weird "secret service operation failed" message

getagrip · 2010-04-13 11:25:44

Hi,

Using the subversion commandline works fine but I also get the following message everytime I run an svn command:

svn ls

Message: secret service operation failed: The name org.freedesktop.secrets was not provided by any .service files

src/
doc/
pom.xml

Any hints what might be causing the problem?
I cannot find anything related on the web except wireless / segfault related issues but I do not use wireless and there are no errors because the svn commands work as expected.

Would also like to know what might be causing this. It isn't very problematic but it surely clutters the svn output

Clearly the Secret Service is having reliability issues right now. Unless you're a high-ranking government official, I don't think you should worry about it.

(I don't know what the error message may mean, but I couldn't resist the joke.)

Yep, I also think the output is annoying, anyone can tell me why this message appears?...

This problem appears to be disallowing access to my keyring, since nm-applet has become incapable of remembering wifi keys...

But I have not installed nm-applet or other network manager at all...

I wasn't saying it was caused by nm-applet, rather that the problem affects it.

I'm receiving the same error, It does appear to be something to do with pcmanfm as you can see below (on my system it seems to be anyways).
I havn't found a way to fix as of yet, I'm quite new to linux so googling and what little I've learned are my only resources atm

@archbang ~]$ gksu pcmanfm
** Message: secret service operation failed: The name org.freedesktop.secrets was not provided by any .service files
** Message: secret service operation failed: The name org.freedesktop.secrets was not provided by any .service files
** Message: secret service operation failed: The name org.freedesktop.secrets was not provided by any .service files

(pcmanfm:28673): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed

hopefully that's of some help ....to someone

Does anybody have a solution yet? Kinda experiencing this problem too

I think the messages are related to Gnome Keyring. I removed the packages gnome-keyring and libgnome-keyring and after that svn didn't show those messages any more. But now the following message is printed:

Connecting to deprecated signal QDBusConnectionInterface::serviceOwnerChanged(QString,QString,QString)

I can't help you with fixing the issue - but it is related to gnome-keyring which _should_ provide org.freedesktop.secrets for password storage (eg for gksu).

So this is a bug of arch packager?

manualy start gnome-keyring-daemon. adding it to rc.local could help.

Ramses de Norre · 2010-05-03 11:14:37

In ~/.subversion/config uncomment the password-stores entry and set it blank, the gnome and kde keyrings wont be used then (these are the programs giving you those errors). I remember that you had to have either

password-stores=

or

password-stores =

one of them works, the other gives an error.

Yep, the latter one , "password-stores =" works, thanks
