dbus start problems

Reported by: olaf@… Owned by: macports-tickets@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 1.7.0
Keywords: dbus gnucash Cc: olaf@…
Port: dbus

Description

I'm on 10.4.11/Intel. It's a fresh install of macports. I've installed 

$ port installed dbus
The following ports are currently installed:
  dbus @1.2.12_4 (active)


$ cat /opt/local/etc/macports/variants.conf 
+no_static +no_x11 -x11 +quartz

When I load dbus 

sudo launchctl   load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.dbus.plist

I get in the console

Maybe that's why gnucash doesn't start on my computer.

That's no longer the correct way to start dbus. Instead do 'launchctl load /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist' WITHOUT the 'sudo' at the beginning.

Replying to illogic-al@…:

That's no longer the correct way to start dbus. Instead do 'launchctl load /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist' WITHOUT the 'sudo' at the beginning.

At least that's been told during the installation: 

--->  Creating launchd control script
###########################################################
# A startup item has been generated that will aid in
# starting dbus with launchd. It is disabled
# by default. Execute the following command to start it,
# and to cause it to launch at startup:
#
# sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.dbus.plist
###########################################################
--->  Installing dbus @1.2.12_4
--->  Activating dbus @1.2.12_4
##############################################################################
# It is absolutely necessary for dbus enabled programs to work to execute
#
# launchctl load /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist
#
# once for every user. Don't use 'sudo', else it will work only for root!
# You also have to unload it before deactivating/uninstalling this software!
