[Bluez-users] hcid not working - bluez 3.9

[Bluez-users] hcid not working - bluez 3.9

[Sumeet Verma]

Hi
I have been trying to bring up bluez-utils-3.9 and hcid is not working. It 
says 

[root@dlhl0330 tools]# hcid -n
hcid[29560]: Bluetooth HCI daemon
hcid[29560]: Can't connect to system message bus: Failed to connect to 
socket /usr/local/var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory
hcid[29560]: Unable to get on D-Bus

I have looked into the mailing list and followed the mentioned procedure. I 
have installed dbus-0.61 and started the system bus by calling dbus-launch

[root@dlhl0330 dbus]# dbus-launch
DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS='unix:abstract=/tmp/dbus-
BcAG8pbfI2,guid=adea0b46b6c8607cd9bc4162ffe90200';
DBUS_SESSION_BUS_PID=29606;
[root@dlhl0330 dbus]#

I can see the dbus-daemon running when is do ps -e

system_bus_socket is present at the location /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket 
Is there any way I can configure hcid to take the system_bus_socket 
from /var/run/dbus instead of /usr/local/var/run/dbus

Please suggest.


Sumeet

the session bus is not the same as the system bus. You need a running
system bus for hcid. And normally your distribution ensures that it is
setup correctly.

Re: [Bluez-users] hcid not working - bluez 3.9

[Sumeet VERMA]

Hi Marcel,
How would I know that the system bus is up and running? Basically I think
the problem is the socket system_bus_socket is created in /var/run/dbus
instead of /usr/local/var/run/dbus.

I tried to configure the dbus-0.61 package with the following string

./configure --prefix=/usr/local --disable-gtk --disable-selinux
--with-session-socket-dir=/usr/local/var/run/dbus
--with-dbus-user=messagebus --with-test-socket-dir=/usr/local/var/run/dbus 
But still it doesn't work.

Any pointers?

Regards,

Sumeet

Hi Sumeet,

Here are my message BUS processes  running:

1001      4725     1  0 08:36 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/dbus-daemon
--fork --print-pid 8 --print-address 6 --session
104       6791     1  0 09:07 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/dbus-daemon --system

Check the following lock file in order to verify if the system BUS is running:
/var/run/dbus/pid

Remove this file if the system message BUS is not running and execute
"dbus-daemon --system"

BR,
Claudio.

Re: [Bluez-users] hcid not working - bluez 3.9

[Sumeet VERMA]

Hi Claudio
I have already done that. I remove the file
/usr/local/var/run/messagebus.pid and run dbus-daemon --system
The dbus-daemon is also started in the background. 
The problem is system_bus_socket is present in /var/run/dbus and not created
in /usr/local/var/run/dbus
Is it possible to configure hcid so that it takes the system_bus_socket from
/var/run/dbus

One more question:- There  is a default version of dbus installed (0.22).
system_bus_socket is also present at /var/run/dbus (I think it is created by
the default version of dbus). When I install dbus-0.61, there is no
system_bus_socket created in /usr/local/var/run/dbus. How do I overcome this
problem?

My distribution is Red Hat Linux Kernelversion - 2.6.9-42


BR,
Sumeet

Hi Sumeet,

Here are my message BUS processes  running:

1001      4725     1  0 08:36 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/dbus-daemon
--fork --print-pid 8 --print-address 6 --session
104       6791     1  0 09:07 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/dbus-daemon
--system

Check the following lock file in order to verify if the system BUS is
running:
/var/run/dbus/pid

Remove this file if the system message BUS is not running and execute
"dbus-daemon --system"

BR,
Claudio.
