I can not see this crash in

Comment 3 Jóhann B. Guðmundsson 2009-10-20 16:54:24 UTC
For the record I did with system-config-samba-1.2.83-1.fc12.noarch on an i686 and abrt deemed mine as an duplicate and I'm not noticing any new builds in of system-config-samba-1.2.83-1 in koji...

Comment 4 Flóki Pálsson 2009-10-28 20:33:57 UTC
I see this to when adding a new samba user.
When starting s-c-s from menu ans normal user.
with 
system-config-samba-1.2.83-1.fc12.noarch
kernel-2.6.31.5-96.fc12.x86_64
selinux-policy-3.6.32-27.fc12.noarch

there is also sealert se bug 529576 

adding user with s-c-s as root works
but 
[root@flokipal ~]# system-config-samba
account_policy_get: tdb_fetch_uint32 failed for field 1 (min password length), returning 0
account_policy_get: tdb_fetch_uint32 failed for field 2 (password history), returning 0

Comment 6 Panagiotis Kalogiratos 2009-10-31 02:30:59 UTC
Indeed this happens when you try to add a user with a normal user and get elevation. Running it as root/su/sudo works properly.

Comment 7 Gian Paolo Mureddu 2009-12-13 23:44:37 UTC
So this problem seems to be linked to PK rather than system-config-samba itself, woudln't it?

Comment 8 Nils Philippsen 2009-12-14 09:40:19 UTC
(In reply to comment #6)

Do you see this error every time you run s-c-services? Do you have SELinux enabled and if yes, does it make a difference if it is set to enforcing or permissive?

I'm not sure about others, but I do not see this happening with any other s-c- command, only Samba, when run as a regular user. I do have SELinux on its default config for F12, which is enforcing.

Comment 10 Flóki Pálsson 2009-12-14 20:51:11 UTC
(In reply to comment #8)
The situation has changed,  now sealert when starting s-c-s ( Bug 547472)
>Do you see this error every time you run s-c-services?
No. only for s-c-samba.
( s-c-* is ok except s-c-h ( but not  crash))

for s-c-samba
"abrt detected a crash"  was only when adding new samba user.
I did not check if there was difference between

I did not check if there was difference between enforcing or permissive.

Repeatable every time, trying to open from System -> Administration -> Samba as standard user.

Does not crash when run as root, from command line. Shows the config as expected.

How to reproduce
-----
1. Try to open system-config-samba as standard user
2. Enter authentication details
3. Get this crash message

Comment 13 Dagan McGregor 2009-12-22 10:29:57 UTC
Please note: Because of the original Backtrace attached to this bugs, ALL USERS who are still experiencing bugs with system-config-samba crashing with the "DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply." error are being directed here, added to the CC list, and no further backtraces are being logged in Bugzilla.

This bug is NOT fixed. The problem with system-config-samba remains.

Users cannot open system-config-samba as a regular user. This is regardless of adding a user or not. I cannot even get the application to open, let alone open long enough to try adding or changing anything.

Someone needs to reassign this bug, because I would expect a very large number of ABRT reports are going into a blackhole due to this issue already being closed, but NOT fixed for users.

Unfortunately, many issues cause that specific dbus exception.

I've meanwhile had the chance to see system-config-samba failing and it seemed to be a SELinux policy issue, which seems to have been fixed in selinux-policy-targeted-3.6.32-59.fc12 which is available from updates-testing. If you have SELinux active (enforcing or permissive), please update to at least this version. I did it this way:

yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update selinux-policy-\* policycoreutils\*

Comment 15 Dagan McGregor 2009-12-22 23:11:24 UTC
I had updated selinux-policy packages from testing after earlier reading on related bugs, but didn't try policycoreutils, so will update them both again and see how that goes.

Thanks for the update.

Comment 16 Rodolfo Paiz 2010-01-14 05:52:55 UTC
system-config-samba crashed on me multiple times (every single time, in fact) while attempting to add myself (a non-root user) as a Samba user to create one share. Attempting to add a Samba user would kill it immediately.

Tried a ton of things to get it to open up "nicely", i.e. without invoking it as root, to see if I could figure it out. No such luck. Invoked system-config-samba from a shell as root, and voilà!... instant functionality. Was logged in through Samba in 10 seconds.

I've been away from Linux for a few years, but at least I knew how to test stuff and try different things and to check here. If I hadn't found this bug, or if I were a newbie user, I'd be SOL in a big way.

Gotta fix this one, whatever the cause is. Not having Samba functional is a real issue. :-)

Comment 17 Reggie Pearce 2010-02-07 17:16:13 UTC
I am running a fairly new installed of FC 12. I disabled SELinux and still have this issue.  
I am going to try:
yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update selinux-policy-\* policycoreutils\*

Just for the heck of it.

Comment 18 Reggie Pearce 2010-02-07 18:13:53 UTC
So I ran: 

yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update selinux-policy-\* policycoreutils\*

Still have the same problem using Samba Server Configuration tool from the System | Administration menu item in the GUI.

Tested using 1.2.85 (from koji)  when I try and add a user the program freezes up. No ABRT popup and I can't close the windows, have to kill the app.

Not sure how to get a backtrace for you.

This is already discussed in bug 533743 and I already provided the backtrace
