Description Tom London 2010-08-18 13:30:31 UTC

Description of problem:
Booting up and logging in, I get no network, and 'service' reports NetworkManager is dead:

[root@tlondon ~]# service NetworkManager status
NetworkManager is stopped
[root@tlondon ~]#

Starting it manually does not appear to help:

[root@tlondon ~]# service NetworkManager start
Setting network parameters...                              [  OK  ]
Starting NetworkManager daemon:                            [  OK  ]
[root@tlondon ~]# service NetworkManager status
NetworkManager dead but pid file exists
[root@tlondon ~]# 

See the following in /var/log/messages:

Comment 1 Tom London 2010-08-18 14:07:33 UTC

After reinstalling 0.8.1-4 along with debuginfo package, I can't reproduce the crash, but NM still fails to run.

I also see this in /var/log/messages:

Aug 18 06:55:36 tlondon init[1]: D-Bus activation failed for NetworkManager-by-dbus.service: Invalid argument
Aug 18 06:55:36 tlondon kernel: init[1]: D-Bus activation failed for NetworkManager-by-dbus.service: Invalid argument

Don't see those messages with 0.8.1-1.

Comment 2 Tom London 2010-08-18 14:08:09 UTC

BTW, I also updated polkit to 0.97, results the same....

Comment 3 Michael Ekstrand 2011-05-30 15:47:33 UTC

I also experience this bug (F15, just updated today), and it occurs when parsing other network configuration files as well, not just the VPN config.  Stack trace is similar:

Comment 4 Pavel Šimerda (pavlix) 2012-03-20 21:26:47 UTC

This “rawhide” bug looks pretty old. I believe NM is up and running in updated versions of rawhide, f17, f16 and f15. Closing.
