GNOME Live CD installer error during repository refresh: "UI Syntax Error: No widget with ID: `contents"
Last modified: 2021-02-18 14:54:30 UTC
During the repository configuration step of the automatic configuration stage after reboot, the installer errors with the above message for each repository added.

Before this fatal error, there are a couple of "connection failed" errors: (getDoesFileExist):810 RETHROW: MediaCurl.cc(doGetDoesFileExist):1089: Download (curl) error for 'http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.3/repo/non-oss/content': 2010-07-14 17:29:30 <5> linux-ztxs(1554) [zypp] Exception.cc(log):133 Error code: Connection failed 2010-07-14 17:29:30 <5> linux-ztxs(1554) [zypp] Exception.cc(log):133 Error message: couldn't connect to host Sounds like some module may not be fully coping with those errors. In normal circumstances, that ReplaceWidget() call expected a wizard dialog to be active, but maybe the error dialog was never properly closed? Don't see anything Gnome specific anyhow.
Ok, got the same error when installing the Gnome Live CD via VirtualBox without an Internet connection. I chose "Installation" when booting from the CD, not the default "Live CD" option. The installation script also print an error message on exit, but there were no apparent recurrent problems. (Will: tell us if you did anything different, so we can find a common denominator. For instance, did you also install via VirtualBox? Did you run install directly from the grub menu, or the live desktop? Were you connected to the internet?) I will attach screenshots of the error window, as well as the y2logs.

Created attachment 384417 [details] I get this expected window after the previous error message I also get the same "no widget with ID" error message for "repo-oss", as well as this one network fail message. Afterwards, the installation proceeds as normal.
Created attachment 384424 [details] My y2logs Identical to Will's. Only that they continue past the error: 2010-08-19 17:28:55 <2> linux-1sg8(1748) [ui] YWidget.cc(findWidget):649 THROW: No widget with ID `contents 2010-08-19 17:28:55 <2> linux-1sg8(1748) [ui] YCP_UI.cc(ReplaceWidget):834 CAUGHT: No widget with ID `contents By the way, just noticed that right before the `contents error, there is `WizardDialog error. Weird there was no error window for this one. 2010-08-19 17:28:55 <2> linux-1sg8(1748) [ui] YWidget.cc(findWidget):649 THROW: No widget with ID `WizardDialog 2010-08-19 17:28:55 <2> linux-1sg8(1748) [ui] YCP_UI.cc(ChangeWidget):688 CAUGHT: No widget with ID `WizardDialog 2010-08-19 17:28:55 <3> linux-1sg8(1748) [libycp] Wizard.ycp:662 UI::ChangeWidget failed: UI::ChangeWidget( `id (`WizardDialog), `HelpText, "<p>Please wait while packages are being installed.</p><P><B>Aborting Installation</B> Package installation can be aborted using the <B>Abort</B> button. However, the system then can be in an inconsistent or unusable state or it may not boot if the basic system component is not installed.</P>" )
I believe this is related to package manager rather than installation workflow.
I'll look at it.

The media change callback in Yast expected the slideshow dialog be opened, that is not true when a refresh fails. Fixed in yast2-packager-2.20.6 (FACTORY, 11.4-M3, OBS YaST:Head)
