Re: [Bluez-users] hcid not working - bluez 3.9

[Sumeet VERMA <sumeet.verma@st.com>]

Hi Marcel,
How would I know that the system bus is up and running? Basically I think
the problem is the socket system_bus_socket is created in /var/run/dbus
instead of /usr/local/var/run/dbus.

I tried to configure the dbus-0.61 package with the following string

./configure --prefix=/usr/local --disable-gtk --disable-selinux
--with-session-socket-dir=/usr/local/var/run/dbus
--with-dbus-user=messagebus --with-test-socket-dir=/usr/local/var/run/dbus 
But still it doesn't work.

Any pointers?

Regards,

Sumeet

the session bus is not the same as the system bus. You need a running system
bus for hcid. And normally your distribution ensures that it is setup
correctly.
