Bug#712093: marionnet: bus address error on start and 3 popups

2013-06-14 Thread Pierre M. 
Package: marionnet
Version: 0.90.6+bzr407-1
Followup-For: Bug #712093

Hello,

thanks for being so responsive.

I hadn't done anything as root. So no the daemon was not spawned as root.

Now I keyed marionnet-daemon in a root console. I got the welcome to marionnet
stanza with the  above and under. It seems the daemon is happy to be
spawned by root in a root console. No error message from the daemon this time.

Unfortunately the regular user under X could still not launch marionnet without
warning popups. And the terminal window shows :

===

** (marionnet:8775): WARNING **: Error retrieving accessibility bus address:
org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.a11y.Bus was not
provided by any .service files

After closing the popups and the splash screen I initiated a project. That
seemed to work.
Then I wanted to add a host and it didn't work :
I right-clicked on "Machine" and selected "add".
The terminal window got :
In callback for signal activate, uncaught exception: Failure("File
\"gui/gui_bricks.ml\", line 431, characters 15-29")
Raised at file "pervasives.ml", line 22, characters 22-33

Called from file "machine.ml", line 80, characters 6-87
Called from file "gui/menu_factory.ml", line 141, characters 18-29

I can't tell if this is related to the previous messages and popups. May be it
should have been reported as another bug report, may be solving the first
solves all ?

Anyway. BTW I'd like to give more personal feedback :

If this software is somewhat "multipart" (gui, daemon, bus, lib, whatever) I'd
like the gui to give user friendly messages when starting. Like : "marionnet
could not connect to its 'daemon' server. Have you started it ? To start it do
this that..."
Even better the gui could launch the daemon without bothering the user.

I'd like to use (well... try) marionnet without requiring "to call" root to do
things. I've just tried that I can do kvm -cdrom DSL/dsl-4.4.10.iso -boot d -m
32m in a regular user terminal and quickly get a VM running with a working NAT
connection. No need for root to do this. Of course I don't know marionnet and
it may be another story. (btw 32m means 32 VM fit in 1G ? this is cool)

Final piece of personal opinion: I like softs like aptitude and Wireshark that
either proactively warn you friendly that not being root limits the features or
give you the possibility to 'su root' to get the full features.
I hope this is constructive feedback. Wasn't intended to be rude.

Have a nice week end

Pierre M.

Hi,

Did you run the daemon as root? The daemon needs to run privileged, and allows
users to create VMs and virtual switches.

If it didn't start as root, could you please paste the full output?

Thanks,

Hello,

thank you for appreciating my feedback.
I did dpkg-query --listfiles marionnet
to locate /usr/sbin/marionnet-daemon

then in a terminal I keyed /usr/sbin/marionnet-daemon
The result :
===
 Welcome to marionnet
(snip)

Fatal error: exception Pervasives.Exit

It seems I have an issue with marionnet-daemon too.
Hope this helps, happy Debianing

Hi Pierre,

Thanks for your feedback. The marionnet package is still quite
experimental, and there are some missing bits. However, what you
describe should not happen.

You need to start (manually) marionnet-daemon before starting marionnet.
Could you try, and tell me if it fixes your problem?

Lucas

Bug#712093: marionnet: bus address error on start and 3 popups

2013-06-12 Thread Pierre M. 
Package: marionnet
Version: 0.90.6+bzr407-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I saw marionet coming into testing a few days ago and I wanted to give it a
try.
After installation (with aptitude) I keyed "marionnet" in a terminal.
A marionnet main window appeared and child pop ups with it.
In the terminal I see :
** (marionnet:710): WARNING **: Error retrieving accessibility bus address:
org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.a11y.Bus was not
provided by any .service files

I don't understand this warning.
One popup says "missing dependancy" (in French) about filesystems.
Another syays "no connection to daemon" (Unix.Unix_error(20, "connect", ""));
The third says "missing dependancy" about "a default UML kernel for virtual
computers".

Moreover it is a pain to close the splash screen and the 3 popups because some
(unadvertised) order seems required.

So first try, not so good. But according to the screencasts it seems I'm only
facing some minor installation or configuration issue.

I hope this report is usefull enough.
Have fun packaging for Debian
