wifi-radar crashed with SyntaxError in read()

[Ulsak]

Binary package hint: wifi-radar

Description: Ubuntu karmic (development branch)

2. wifi-radar 2.0.s05-1

3. expected nothing but quitness ( I haven't used it actively yet)

4. This Crash Report was generated

DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.10

WORKAROUND: This issue seems to be caused by changes from the WR configuration from 1.9.x to 2.x. To bypass:

1. stop wifi-radar;
2. save current /etc/wifi-radar.conf: sudo mv /etc/wifi-radar.conf /etc/wifi-radar.conf.saved
3. restart wifi-radar (either via the menu, or via 'sudo wifi-radar'

[Sean Robinson (seankrobinson)]

As I am unable to access the original bug to comment there, I will respond to this duplicate. I believe all of these reports are caused by a WR v1.9.9 configuration file being read. The configuration file format changed from v1.9.9 to v2.0.x and it is not backward compatible. As this error message indicates no configured profiles in the config file, delete /etc/wifi-radar/wifi-radar.conf and run WR again.

[Sean Robinson (seankrobinson)]

I'm converting this bug report to be the public parent for the "SyntaxError in read()" error.

[OTHman (amir963ma)]

that work for me, thanks

[Utz (utz-recke)]

that worked, thanks

[Ron Widell (r-widell)]

Not only does the config file not exist on my system, neither does the parent directory (/etc/wifi-radar).
Do I need to create this directory?

[Flash (cyrille-gordon)]

Worked for me :
Deleting /etc/wifi-radar.conf
Lauching Wifi-Radar

thanks

[sztanyoo (sztanyoo)]

Cool!
That's the way! :)

Thanks guys!

This also worked for me,

  delete the file /etc/wifi-radar.conf
  restart the wifi-radar daemon

  seems to be working.

[Stephan von Krawczynski (skraw)]

me, too, deleting /etc/wifi-radar.conf works.

[xavier (xavier-pujol)]

I've deleted /etc/wifi-radar.conf and NOT work
I've made 'sudo wifi-radar' and works fine.
I've made 'sudo chmod 666 /etc/wifi-radar.conf' and NOT work.

[Harald (hdmuell)]

I didn't notice the crash, before the crash report icon came up

[Rick (rickledford)]

did not find /etc/wifi-radar/wifi-radar.conf
did find /etc/wifi-radar.conf
deleted /etc/wifi-radar.conf
restarted wifi-radar
it works!!
Ubuntu 64.
Good.

Deleting the /etc/wifi-radar.conf and restarting the app solved the problem for me as well. Thanks everyone :)

[Sean Robinson (seankrobinson)]

  While you are correct that the particular error (SyntaxError in read())
can be fixed by your change, other things in the config file have been
re-organized and WR 1.9.9 config files are not read correctly by WR 2.0.s05.

  Because this error message indicates that no AP profiles are configured,
it should be safe to delete the file. If you want to be extra cautious,
move the old config file to a new location and restart WiFi Radar.

Thank you for your reply. I have deleted the config file and restarted WR
and it starts fine; however, I haven't tested to see if it will receive
anything yet, as I'm plugged directly into a wired modem. That's okay at
present, since I istalled WR for when I do not have that option. It worked
great when I installed it, so I have no complaints. You folks have done a
great job. Thanks again for the reply.

Beats me, no wifi on here.

I've been using 9.10 for half a year without any problems. Today I upgraded to 10.4 beta2, and when I rebooted the laptop after the install and signed in, and this occurred. I had my PCMCIA wifi-card inserted, it found and connected to my home WLAN, and then I got the info about a crash in the application. I tried to submit the automated bug report, but it seems that Launchpad didn't include it when I selected that this is the same bug (the automatic title was exactly the same).

@Sampo Niskanen

Are you utilizing WiFi Radar? I believe you are really using Network Manager for your wireless connections. So, you could probably uninstall WiFi Radar.

@Sean Robinson: are you working on a fix for this? If not, please unassign yourself from the bug -- nobody will touch it while you are assigned to it ;-)

Thanks

Thank you for letting me know. No, I am not working on it. Please feel
free to fix it.
