Description of problem: My log is being choked with these messages that apparently come out every four or five minutes (sometimes more often): Jan 24 04:10:01 zooty dbus-daemon: dbus[25228]: [system] Activating systemd to hand-off: service name='org.freedesktop.login1' unit='dbus-org.freedesktop.login1.service' Jan 24 04:10:01 zooty dbus[25228]: [system] Activating systemd to hand-off: service name='org.freedesktop.login1' unit='dbus-org.freedesktop.login1.service' Jan 24 04:10:26 zooty dbus-daemon: dbus[25228]: [system] Failed to activate service 'org.freedesktop.login1': timed out Jan 24 04:11:59 zooty dbus-daemon: dbus[25228]: [system] Activating systemd to hand-off: service name='org.freedesktop.login1' unit='dbus-org.freedesktop.login1.service' Jan 24 04:11:59 zooty dbus[25228]: [system] Activating systemd to hand-off: service name='org.freedesktop.login1' unit='dbus-org.freedesktop.login1.service' Jan 24 04:12:24 zooty dbus[25228]: [system] Failed to activate service 'org.freedesktop.login1': timed out Jan 24 04:12:24 zooty dbus-daemon: dbus[25228]: [system] Failed to activate service 'org.freedesktop.login1': timed out Jan 24 04:14:01 zooty dbus-daemon: dbus[25228]: [system] Activating systemd to hand-off: service name='org.freedesktop.login1' unit='dbus-org.freedesktop.login1.service' Jan 24 04:14:01 zooty dbus[25228]: [system] Activating systemd to hand-off: service name='org.freedesktop.login1' unit='dbus-org.freedesktop.login1.service' Jan 24 04:14:26 zooty dbus[25228]: [system] Failed to activate service 'org.freedesktop.login1': timed out ... This apparently starts following the cron.daily run. On a cleanly booted system the errors do not happen, but around 4am when cron.daily runs, this just immediately starts filling the log and doesn't stop. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): systemd-208-9.fc20.x86_64 How reproducible: every day Steps to Reproduce: 1.install fedora 20 2.wait for cron.daily to run 3. Actual results: systemd goes funny in the head Expected results: system doesn't get all screwy just because cron ran. Additional info: I suspect these are all related: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1057618 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1057614 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1043212
Maybe this is also related: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1057982 Did you run "yum update" or use yum to install new packages before this happened?
I'm almost completely convinced this is from the same fundamental cause as bug 1043212, just a different symptom cropping up.
