I'm unable to reproduce this with the current rhn-applet - not sure if it has been fixed since the bug report, or if there was some other problem causing this issue. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.3) Gecko/20040803 Description of problem: Applet does not appear in the panel on a new install of RHEL 3AS U2. It does not start when launched from the menu. When I try to launch it from the terminal window, I get: $ rhn-applet-gui /home/millerte was not found, creating Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/rhn-applet-gui", line 47, in ? main() File "/usr/bin/rhn-applet-gui", line 43, in main applet = rhn_applet.rhnApplet() File "/usr/bin/../share/rhn/rhn_applet/rhn_applet.py", line 180, in __init__ self.consent = rhn_utils.get_user_config('Consent') File "/usr/bin/../share/rhn/rhn_applet/rhn_utils.py", line 95, in get_user_config user_config_obj.init() File "/usr/bin/../share/rhn/rhn_applet/rhn_utils.py", line 78, in init self.save() File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date_client/config.py", line 183, in save os.makedirs(os.path.dirname(self.fileName),0757) File "/usr/lib/python2.2/os.py", line 204, in makedirs mkdir(name, mode) OSError: [Errno 17] File exists: '/home/millerte' Since this was launch from a graphical login under the millerte account, /home/millerte clearly exists (as it admits at the end). Even the root account has this problem when launching the '-tui' version of this software. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.0.12-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install RHEL 3AS via kickstart from a RHN Satellite server 2. Try to start program under graphical or text login Additional info: $ rpm -qa | grep up2date up2date-gnome-4.2.33-1 up2date-4.2.33-1 $ rpm -q python python-2.2.3-5 $ rpm -q rhn-applet rhn-applet-2.0.12-1
