network-manager trying to connect eth0 but with no result

[Nizzzia]

Binary package hint: network-manager

In Ubuntu 9.10, right after booting the network-manager is running as if it was connecting (i.e. connection in progress) but never connects to network

unmarking duplicate. I experience the same bug, but the work around at bug 407648 did not work for me.

apt-get purge network-manager and reinstall did not work. I had to manually configure my settings, it seems like it can't automatically configure network connections through dhcp.

[Nizzzia (nizzzia)]

Yes, manual configuration works fine. So the bug should be described as 'Failure of automatic network configuration with the network-manager', I guess.

Can you try upgrade your Karmic system (up to date), network-manager package and check if this problem is still occurring?

[Scott Howard (showard314)]

It set it back to auto assignment through DHCP, and it is working
again. It's fixed for me, but the original reporter should probably
confirm it as well.
