Wifi Radar not running?

Asked by Theatre-X

Wifi-radar seems to be running so I did a little debugging and I got this. Can anyone help analyze this? Thank you :) :

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/sbin/wifi-radar", line 2915, in <module>
    confFile.read()
  File "/usr/sbin/wifi-radar", line 2798, in read
    self.auto_profile_order = eval(self.get_opt('DEFAULT.auto_profile_order'))
  File "<string>", line 0

    ^
SyntaxError: unexpected EOF while parsing

That's what received when I ran it as root and had it print out the output.
Is this just something being goofy or a bug?

Sounds like a bug, try a clean instal lof the app:

sudo apt-get --purge remove wifi-radar; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove; sudo apt-get clean; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install wifi-radar

If running the app still generates an error then you have a bug and should report it. You can use wicd in the meantime if it suits your needs like wifi-radar.

Always try a reinstall in that way for troublesome apps (use --purge too to get rid of old config files outside of $HOME)
