|
Hi,
I have a problem with wicd. It doesn't set up my network connection as it used to do, and when I'm executing wicd-client, I got these errors :
| Code: | (process:22509): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
Using the fallback 'C' locale.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/wicd/wicd-client.py", line 50, in <module>
import wicd.gui as gui

dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.wicd.daemon was not provided by any .service files |
According to the error message, I guess one file is missing, but I don't know how to set it back. Maybe there is a way to reinstall completely (including configuration files)?
I was working fine until today. I hadn't enough hard drive space for gentoo, so I removed kubuntu (it was the partition before, so gentoo was moved 10Go left). When I rebooted, wicd didn't work any more.
I have a latop, so I don't want static connections.
Thanks for your time.[/code]

Is Dbus is started?
Did you try the usual revdep-rebuild?

Dbus is started, and revdep-rebuild didn't fix anything.
Is it possible to reinstall completly wicd, including all config files ? |

Does it work now?
Python may be the problen - did you upgrade it?
The script "python-updater" should have been run then - but you can run it manually...
To cleanly uninstall/install wicd:
-stop it
-uninstall it
-remove the directory /etc/wicd
-install it again
-start it...
I read this because I have issues using wicd-1.6.0_beta1.
It does not connect. I currently only ever use a wired connection and with the beta-version I don't get an IP via dhcp.
Downgraded to =net-misc/wicd-1.5.9-r1 and all is working fine as before.
If someone should know something about this, please comment.

| I made a little script, and built back the whole system (about seven hours of compilation), and it works. If it fails again, I will try your solution. |

The thread is marked as solved and check for running dbus, revdep-rebuild, python-updater and cleanly un/reinstalling wicd where suggested.
Have you tried all this?
What exactly is _your_ problem.
"Similar" is too vague.
