Description Chris Ricker 2003-09-08 16:55:50 UTC 
I get the following error when booting up, and also when upgrading from

bluez-utils-2.3-9

to

bluez-utils-2.3-12:

Can't open RFCOMM control socket: No such file or directory


It's coming from this part of the init script:

        if [ -x /usr/bin/rfcomm -a -f /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf ]; then
                /usr/bin/rfcomm -f /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf bind all
        fi

That appears to require a socket which isn't present on my system (probably b/c
I don't have bluetooth hardware)

I also see the following in dmesg once this error occurs:

request_module[bt-proto-3]: fork failed, errno 1
Comment 1 David Woodhouse 2003-09-08 23:18:54 UTC 
Well for cosmetic reasons I suppose the rfcomm tool could refrain from actually
opening its socket unless it needs to, but the modprobe shouldn't fail and there
shouldn't be any errors.

Bug #88859 seems to have recurred, but that isn't the problem in this case. It
looks like the kernel isn't even managing to run modprobe. Does it manage to
autoload any other modules?

Reassigning to kernel.
Comment 2 Chris Ricker 2003-09-09 13:28:49 UTC 
It autoloads other modules just fine....
Comment 3 Chris Ricker 2003-09-11 21:29:48 UTC 
I don't see this any more with kernel-2.4.22-1.2040.nptl from RHN
