Description of problem: acroread will not start without the nscd service running. It gives this error: (acroread:1496): GLib-WARNING **: getpwuid_r(): failed due to unknown user id (5037) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): acroread-9.4.2-3.el6_0.i686 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Make sure nscd is stopped (service nscd stop) 2. Run acroread (/usr/bin/acroread) Actual results: (acroread:1978): GLib-WARNING **: getpwuid_r(): failed due to unknown user id (5037) Expected results: acroread should start Additional info: To run sssd for LDAP authentication, it is recommended to not run nscd as they conflict. I was able to verify that starting nscd does resolve the problem starting acroread.
Never mind. Installing sssd-client.i686 fixed the issue. Found the solution here: https://fedorahosted.org/sssd/ticket/190
