https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=214285 Summary: zen-updater says "ZMD is not running" while zmd is refreshing services Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Alpha 5 plus Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Zenworks AssignedTo: zlm-code10-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: andreas.hanke@gmx-topmail.de QAContact: jtariq@novell.com During initial service refresh directly after zmd started (e.g. directly after system startup/first login), zen-updater tells me: ZMD is not running But that is not true, zmd is running, refreshing its services. "rug sl" says: # | Status | Typ | Name | URI --+---------+------+-----------------+------------------------------------------ 1 | Pending | ZYPP | 20061005-205716 | http://ftp-1.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/ft... 2 | Pending | ZYPP | 20061012-222446 | http://ftp-1.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/dist... 3 | Pending | ZYPP | 20061015-222413 | http://ftp-1.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/dist... After the refresh finished, zen-updater behaves as desired. This is zen-updater-7.1.100-8 (r35517) on openSUSE 10.2 Alpha. I like the new way zen-updater informs the user about a not running zmd, but it should do that only if zmd is _really_ not running. I consider this a usability problem because the message "ZMD is not running" indicates that there is something wrong with zmd, requiring user intervention to make it run, although in fact everything is fine. It should say something different in this case, maybe just "Refreshing services", which is the truth. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
