Description Ray Todd Stevens 2008-02-27 04:32:29 UTC
Description of problem:

When I try and run system config for the services I get the message 

The exec() call failed.

I am logged in as root.   But if I try and run system-config-services manually I
get permission error.   I think this is because all of the files in
/usr/share/system-config-services are flagged rw and not rwx




Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

system-config-services.0.99.0-1.fc9.noarch

How reproducible:

100% on one machine

Comment 1 Ray Todd Stevens 2008-02-27 04:34:19 UTC
I ran into this one trying to check and see if 404881 was fixed.

Comment 2 Nils Philippsen 2008-02-27 11:23:59 UTC
I've made the Python file in question executable, system-config-services-0.99.1
is building right now with this change.

I downloaded from koji and I get:
system-config-services

Comment 5 Nils Philippsen 2008-02-27 17:12:14 UTC
system-config-services-0.99.2 is building right now which should import the
missing module.

Comment 6 Horst H. von Brand 2008-02-28 19:41:22 UTC
system-config-services-0.99.2-1.fc9.noarch:

# system-config-services 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/sbin/system-config-services", line 27, in <module>
    import gamin
ImportError: No module named gamin

Comment 7 Nils Philippsen 2008-02-29 09:24:01 UTC
Thanks for spotting this. I've added the gamin-python requirement to the spec
file, upcoming versions should have it.In the meantime, you could just install
it manually ;-).
