we're running release version, we used apt-get install in the ubuntu system (arm platform).
Will send error message when i can reproduce it. At this point, we do see such things, even though NM is still running and ping still works for both eth ports. /var/log/syslog.1:Jan 10 16:50:33 utilite-ubuntu-desktop NetworkManager[2831]: <error> [1389390633.544433] [nm-manager-auth.c:87] pk_authority_get(): Failed to initialize PolicyKit: (23) Error initializing authority: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ExecFailed: Failed to execute program /usr/lib/dbus-1.0/dbus-daemon-launch-helper: Success Many thanks ! > Subject: Re: NetworkManager process dies sometimes > From: dcbw redhat com > To: ningji hotmail com > CC: networkmanager-list gnome org > Date: Fri, 14 Feb 2014 09:05:40 -0600 > > On Fri, 2014-02-14 at 03:45 +0000, ning ji wrote: > > This is for embedded system, kernel 3.0.35-cm-fx6-4, > > fs is using ubuntu 12.02。NetworkManager version is 0.9.4. > > > > Since this is embedded system, there's no GUI, you can just view message outputs from console.(BUT we do have 2 login sessions, 1 is for GUI, don't ask me why, someone else did it) > > We use networkmanager to manager the 2 ethernet ports. Most of the time it's fine.0Once a while no network connection, and turned out to be networkmanager process has died.Pls note this could happen during weekends, no one is touching the board, our application should has nothing to with it. > > Also Not sure if related, but someone's board displays this, > > ** (process:31111): WARNING **: Could not initialize NMClient /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager: Did not receive a reply.
