“NetworkManager is not running”- error. After manually upgrading nmcli to 1.0.6 on ubuntu 12.04












3














I need to use the new version of NetworkManager on ubuntu 12.04.
I've installed NetworkManager-1.0.6 from source code, from gnome Projects web site
(And allot of it's dependencies).



After installation,



I tried to run:



$ nmcli connection
Error: NetworkManager is not running.


then I tried:



$ service network-manager start
start: Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call",
sender=":1.156" (uid=1000 pid=9473 comm="start network-manager ")
interface="com.ubuntu.Upstart0_6.Job" member="Start" error name="
(unset)" requested_reply="0" destination="com.ubuntu.Upstart" (uid=0
pid=1 comm="/sbin/init")

$ service network-manager status
network-manager stop/waiting


As root it appears that the network-manager start running but it's still stays in the same status:



$ sudo service network-manager start
network-manager start/running, process 9975

$ sudo service network-manager status
network-manager stop/waiting


What can I check ?
How can I make it work ?
Should I install/update the network-manager in a different way?

          First, you cannot run launch a daemon without root access using Upstart (the init daemon of Ubuntu). Moreover, the network-manager program needs root access as its goal is to allow regular user access to the network (which is restricted to root user in most Unix systems).



          As for your problem, you need to find out where the problem come from. You can try to have a look in the logs (/var/log/messages or /var/log/messages.log on Ubuntu 12.04). Another option is to launch the application and see the error message, by running directly network-manager daemon from your shell:



          sudo /usr/bin/NetworkManager --no-daemon


          Also, did you remove the ubuntu network-manager package before installing from source? And how did you install it from source?

          Then try to find a log available. sudo ls -l /var/log. Here is a doc to see each log function: help.ubuntu.com/community/LinuxLogFiles. You may want to look for a file named syslog or everything.
