Description Palm Pre 2014-10-12 22:14:13 CEST
Description of problem:

I'm using VirtualBox to install Mageia4 from Mageia-4-LiveDVD-GNOME-i586-DVD.iso image. After installation, I can't start MCC from GNOME. Mageia is complaying that password is incorrect. However, It's possible to use terminal and switch to root using the same password.

I tried to reinstall Mageia a few times still the same problem. 

The latest was checking integrity:
MD5SUM match mirror but sd256 doesn't. 


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download Mageia-4-LiveDVD-GNOME-i586-DVD.iso
2. Install Mageia from iso using VirtualBox.
3. Try to open MCC from GNOME GUI. 


Reproducible:

Perhaps it has to do with sudo which is not configured properly

CC: (none) => olivier
Source RPM: Mageia-4-LiveDVD-GNOME-i586-DVD.iso => sudo

Comment 4 Marja Van Waes 2015-09-21 10:51:29 CEST
Installer and Release bugs should always be set to cauldron, because once the isos for a stable version have been created, they cannot be changed.

This bug was filed very long ago, for Mageia 4. Was this bug still valid for Mageia 5?

(If so, please do _not_ set the version to "5". Only asking because if it was still valid for Mageia 5, that then we'll know we'll have to pay attention to this issue when testing the 6 alpha's and later).

Please close this bug report if the problem was solved in Mageia 5hhhh

Recently installed Mageia 5 (LXDE, from x86 DVD). The same problem

After I updated system several times, it was fixed.

Just in case:
