Unkown error reported when starting program
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:10:32 EST
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031022 Firebird/0.7 Description of problem: I'm including usermode version since I think it might be relevant. When running redhat-config-httpd I get a window that says "Unknown error.". But if I run /usr/share/redhat-config-httpd/redhat-config-httpd there is no problem, the configuration wizard starts. This does not seem to be a problem with other redhat-config-* programs (tries redhat-config-network and redhat-config-mouse). Also it might be relevant that I'm using an Icelandic locale although I've tried to set LANG=C and it still returns the error. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): redhat-config-httpd-1.1.0-5 usermode-1.69-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run /usr/bin/redhat-config-mouse 2. Try running usr/share/redhat-config-httpd/redhat-config-httpd and it works. Additional info:
I can't reproduce this here. Please run which redhat-config-httpd strace -s128 -f -o redhat-config-httpd.strace.f redhat-config-httpd strace -s128 -o redhat-config-httpd.strace redhat-config-httpd and attach the output of "which" and the contents of the generated redhat-config-httpd.strace and redhat-config-httpd.strace.f files to this bug report? That may shed some light on what's going on.
Created attachment 95945 [details] As requested.
Created attachment 95946 [details] redhat-config-httpd.strace.f
[root@tommilap root]# which redhat-config-httpd /usr/bin/redhat-config-httpd
Steps to Reproduce is wrong, you should of course run redhat-config-httpd not redhat-config-mouse.
I'm not sure if this is a usermode bug so I moved the bug over there. lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 okt 31 10:18 /usr/bin/redhat-config-httpd -> consolehelper
The strace without -f shows that userhelper exited with exit code 255, which is an most likely an unexpected error. The strace with -f indicates that /etc/security/console.apps/redhat-config-httpd doesn't exist. Can you run 'rpm -V redhat-config-httpd' to check for a possibly-messed-up installation of the redhat-config-httpd package?
[root@tommilap root]# rpm -V redhat-config-httpd ....L... c /etc/pam.d/redhat-config-httpd ....L... c /etc/security/console.apps/redhat-config-httpd lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 okt 1 13:12 /etc/security/console.apps/redhat-config-httpd -> apacheconf lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 okt 1 13:29 /etc/pam.d/redhat-config-httpd -> apacheconf Found a .rpmnet for both files and replaced the old ones. redhat-config-httpd is now working. This was an upgrade from RH 9 so I guess that's what broke it.
Found a .rpmnew not .rpmnet.
This seems to be a upgrade problem and something that might not be a big issue. At least I'm just closing it with WONTFIX.
