Package: network-manager-gnome Version: 0.9.0-2 Severity: normal I waited for the VPN server to let me in again and did a
watch -e 'nmcli con up uuid 609bd441-de2d-4654-b798-2154cd3a5882; [ $? -ne 0 ]' which tried to connect about 800 times (every 2 seconds). After some time it started failing because there was no password/username given. The VPN preferences dialog showed no password/username anymore. Setting it again had no effect, reopening.. empty again. Restarting network-manager didn't help. ..xsession-errors showed many: ** (nm-applet:7212): WARNING **: Failed to create pipe for communicating with child process (Too many open files) ** (nm-applet:7212): WARNING **: Failed to create pipe for communicating with child process (Too many open files) ** (nm-applet:7212): WARNING **: Failed to create pipe for communicating with child process (Too many open files) ** (nm-applet:7212): WARNING **: Failed to create pipe for communicating with child process (Too many open files) ** (nm-applet:7212): WARNING **: Failed to create pipe for communicating with child process (Too many open files) ** (nm-applet:7212): WARNING **: Failed to create pipe for communicating with child process (Too many open files) Restarting the machine made it work again. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (600, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.0.0-1-686-pae (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages network-manager-gnome depends on: ii dbus-x11 1.4.16-1 ii gconf2 2.32.4-1 ii gnome-icon-theme 3.0.0-4 ii libatk1.0-0 2.2.0-1 ii libc6 2.13-21 ii libcairo2 1.10.2-6.1 ii libdbus-1-3 1.4.16-1 ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.94-4 ii libfontconfig1 2.8.0-3 ii libfreetype6 2.4.6-2 ii libgconf2-4 2.32.4-1 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.24.0-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.28.6-1 ii libgnome-bluetooth7 2.30.0-3 ii libgnome-keyring0 3.0.0-2 ii libgtk2.0-0 2.24.4-3 ii libnm-glib-vpn1 0.9.0-2 ii libnm-glib4 0.9.0-2 ii libnm-util2 0.9.0-2 ii libnotify4 0.7.4-1 ii libpango1.0-0 1.28.4-3 ii network-manager 0.9.0-2 ii policykit-1-gnome 0.102-2 Versions of packages network-manager-gnome recommends: ii gnome-bluetooth 2.30.0-3 ii libpam-gnome-keyring [libpam-keyring] 3.0.3-2 ii mobile-broadband-provider-info 20110806-1 ii notification-daemon 0.7.2-1 ii notify-osd [notification-daemon] 0.9.30-1 Versions of packages network-manager-gnome suggests: ii network-manager-openvpn-gnome <none> ii network-manager-pptp-gnome <none> ii network-manager-vpnc-gnome 0.9.0-2 -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
