a) you can't mark bug #426791 as duplicate of this bug and vice versa. b) this is a bug, it has been there in f8 and is still present in f9. It would help if you would take 5min time and try or *even* use it yourself. ~% bacula-tray-monitor 07-Oct 12:50 tray-monitor: ERROR TERMINATION at parse_conf.c:829 Config error: Cannot open config file "./tray-monitor.conf": No such file or directory ~% cd /etc/bacula /etc/bacula% bacula-tray-monitor Connecting to Director xxxx.xxxx.ee:9101 Opened connection with Director daemon.

Juha: Actually I think you are right that this is not a dup of bug 426791. Probably the problem is that the tray monitor application is in /usr/sbin and the desktop file does not use a fully qualified path. Can you please check if this solves your problem: In /usr/share/applications/fedora-bacula-traymonitor.desktop change Exec=bacula-tray-monitor -c /etc/bacula/tray-monitor.conf to: Exec=/usr/sbin/bacula-tray-monitor -c /etc/bacula/tray-monitor.conf Maybe the line is different in newer Fedoras, I just fixed this for EL4. If the fix above works for you I will take care of pushing it to all branches (EL5+F9/F10+devel). Thanks for noticing.
Yes, it helps for f9 at least. And i do have sbin in my paths. that bug 426791 still exists in f9 and probably in f10,rawhide too.
The consolehelper behaviour has been fixed in recent releases.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 9. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '9'. 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 prior to Fedora 9's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 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 please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. 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. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 9 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-07-10. Fedora 9 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. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
(In reply to comment #6) > The consolehelper behaviour has been fixed in recent releases. Yeah right it is not.

Andreas ping. You own this package this has been open since December 2007, time to make a simple fix? Fedora is shipping GUI menu entries that don't work!
FYI, I'm working on a new build for rawhide, and will backport the desktop files.

(In reply to comment #10) > *** Bug 505727 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Jon bug 505727 is not an exact duplicate of this bug. It contains three issues. The first might be fixed with the absolute path in the desktop file but i don't think so because /usr/bin/gnome-console is linked to consolehelper and not /isr/sbin/bgnome-console The other two are still there. Just check the contents of /etc/security/console.apps/wxconsole and /etc/security/console.apps/bat. These files are not consolehelper files they are desktop files Should i reopen it or continue in this one?

This is a simple bug and a simple fix. The menu command starts with only use permissions but the configuration files in /etc/bacula are restricted. Temporary fix is to make the .conf files read and write to all. Tony
btw, am i only one who now sees rectangular boxes in place of every character where the messages are drawn? It looks like messages would have been written in chinese and software failed to find proper font for it. Perhaps the protocol changed somehow?
