    facing problem when run , yakuake in Slackware

    Posts: 182
    in Slackware

    Hai,

    when running yakuake, I am getting error message,

    root@Slackware:~# yakuake

    (5160)/: KUniqueApplication: Cannot find the D-Bus session server: "Did not receive a reply.

    Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired,

    or the network connection was broken."

    (5159)/: KUniqueApplication: Pipe closed unexpectedly.

    previously it was running. The only difference is , now I am trying as normal user, where as previously I used as a root user.

    I tried with,

    chmod 0777 yakuake

    in /usr/bin directory.

    but, no luck. Even I tried as a root used [ as shown in first code ] , that time also getting the error.

    How can I solve this ? So far I can not find anything in google..

      That sounds like a permission issue for the user your are using, did you read http://slackware.mirrors.tds.net/pub/slackware/slackware64-current/Slackware-HOWTO to determine which groups your user should belong in?

      No. I did not read that.

      But before reading this post , I re-installed the application as root then rebooted the system , application is running now in normal user mode . [ before, rebooting I tried to run, but same error I got ] . Sounds silly, but I want that application hardly. So, just gone by this blind method.

      Since it is running now for the same conditions [ installing as root, running as normal user ] , I guess, there may be some other problem . Not sure. Because, on the same day, I got the message that my ALSA driver was not found in the bus. But, I will cross-check the user-group needed to run the application.

      But, shell is a kind of editor. Not going to use any critical resource until changing user mode to root. Then , why is this limitation [users, belongs to some particular group can only use ] is made ?

      If you keep having dbus error messages and the rights are correctly assigned then you may have installed a corrupt package or the dbus package my be installed in a bad sector of your disk.

      Check your error logs in /var/log to see if anything else is reporting weird to properly locate the cause.

      Well, if the apps is working fine now... there's no point in debugging it! ;)

      After, re-installation, did not get those. I checked the logs in /var/log . So many files and folders. I navigated. I found the yakuake, in recently updated package, latest removed package list. regarding Dbus error, I can not able to find more information.

      yeah, But, am sorry to all people. Without waiting for a considerable period of time, I just flushed and installed again . But, now digging more in /var/log .

      And as I mentioned in previous post, I got error with my ALSA sound driver too. Some, problem, after rebooting this too disappeared. I guess, the re-installation of yakuake also some un-necessary thing. After rebooting, it might also get worked.

      Got one more thing. If faced any problem with hardware/related to hardware, check for the same with rebooting too ...

      Thanks all.
