[Jds-team] [OpenIndiana Distribution - Bug #1113] (New) users-admin - su not succeeded

[illumos project]

Issue #1113 has been updated by Chris Jordan.

Status changed from Feedback to New
Assignee changed from Chris Jordan to OI JDS

Michael, ah, I didn't realize you were configured to use German.  I can reproduce the error you report running "users-admin" when I configure the 151 live dvd for the German language, while it works fine for the English language.  So, I reproduce it by:

1. Boot oi-dev-151-x86-20110608-1.iso, configure it for the German language (English or German keyboard layout seems not to matter).

2. Bring up a terminal window and run "users-admin" or click on System/Systemverwaltung/Benutzer und Gruppen.

3. The gtk window pops up, but doesn't show any user data, and an error window pops up saying ">>su<< konnte nicht ausgefuhrt werden
Stellen Sie Sicher, dass Sie die Berechtigung haben, diesen Befehl auszufuhren".  If running from a terminal window, the terminal window displays the following error several times: "** (users-admin:2714): CRITICAL **: file gst-report-line.c: line 196: assertion `major != GST_MAJOR_INVALID' failed".  Also no log file is created in /var/run/setup-tool-backends/debug/users where there man page for users-admin says it should be.  Indeed /var/run/setup-tool-backends does not exist.

4. Reboot, try the same thing with the English language, and it works fine.

I'm assigning this to "OI JDS" (although perhaps "OI G11n" might also be appropriate?)

I do have the following problem here:

Starting users-manager  - the GTK window appears and tells me - you don't have enough rights - su couldn't proceed.

this is a fresh install of  oi-151 ..

think it's only a small bug - but couldn't find out how to solve it
