Description John Reiser 2011-01-31 02:12:50 UTC 
Description of problem: Install from DVD fails because /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket does not exist.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
anaconda-15.18

How reproducible: every time


Steps to Reproduce:
1. compose install DVD from rawhide of 2011-01-30 (Sunday)
2. boot DVD for Fresh Install, Basic devices
3. 
  
Actual results: Messages on text console about /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket not accessible, followed by Unhanded exception.


Expected results: No complaints, no unhandled exception.


Additional info:
The first suspicious message on text console is:
   [mounting /tmp as tmpfs]
   Failed to start message bus: Failed to bind socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket
   [running install...]

Then there are dozens of messages
  ** (loader:119): WARNING: Couldn't connect to system bus: Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory
which are double-spaced (or perhaps triple-spaced.)

None of those messages complaining about system_bus_socket appears in the output of dmesg (given on VT2) or in any log file in /tmp.  Using the shell on VT2, the _directory_ /var/run/dbus does not exist.

Were there any problems pulling the dbus package into your livecd compose?

g/dbus/p from pungi log (after downloads)

Here are all the lines from the pungi log (after the downloads) that have 'dbus'. There is a suspicious line:
   pylorax.yumhelper.DEBUG: erasing package dbus

Version info:
lorax-0.3-1.fc15.noarch
Comment 3 Chris Lumens 2011-01-31 18:15:22 UTC 
Huh, that seems weird.
Comment 4 Martin Gracik 2011-01-31 19:46:48 UTC 
Ok, with that removing, you have to look at the lines in context

dbus	['/lib/systemd/*']
erasing package dbus
removed /pub/pungi/work/x86_64/yumroot/installroot//lib/systemd/system/dbus.service
removed /pub/pungi/work/x86_64/yumroot/installroot//lib/systemd/system/dbus.socket
removed /pub/pungi/work/x86_64/yumroot/installroot//lib/systemd/system/dbus.target.wants/dbus.socket
removed /pub/pungi/work/x86_64/yumroot/installroot//lib/systemd/system/messagebus.service
removed /pub/pungi/work/x86_64/yumroot/installroot//lib/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/dbus.service
removed /pub/pungi/work/x86_64/yumroot/installroot//lib/systemd/system/sockets.target.wants/dbus.socket

Those are the files that get actually removed, not the whole package.
But I guess /var/run/dbus directory is not even in the dbus package. I log all the paths I remove and there is no /var/run/dbus* in the logs. So this means the directory was not created at all.

We create it manually in buildinstall. So looks like I'll have to do that.

Fixed in lorax-0.4-1
Comment 6 James Laska 2011-02-08 18:28:49 UTC 
Tested and confirmed fix using lorax-0.3-3.fc15 (http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=11346)
Comment 7 Adam Williamson 2011-02-11 08:35:57 UTC 
Leaving notes on proposed blockers as I won't be at the meeting tomorrow most
likely:

Obvious +1 blocker.
Comment 8 Dennis Gilmore 2011-02-11 18:41:10 UTC 
this probably should be fixed in dbus  and have it provide /var/run/dbus/ since it needs it.
Comment 9 Robyn Bergeron 2011-02-11 19:45:02 UTC 
Per 2011-02-11 Alpha blocker meeting - 
# AGREED: 673907 accepted as F15Alpha blocker as this impacts all installs
# clumens and dgilmore reviewing whether an additional/different fix is required
Comment 10 James Laska 2011-02-15 18:59:07 UTC 
Confirmed fixed in anaconda-15.20
Comment 11 James Laska 2011-02-18 18:24:54 UTC
