Description Gianni Rossi 2013-02-25 18:43:34 UTC

If the system's python is set for version 3, firewalld fails to start with the message:

firewalld          | * Caching service dependencies ...[ ok ]
firewalld          | * Starting firewalld ...
firewalld          |  File "/usr/sbin/firewalld", line 107
firewalld          |    os.umask(os.umask(0077) | 0022)

Setting python with eselect to 2.7 and restarting the service solves the problem.  If the python version is then put back to 3, firewalld will now start ok.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
(starting with a fresh gentoo install)
1.  Set python to 3.2
2.  Install libvirtd with firewalld
3.  /etc/init.d/firewalld start
4. fail!
Actual Results:  
firewalld          | * Caching service dependencies ...                                                                                                                                                                                                                  [ ok ]

firewalld          | * ERROR: firewalld failed to start


Expected Results:  
/etc/init.d/firewalld starts

Comment 1 Troy C 2013-03-10 19:20:53 UTC

same here, changing line 1 of /usr/sbin/firewalld to 

#!/usr/bin/python2

fixes the problem.

Comment 2 Taahir Ahmed 2013-08-01 04:14:57 UTC

I just ran into this as well, with the same behavior described by Gianni.

Comment 3 Khumba 2013-08-21 05:16:14 UTC

Hit this on an ~amd64 systemd system.  Confirmed that changing the shebangs in

  /usr/sbin/firewalld
  /usr/bin/firewall-applet
  /usr/bin/firewall-cmd
  /usr/bin/firewall-config
  /usr/bin/firewall-offline-cmd

fixes the issue.  This is affecting both 0.2.9-r1 and 0.2.12.

+1

"same here, changing line 1 of /usr/sbin/firewalld to 

#!/usr/bin/python2

fixes the problem."

solved in version bump to 0.3.10 (by supporting py3k, but wrapper scripts are now installed properly)
