TypeError: object of type `NoneType` has no len()

Open raiguard opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

When setting up a user account with no password (leaving the password field blank), archinstall crashes. I am using the latest arch ISO (07.01). I'm going to set a password anyway and just use auto-login (I'm using full disk encryption and don't want to type two passwords), but this shouldn't crash.

Steps:

  • archinstall
  • Select User account
  • Enter username
  • Leave password blank and hit enter
  • Select no for superuser
  • See crash

I am unable to upload an image of the stacktrace from either my phone or my PC due to a certificate error. Luckily, it's easy to reproduce.

Thanks for reporting, I'll have a look at it :)

@raiguard apologies for the very late response, I can't seem to be able to reproduce this one. I think this might have already been fixed and should work in master. If you could try it there just to confirm that would be great!

Okay I was able to confirm that the error exists on the latest ISO release but is fixed in master, so I think we can close this @Torxed
