output from ifconfig eth0 and dmesg | grep eth0
Looks like the attachment didn't get attached to the original bug report.
Maybe NetworkManager is not enabled or running. Check: $ systemctl is-enabled NetworkManager.service && echo "yes" $ systemctl is-active NetworkManager.service and possibly enable, run it with: # systemctl enable NetworkManager.service && echo "yes" # systemctl start NetworkManager.service Also upgrade the system and NetworkManager packages. Please attach /var/log/messages if the problem persist. Well I can't conveniently do that right now. Because of that and so many other problems I reverted to F14. I can't verify that NetworkManager was or was not running, but normally I don't run NetworkManager because that machine runs with a fixed IP address so NetworkManager doesn't bring anything to the party.

It seems that I have the same problem here. The internet connection is OK, but "Software update" says "Getting information" shortly and then opens a box with "No updates are available - No network connection was detected."
I just upgraded from F14 to F15 and there are no updates available through "yum update" at this time, so the problem persists.
Output from running the following commands:
$ systemctl is-enabled NetworkManager.service && echo "yes"
yes
$ systemctl is-active NetworkManager.service
active
$ systemctl status NetworkManager.service
NetworkManager.service - Network Manager
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/NetworkManager.service)
Active: active (running) since Thu, 22 Dec 2011 22:48:59 +0100; 2h 10min ago
Main PID: 859 (NetworkManager)
CGroup: name=systemd:/system/NetworkManager.service
└ 859 /usr/sbin/NetworkManager --no-daemon
Please find the file /var/log/messages attached.
I gave up on F15 and have since installed F16 dual boot with F14. The problem doesn't appear to happen now that I'm on F16. Still F15 here, but the problem has gone away. In Compiz, I clicked "Software Update" in the Applications->System Tools menu, then a box opens with "Getting information" and then "There are 70 updates available" appears.
$ systemctl is-enabled NetworkManager.service && echo "yes"
yes
$ systemctl is-active NetworkManager.service
active
$ systemctl status NetworkManager.service
NetworkManager.service - Network Manager
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/NetworkManager.service)
Active: active (running) since Fri, 06 Jan 2012 22:35:05 +0100; 2 days ago
Main PID: 898 (NetworkManager)
CGroup: name=systemd:/system/NetworkManager.service
└ 898 /usr/sbin/NetworkManager --no-daemon
Actually, since then a lot of things have changed.
Situation: ('b' is my computer)
Internet <--> a <--> b
Before: 'a' ran F16 and 'b' ran F15.
After: 'a' now runs F15, 'b' still runs F15.
So the problem seems to be solved now.
Closing based on comments #5 and #6. |
Description of problem:I have a workstation that is also a router between DSL and the LAN here. A second workstation that is on the LAN was just upgraded to F15. After the upgrade: firefox always comes up with the work offline box checked but after I uncheck the box it works OK trying to do Applications->System tools->Software update results in "Gathering information" and then after a while it opens a box saying "No updates are available No network connection was detected." However running yum update from a terminal works OK. It didn't do this when the workstation was on F14. It doesn't seem to matter if the workstation acting as a router is running F14 or F15. The workstation with the problem is dual boot and under Windows XP seems to work OK. I've attached the output from ifconfig on the eth0 interface and from dmesg | grep eth0 on the affected workstation. The LAN consists of a Linksys 8 port 10/100 workgroup switch.
