Created attachment 509899 [details] Float is required Description of problem: When i try to launch the Firewall application it gives me this: "Error a float is required" i also uploaded screenshot of the issue Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): system-config-firewall.noarch 0:1.2.29-3.fc15 How reproducible: Happened after the update of the system, before that the application worked correctly, also i've seen this error during update Non-fatal POSTIN scriptlet failure in rpm package glibc-2.14-3.x86_64 /usr/sbin/glibc_post_upgrade: While trying to execute /sbin/service child exited with exit code 1 warning: %post(glibc-2.14-3.x86_64) scriptlet failed, exit status 1 im not sure if it can be related to the problem but i had to post it. Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info: Its a fresh install of F15, first thing i did after the install was to run: yum update. I tried reinstalling "system-config-firewall" but the problem persisted Current kernel: 2.6.38.8-32.fc15.x86_64 CPU: Core i5 M430 @ 2.27Ghz RAM: 4GB DDR3 1066 @ CL8 SSD: Mushkin Callisto Deluxe 60GB HDD: Hitachi 500GB Manufacturer: HP Model: DV6-2166ss
I see this too on my full updated F15 install. It worked sometime in the last week or so, so I think some recent update broke it. A workaround is to use system-config-firewall-tui
Thank you for the quick response, i'll try the workaround.
I've managed to open system-config-firewall by installing beesu and editing /usr/share/applications/system-config-firewall.desktop and replacing the path with: Exec=beesu /usr/bin/system-config-firewall works every time i start it, ill stick with that until a fix is released :)
