I have a question. I have cross compiled dbus-0.93 and flashed the image in my hardware platform. Now when i run dbus-daemon --system it gives me an error

Failed to open connection to system message bus: Failed to connect to socket /usr/local/var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory

I am a bit confused here because you write that system_bus_socket is created when dbus-daemon is started. However in my case it is expecting the socket file to be present when I start dbus-daemon.

Can you please clarify how do i solve this problem?

You have to cross-compile dbus-1.0, and start dbus-daemon before executing hcid.

dbus-daemon --system

While cross-compiling dbus-1.0 and bluez-utils, pass the following parameters for the configure script.

--localstatedir=/var --sysconfdir=/etc

Once you do this, by default hcid will look for hcid.conf in /etc/bluetooth directory.

Warning. Take a backup of /etc/dbus-1 and /etc/bluetooth, because this will overwrite the previous config, which was already present in ur system.

Run make install for dbus, and u need not run make install for bluez-utils. U can directly copy the hcid.conf and blue-hcid.conf to /etc/bluetooth and /etc/dbus-1/system.d directory respectively.

Now, when u start dbus-daemon --system, it will create a system_bus_socket in /var/run/dbus and it will create a message.pid in /var/run/.

next, when u start hcid, u should not get problem.

Dear

I cross compile the bluez3.8 and try to setup the bluetooth in arm. I connect the arm with CSR BC03 with BCSP configuration. I am able to make the Bluez discoverable and try to pair bluez. however i found that there is no pin respond from Bluez. So i try to configure bluez using hcid.

> hcid -n -f /etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf

it return

hcid[481]: Can't connect to system message bus: Failed to connect to socket /usr/local/var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory
hcid[481]: Unable to get on D-Bus

My question
1. where can I found the missing file and what is that used for?
2. Is there any method to repsond the pin request other than using hcid

Regards
