I'm having the same problem. It happens every time on both Fedora 9 and Centos 5. I am using Console Framework 1.1.1. Both installations use OpenJDK Client VM (build 1.6.0-b09, mixed mode). Both installations are vserver guests. The vserver host is Centos 5. It is i386 architecture. I am running the console on my amd64 laptop running Ubuntu 8.0.4 via X forwarding on ssh. If it would help the developers, I could probably arrange for remote access to my laptop for diagnostics and troubleshooting.
I should also mention I have tried grabbing the edges of the widget in the middle of the blank frame in case it could be resized. That did not help. I tried resizing and maximizing the dialog box and that did not help. I always have a nicely centered inverted "L" in the frame with a close button on the bottom right of the frame.
Hmmm . . . I was looking for a way to modify container and user password policies through Advanced Properties. I had a user for whom I wanted to not have the password expire. I looked at the advanced properties to see the expiration date. I then set the global permissions so passwords never expires and checked the Advanced Properties of the user again to see what the value was (assuming it would be 0). It was not there. So, I re-enabled password expiration in the global settings. I check the user's Advanced Properties again and there was still not attribute for password expiration. I closed the dialog, right clicked and select Manage Password Policy for user and, lo and behold, I have a usable password policy dialog! I've just tried setting Password Policies for subtrees and it is all working just fine. I do not know what changed. Other than my toggling the expired flag and I also had just removed the anonymous browse right. Argh! I'm trying to close the console so I can restart it and see if the changes persist. It is telling me I have unsaved changes. I cannot find them; there are not red dots on any of the tabs. I will exit anyway and see what happens. Bizarre! Now I'm back to the original problem - no usable password policy dialog for users or subtrees! Argh! I'm back in the wilderness. I've tried reproducing the steps above but I cannot return to having a usable dialog box. I do not know what was so unique about what just happened. Hope this helps - John

Created attachment 326687 [details] cvs commit log Reviewed by: nkinder (Thanks!) Fix Description: The culprit was flexible but evil GridBagLayout. Changing the layout in the dialog window to BorderLayout solved the problem. Now, the window comes up with the panels flush with the edges of the dialog window. Resizing the box too small results in h and v scroll bars. pwp dialog at startup - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=326684 pwp dialog made too small - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=326685 Platforms tested: RHEL5 Flag Day: no Doc impact: no
