Title:
Hotspot not working with NM 1.2
Status in Canonical System Image:
Fix Released
Status in indicator-network package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
While testing network-manager 1.1.93-0ubuntu1~vivid1 we noticed that
hotspot no longer worked on arale or krillin ( it's not enabled on
mako ).
The first issue was that if no NM connection file yet existed for the
hotspot, indicator-network would fail creating one due to a DBus
error:
void nmofono::HotspotManager::Priv::addConnection() Adding new hotspot
connection
Failed to add connection: "ipv4.dns: can't set property of type 'au' from
value of type 'as'"
This was due to indicator-network using the following code to set this
setting:
ipv4[QStringLiteral("dns")] = QVariant(QStringList());
My guess is that NM's re-factoring of it's DBus code to use gdbus
instead of dbus-glib, resulting in NM being a bit more strict in it's
parameter checking.
Removing this, and the same for the 'addresses' and 'routes' settings allows
indicator-network to create hotspot connection files once again.
See the associated branch for the update.
If a connection file already exists, or one is created with the fix
from the merge proposal, then the current problem is that when 'Start'
is pressed, the UI displays a spinner which is never dismissed.
Testing has shown that the hotspot is actually activated, can be seen
from other devices and connected to.
Testing has also shown that it's possible to activate the hotspot
using nmcli directly, and the result is usable from other clients.
