Description Andrew Farris 2004-03-11 05:06:46 UTC
Description of problem:
While system-config-samba displays the "Samba Users" dialog, clicking 
the "Edit Users" results in the Traceback below without opening the 
expected dialog.
----------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/system-config-samba/sambaUserWin.py", line 144, in 
onEditUserButtonClicked
    user_dict = self.samba_user_data.getUserDict()
  File "/usr/share/system-config-samba/sambaUserData.py", line 86, in 
getUserDict
    if tmp_line[0] != '#':
IndexError: string index out of range
----------------

The "Delete User" button displays this similar Traceback, but appears 
to correctly remove the user from the dialog listbox.
----------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/system-config-samba/sambaUserWin.py", line 164, in 
onDeleteUserButtonClicked
    self.samba_user_data.deleteUser(name, line)
  File "/usr/share/system-config-samba/sambaUserData.py", line 178, 
in deleteUser
    user_dict = self.getUserDict()
  File "/usr/share/system-config-samba/sambaUserData.py", line 86, in

Comment 1 Brent Fox 2004-03-11 15:26:47 UTC
This bug was caused due to blank lines in the smbusers file which was
not expected.  Should be fixed in system-config-samba-1.2.6-1 in
Rawhide.  Thanks for your report.
