[Bug 380061] Re: Mythbuntu Control Centre crash on diskless auto-login

[walterdf00]

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: mythbuntu-control-centre
  
  I have a mythbuntu backend that serves a mythbuntu frontend via PXE.  I opened MCC on the backend (via the shell so that I could see the debug info), went to the Diskless Server tab, and opened the MCC for the client.  In the client MCC I enabled Automatic Login and clicked Apply and Apply on the next window.  The progress bar stops at about 3/4 of the way, in the "Configure Automatic Login...".  Here is what I ran:
  walt at barad-dur:~$ MCC_DEBUG="true"
  walt at barad-dur:~$ sudo -E /usr/share/mythbuntu-control-centre/bin/mythbuntu-control-centre
  
  Here is the problem (.dmrc did not exist in the client's image).
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/MythbuntuControlCentre/core.py", line 1363, in apply_pressed
      call_applicator(self,to_install,to_remove,to_reconfigure)
    File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/MythbuntuControlCentre/core.py", line 1350, in call_applicator
      apply.commit_changes()
    File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/MythbuntuControlCentre/changer.py", line 251, in commit_changes
      self.process_configuration()
    File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/MythbuntuControlCentre/changer.py", line 526, in process_configuration
      self.configure_autologin(autologin,autologin_user)
    File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/MythbuntuControlCentre/changer.py", line 644, in configure_autologin
      os.chown(home + '/.dmrc',uid,gid)
  OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/walt/.dmrc'
  
  When I Cntrl+C the command these lines are output:
  ^CTraceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/share/mythbuntu-control-centre/bin/mythbuntu-control-centre", line 47, in <module>
      script.run()
    File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/MythbuntuControlCentre/core.py", line 212, in run
      gtk.main()
  
  Once I created /home/walt/.dmrc in the diskless image (using the MCC
- diskless terminal) everything ran correctly.  This is my first bug
- report.  I hope to get involved with some testing once I get this up and
- running.  Thanks to the developers who keep this project moving!
