Problem description: -------------------- When i tried to configure network using 'system-config-network', caught exception as below: Component: system-config-network Version: 1.5.7 Summary: TB3e72b2d7 bus.py:125:__new__:DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.FileNotFound: Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/system-config-network-tui", line 277, in <module> plist = getProfileList() File "/usr/share/system-config-network/netconfpkg/NCProfileList.py", line 651, in getProfileList __PFList.load() File "/usr/share/system-config-network/netconfpkg/NCProfileList.py", line 88, in load self.loadprof(pr, profdir) File "/usr/share/system-config-network/netconfpkg/NCProfileList.py", line 101, in loadprof devicelist = NCDeviceList.getDeviceList() File "/usr/share/system-config-network/netconfpkg/NCDeviceList.py", line 318, in getDeviceList __DVList.load() File "/usr/share/system-config-network/netconfpkg/NCDeviceList.py", line 78, in load hwlist = NCHardwareList.getHardwareList() File "/usr/share/system-config-network/netconfpkg/NCHardwareList.py", line 759, in getHardwareList __HWList.load() File "/usr/share/system-config-network/netconfpkg/NCHardwareList.py", line 603, in load self.updateFromSystem() File "/usr/share/system-config-network/netconfpkg/NCHardwareList.py", line 483, in updateFromSystem self.updateFromHal(hdellist) File "/usr/share/system-config-network/netconfpkg/NCHardwareList.py", line 447, in updateFromHal hal = NCBackendHal.NCBackendHal() File "/usr/share/system-config-network/netconfpkg/NCBackendHal.py", line 30, in __init__ self._dbusBus = dbus.SystemBus() File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/dbus/_dbus.py", line 200, in __new__ private=private) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/dbus/_dbus.py", line 106, in __new__ bus = BusConnection.__new__(subclass, bus_type, mainloop=mainloop) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/dbus/bus.py", line 125, in __new__ bus = cls._new_for_bus(address_or_type, mainloop=mainloop) DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.FileNotFound: Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory Local variables in innermost frame: mainloop: None address_or_type: 1 cls: <class 'dbus._dbus.SystemBus'> ==================================================================================== uname -a: --------- Linux p520b.in.ibm.com 2.6.25-14.fc9.ppc64 #1 SMP Thu May 1 05:49:24 EDT 2008 ppc64 ppc64 ppc64 GNU/Linux Hardware Environment -------------------- Machine type (p650, x235, SF2, etc.):p520 Cpu type (Power4, Power5, IA-64, etc.):Power5 Is this reproducible? - Yes --------------------- Describe the steps: ------------------- ->After installation, execute system-config-network on command prompt. You can catch exception. ================================================== Does /etc/init.d/messagebus status show that the dbus daemon is running? If not, can you start the messagebus service to ensure it creates the socket and see if that is the actual cause for this problem? ================================================== Immediately after installation, probably 'dmessage bus' is not running and i am seeing this issue. But after a reboot i am not seeing this issue. And, this issue is in fedora 9 GA.
I checked this issue in freshly installed machine with F10 and did not find any errors. Could see dbus-demon running. We can close this bug.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 9. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '9'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 9 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-07-10. Fedora 9 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
