Description Olaf Hering 2006-07-10 11:39:23 UTC 
a fresh install of 10.1 via smb on cantaloupe.suse.de, gnome default

yast aborted itself in the second stage.

I did enable ssh access in the mainwindow, then clicked on "Firewall.." to disable the logging. There are a few selectable list entries on the left side. By accident I clicked below the last entry, in the inactive area. This leads to:

Lukas, could you look at this problem?
Comment 3 Lukas Ocilka 2006-07-10 12:07:59 UTC 
DialogTree is jsrain's but it might be also a bug in Qt...?
Comment 4 Lukas Ocilka 2006-07-10 12:08:29 UTC 
BTW: I was unable to reproduce it on the running system...
Comment 5 Jiri Srain 2006-07-11 07:08:27 UTC 
The error looks like either an interpreter error, or incorrectly called DialogTree::Run function.

Olaf, as Lukas failed to reproduce it, could you, please, try reproducing it with debug logs? From standard ones I can't find what causes the problem...
Comment 6 Olaf Hering 2006-07-12 12:27:10 UTC 
I tried to reproduce it by touching /var/lib/YaST2/runme_at_boot, but that did not help. Will try a reinstall.
Comment 7 Olaf Hering 2006-07-12 15:08:26 UTC 
its reproduceable.
If I enter that screen, nothing is selected on the left side. Will try to get some logs tomorrow.

10.2 alpha2 crashes as well.
Comment 9 Stanislav Visnovsky 2006-07-20 13:13:01 UTC 

string initial_screen = settings["initial_screen"]:"";             
map<any, any> functions = settings["functions"]:$[];
if (initial_screen == "") {
    foreach (string k, map<string,any> v, screens, {
        if (initial_screen == "")                                                             
            initial_screen = k;
    });
}

selected_screen = initial_screen;



So, if the map for the widget describes the initial screen as nil, it will crash YaST.
Comment 10 Jiri Srain 2006-07-25 13:51:28 UTC 
Checking for initial_screen == nil submitted to SVN.
