problems with gnome keyring in latest wheezy update

#1 Post by leo-butler »

I am running wheezy (testing) on an eee ha904. After I pulled down the last round of updates, I have had problems with network-manager accessing secrets in the gnome-keyring. Here is a snippet from .xsession-errors:

Code: Select all

WARNING: gnome-keyring:: couldn't connect to: /tmp/keyring-fOclPy/pkcs11: No such file or directory
** Message: No keyring secrets found for My-SSID/802-11-wireless-security; asking user.
And, sure enough,

Code: Select all

$ ls -l /tmp/keyring-fOclPy/
total 0
srwxr-xr-x 1 work work 0 Dec 22 08:20 control
This problem appears with all my desktops (icewm, gnome classic and gnome3).

I would appreciate any help in tracking down this problem--I assume that there has been a change in the default policy of the gnome-keyring-daemon, but I can't find any mention of this in the NEWS file or elsewhere. I am also unable to find any errors in the log files that seem related to this, but I may not know what to look for.

Is gnome keyring automatically loaded in Wheezy? I ask because XFCE has a checkbox in Session and Startup > Advanced > Launch Gnome services on startup. I would have thought that it would be automatic when the kernel booted but maybe not.

Well, it does appear that the keyring daemon is started on login:

Code: Select all

$ ps -C gnome-keyring-daemon ww
  PID TTY      STAT   TIME COMMAND
 4148 ?        Sl     0:00 /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --daemonize --login
 4250 ?        S      0:00 /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --start --foreground --components=secrets
It bothers me, though, that there are two instances running.However, if I kill the foregrounded process, this does not appear to make a difference.

That doesn't seem right, does it?

Well, I should make a post on this alone....
Sorry, apparently this is not related to your problem, removing previous post for a new one... :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

No, it does not. I am not sure why this is happening though. It seems like gdm3 is launching a daemon, then the window manager/desktop, but I am not sure. Any ideas?

I get the same error msg (

Code: Select all

system-config-printer-applet
WARNING: gnome-keyring:: couldn't connect to: /tmp/keyring-f9rvUF/pkcs11: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
when i try to print. What can i do here (up to now, printing is impossible although anything is installed correctly, i think . . .)

Is this related to the original post? If not, admin please move my question to the right place.

Running wheezy + LXDE on a Powermac.
