[Bug 295172] Re: usb-creator does not work when $HOME is on NFS
This is fixed in 0.2.7 (released in Karmic). usb-creator is run as a regular users and tries to write its log to ~/.usbcreator.log. If it fails to do so, it writes to stdout. ** Changed in: usb-creator (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Released -- usb-creator does not work when $HOME is on NFS https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/295172 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 295172] Re: usb-creator does not work when $HOME is on NFS
I have the same problem. Another "workaround" is to make the file (.usb-creator.log) manually, then make it writeable for all... so: needs to be fixed. -- usb-creator does not work when $HOME is on NFS https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/295172 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 295172] Re: usb-creator does not work when $HOME is on NFS
A possible fix is to write the log file to /var/log/usb-creator.log instead of ~/.usb_creator.log if the user is root. The fix is easy, in usbcreator/backend.py:28-29 replace with: log_file = '/var/log/usb-creator.log' I've attached the modified file. I couldn't figure out how to generate a patch quickly. The Code tab in launchpad let me download a .tar.gz, so you're getting a modified file. Sorry for the inconvenience. ** Attachment added: "patched backend.py" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/28725240/backend.py -- usb-creator does not work when $HOME is on NFS https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/295172 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
