[Bug 1194791] Re: gufw does not start from System Settings -> Firewall Configuration

 

Well... We need more tests :P I'm so sorry about that, but it's the
unique way.

PREVIOUS QUESTIONS:

1. I'm supposing you can't run Gufw from the Unity menu too?? Ubuntu
icon + Gufw search > Click in Gufw.

2. Please, don't use "sudo" with gnome-control-center :) Maybe root user hasn't the same paths as a normal user.
actionmystique@ACER-Aspire:~$ sudo gnome-control-center
Change for this:
actionmystique@ACER-Aspire:~$ gnome-control-center

3. Please, don't edit the Gufw code for testing purposes :) Recovery the right code with this:
 sudo apt-get purge gufw ; sudo apt-get install gufw


ABOUT THE BUG:

4. About this line: "ImportError: No module named dbus".
Could you try this in a Terminal as normal user?
python
import dbus
exit()
Please, put the result here :)

Uhm, I think it's not a Gufw problem, Gufw is not finding dbus. Sometimes, while you're installing an app, some depedencies can't be downloaded by a network problem, the system show a confirm dialog about that. Sometimes it could be a problem in the hard disk too. Could it be possible in your system?
Could you reinstall all the Gufw dependencies and try it again?
sudo apt-get install --reinstall gir1.2-gtk-3.0 gir1.2-polkit-1.0 gnome-icon-theme-symbolic notify-osd policykit-1 python python-dbus python-gobject ufw gufw


5. The new version http://gufw.org/new (I recommend it to your system because it has a lot of improvements) are not using dbus, then it has to work, but if the problem is in dbus, the problem will be persist for other applications (I don't remember any dbus app :$).

Thanks in advance!
