From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.7 [en] (Win95; I) The Linuxconf web interface don't works if you don't have the gd library instaled IMHO, this is a mistake, ou at least the package linuxconf may depend on gd on install, so, everybody will install gd to run linuxconf Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Isntall a RedHat Linux 7.0 box without gd, with linuxconf 2. Configure in linuxconf to allow web access 3. Configure in ntsysv to start linuxconf web interface, restart xinetd, etc Actual Results: 1. Try http://127.0.0.1:98/, it will show you the Linuxconf webpage, but the images brokes, if you try to click in "Start", don't work anymore, reload the page also don't work anymore 2. In /var/log/messages you will see: Mar 22 12:21:16 pavan xinetd[1007]: warning: can't get client address: Invalid argument Mar 22 12:21:16 pavan xinetd[1007]: file descriptor of service linuxconf has been closed 3. Run linuxconf --http --debug 4. Connect on http://127.0.0.1:8000/ It will show the startpage, and crash on showing the logo image: *** ERROR *** libgd.so not found -- install the "gd" package. Expected Results: Show linuxconf web interface :-) I don't know if it generate all images on-the-fly, but I think that it may store all images pre-generated on disk, and just show them, not needing additional libraries to generate the images
This will be fixed in 1.24r2-10 in Raw Hide. Thanks!
