[Bug 1508718] Re: NetworkManager - error initialzing editor

 

the resolv.conf could be wrong.

try the modify pppd-startfile:
go to „/etc/ppp/ip-up.d/" and modify the file "00-dns.sh“.
At the end of the file write: 
chmod 640 /etc/resolv.conf
chown root:network /etc/resolv.conf

so you have maked the standard of the file. that should be all.


Es kann unter gewissen Konfigurationen vorkommen, dass nach dem Verbinden per Script die resolv.conf falsche Besitzangaben und falsche Rechte hat. Dies resultiert darin, dass man nur als root auf das DNS zugreifen kann, und als Nutzer keine Auflösung von Domains mehr möglich ist.

Ein Workaround dafür ist, eine pppd-Startdatei anzupassen. Dazu wechselt
man in das Verzeichnis „/etc/ppp/ip-up.d/“, dort bearbeitet oder
erstellt man eine Datei „00-dns.sh“

Entweder muss man hier ganz am Ende der Datei, oder in der neuen, leeren
Datei folgendes reinschreiben.

chmod 640 /etc/resolv.conf
chown root:network /etc/resolv.conf

Dadurch wird der Standard für diese Datei wiederhergestellt, und man hat
auch als normaler Nutzer wieder Zugriff auf die Namensauflösung.

  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Error initializing editor
  settings/nm-settings-connection.c.995 - Connection didn't have requested setting 'ppp'

  Error occurs when attempting to edit existing mobile broadband connection.
