded my FC1 installation to FC2 test 3. Now as I run system-config-network and try to save the changes (say I add a entry the hosts file) a warning dialog pops up with the following text in it: Warning system-config-network: Error saving configuration! [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '//etc/sysconfig/ network-scripts/ifcfg-lo.rpmsave' Though the warning indicates that the configuration wasn't saved it turns out that it is indeed saved! The file '/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-lo.rpmsave' is present and is a broken symbolic link like this: ifcfg-lo.rpmsave -> ../networking/ifcfg-lo I guess this file was left by the upgrade process so maybe this is not really a system-config-network problem, but the fact that system-config-network says an error occured when there was none made me post this bugreport. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): system-config-network-tui-1.3.16-1 system-config-network-1.3.16-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create an invalid symlink in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts 2. Run system-config-network and change something - for example add a new entry to hosts file 3. Try to save the change Actual Results: A warning box pops up saying that it failed to save the configuration, but the configuration is saved. Expected Results: Should not complain that it failed to save the configuration. Additional info:
