RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Description of problem:
abrt-cli list failed due to can not connect dbus
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
abrt-2.1.11-50.el7.x86_64.rpm
RHEL-7.6-20180529.n.0 Server x86_64
How reproducible:
often
Steps to Reproduce:
1. execute "abrt-cli list" on RHEL-7.6-20180529.n.0
Or clone the beaker job https://beaker.engineering.redhat.com/recipes/5220849#task72985561
Actual results:
# abrt-cli list
Can't connect to system DBus: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.freedesktop.problems: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildSignaled: Process org.freedesktop.problems received signal 9
Expected results:
abrt-cli works
Additional info:
RHEL-7.5:
# uname -r
3.10.0-862.el7.x86_64
# abrt-cli list
The Autoreporting feature is disabled. Please consider enabling it by issuing
'abrt-auto-reporting enabled' as a user with root privileges
RHEL-7.6:
# uname -r
3.10.0-915.el7.x86_64
# abrt-cli list
Can't connect to system DBus: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.freedesktop.problems: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildSignaled: Process org.freedesktop.problems received signal 9
So it is a regression, setting accordingly.
But I tried updating abrt and abrt-cli on RHEL-7.5 to the ones on RHEL-7.6 and the result is the same (work on 7.5, fails on 7.6), so probably not an abrt regression. Not sure what cased it though, so leaving it to abrt. Please investigate and change component if needed.
versions tested on RHEL 7.5 / 7.6:
abrt-2.1.11-51.el7
abrt-cli-2.1.11-51.el7
Note: 'abrt-auto-reporting enabled' results in the same, just without the warning on 7.5.
