[Bug 1409436] Re: Networks list not populated in Sharing settings

 

I'm sorry to hear that. I was hoping for a solution or work-around for
14.10 because the complete sharing section is now unusable, but I guess
that's the risk of going for a staging GNOME release :-/

For those running into the same problems: at least for Rygel (media
sharing) you can enable it manually by installing and using rygel-
preferences. Without additional trickery you'll have to do it after each
reboot though.

Title:
  Networks list not populated in Sharing settings

Status in Ubuntu GNOME:
  New
Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Since GNOME 3.14 you have to select a network in the different sections in "Sharing" settings to specify to which network the sharing applies.
  The "Networks" list isn't populated with network entries though. No wired nor wireless connections are listed. This makes it impossible to e.g. enabled "Media Sharing" because it results in the following error:

      (gnome-control-center.real:9638): sharing-cc-panel-WARNING **:
  Failed to enable service rygel:
  GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.InvalidArgs: Sharing cannot be
  enabled on this network, status is '0'

  Attached you'll find a screenshot illustrating the problem.

  An attempt to toggle "Media Sharing" on with make the toggle quickly
  switch from on to off again.

  Why isn't the list populated and how do I fix it?

  Let me know if you need any more information.
