Description customercare 2016-11-02 14:38:18 UTC
Description of problem:

After upgrading from F23 to F24, usb connected devices like sticks or mobile phones get detected, but not auto mounted anymore.

"gvfs-mount -o -i" output is at the end.

so gvfs detects the drives, but it's not mounted.

same drives or phones connected to a laptop, work as expected.
They worked with F23. 


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

gvfs-1.28.3-1.fc24.x86_64
gvfs-afc-1.28.3-1.fc24.x86_64
gvfs-archive-1.28.3-1.fc24.x86_64
gvfs-gphoto2-1.28.3-1.fc24.x86_64
gvfs-mtp-1.28.3-1.fc24.x86_64
gvfs-goa-1.28.3-1.fc24.x86_64
gvfs-smb-1.28.3-1.fc24.x86_64
gvfs-client-1.28.3-1.fc24.x86_64
gvfs-fuse-1.28.3-1.fc24.x86_64
gvfs-afp-1.28.3-1.fc24.x86_64

Actual results:

no automount

Expected results:

automount as in f23

Comment 1 customercare 2016-11-02 14:48:57 UTC
FIX FOUND: 

As Root 

dnf reinstall dbus-x11
killall nautilus

As User:

nautilus --force-desktop

Comment 2 customercare 2016-11-02 14:53:32 UTC
it only works, if nautilus gets started from gnome-terminal.
If invoked via ALT+F2, it's not working.

maybe a clean system start is needed, we will see.

Comment 3 Ondrej Holy 2016-11-02 16:05:35 UTC
Hmm, gnome-shell is responsible for automounting. Does the following return "true"?
gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.media-handling automount

Comment 4 customercare 2016-11-02 17:05:48 UTC
[marius@eve ~]$ gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.media-handling automount
true

Comment 5 customercare 2016-11-02 17:12:20 UTC
Info: 

a reboot got a :

gnome-shell crash back into the loginscreen
the login afterwards gave me nautilus without desktop icons
the necessary "killall nautilus; nautilus --force-desktop &"
gave me a WORKING automount :D

The question now is: Why did d-bus x11 had a problem in the first place?

Comment 6 customercare 2016-11-03 09:53:24 UTC
one reboot later, without a crash, the system is back to none-functional again.

it looks like, the filemanager must be started from a bash session to be able to access the dbus. So, some rights seem not ot match here.

I suggest to transfer the ticket to the dbus guys.

Comment 7 Ondrej Holy 2016-11-03 10:19:43 UTC
Yea, there is obviously something wrong with dbus... It seems to me that gdm somehow wrongly spawns the desktop session as per your info... Changing component to gdm (rather then dbus).

Comment 8 Fedora End Of Life 2017-07-25 23:44:06 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 24 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 2 (two) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 24. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '24'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version'
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not
able to fix it before Fedora 24 is end of life. If you would still like
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 9 Fedora End Of Life 2017-08-08 19:06:19 UTC
Fedora 24 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-08-08. Fedora 24 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
