'systemctl --user status' returns 'Failed to get D-Bus connection'

Basically I am trying to run a user session of systemd. Up to now, this worked without doing the additional parts from the systemd/User wiki-page. Now it returns 'Failed to get D-Bus connection: No such file or directory' or 'Failed to read server status: Input/output error' (the first one when I try it from the TTY, the second one from within xfce / urxvtc). Even after doing the wiki-page, it still returns the two error messages.
My current 'systemctl status':

Systemctl error: Failed to get D-Bus connection

Problem migrating server to pure systemd. Unable to start stop or restart any of my enabled services. Every command to systemctl except enable/disable results in:
"Failed to get D-Bus connection: No connection to service manager."
I dunno why enable/disable would work but not status, etc...
Quick note on my environment:
Arch installed on my remote server hosted by linode.com
So, my only access is remote ssh. This is purely a webserver/mailserver type box.
Here's what I did so far:
1) installed systemd and depys according to this guide https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Systemd
2) enabled all services from my rc.conf DAEMONS according to this guide: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Daemons_List
systemctl enable {foo}.service
3) removed initscripts with
pacman -R initscripts
and installed systemd-sysvcompat w/
pacman -S systemd-sysvcompat
4) rebooted
5) I can confirm that "cat /proc/1/comm" does in fact output "systemd"
Command " sudo ps aux | grep dbus " gives me:

Solved! Had to update kernel. Solution was in /var/log/kernel.log all along:
Nov 27 14:43:56 xxxx kernel: systemd[1]: CONFIG_CGROUPS was not set when your kernel was compiled. Systems without control groups are not supported. We will now sleep for 10s, and then continue boot-up. Expect breakage and please do not file bugs. Instead fix your kernel and enable CONFIG_CGROUPS. Consult http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/cgroups-vs-cgroups.html for more information.
systemd man page that: "systemd uses control groups to effectively keep track of processes. Control group information is maintained in the kernel, and is accessible via the file system hierarchy (beneath /sys/fs/cgroup/systemd/)" I ran the command
findmnt | grep /sys/fs/cgroup
but it returns an empty result...
I did not see kernel version as a requirement anywhere in docs...
To check your kernal version use command:
uname -r
From the main page https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Systemd
systemd is a system and service manager for Linux that ... uses socket and D-Bus activation for starting services ... keeps track of processes using Linux control groups ...
From wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cgroups
cgroups (control groups) is a Linux kernel feature to that was started in 2007 ... and merged to kernel version 2.6.24 ...
I had problems w/ kernel 2.6.39 which turned out to be a deprecated kernal on my linode. My box had like 300+ days of uptime and never had a need to reboot before the change to systemd. Lucky for me, linode made it stupid easy to update the kernel and i was back on track. systemd is cool. worth the journey. thanks!

Failed to get d-bus connection

i just did a fresh install, following the installation guide. after reboot, i get to the grub menu, then start linux.
after that i get the error message
systemd-cgroups-agent(154): failed to get d-bus connection: faile (sic!)
this message appears several times, then
welcome to emergency mode (...)
after login nothing works, i cannot even reboot, only get d-bus errors. have to hard reset the computer. fallback is the same. anyone know whats wrong?

@ubunchu, if the system is unusable after login, how is the OP supposed to issue your suggested command?
The part of ubunchu's response that makes the most sense to me is the chroot part, as it involves booting from live media to inspect. I don't think you actually have to chroot to do this, but see about inspecting the journal from the live media. Mount the rootfs (and var if applicable), then use journalctl's --directory= argument to point it to your mounted system's journal. Otherwise, you could chroot into the system and use journalctl there. But I am not sure if journalctl requires a running dbus. If it does, you don't be able to see the journal. (Okay, I just tested this, and it seems you can run journalctl from a chroot)

Systemd-cgroups-agent[625]: Failed to get D-Bus connection

On shutdown, or reboot this error appears:
systemd-cgroups-agent[625]: Failed to get D-Bus connection: Failed to connect to socket /org/freedesktop/systemd1/private: Connection refused
system is:
Linux desktop 3.9.2-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Sat May 11 21:11:14 CEST 2013 i686 GNU/Linux
XFCE4 with SLIM

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1273875

[SOLVED] systemd --user: "Failed to open private bus connection:"

EDIT: The solution was to set DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS, as suggested by gtmanfred in irc. By putting the following before executing systemd --user, the error vanished:
export DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=/run/user/$(id -u)/dbus/user_bus_socket
===================
Original problem:
Everything on my box appears to be working ok, but I'm getting this error consistently in tty1 and at the top of journalctl (as user) whenever I start systemd --user:
systemd[3975]: Failed to open private bus connection: Unable to autolaunch a dbus-daemon without a $DISPLAY for X11
I roughly have my system setup per this wiki section https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sy … ur_Session. I start systemd --user via a small script in my .bash_profile. Here are my relevant dbus{.service,socket} files, from the package user-session-units mentioned in the wiki: (Edit: xorg is started through xorg-launch-helper, also from that wiki page) Edit2: I'm not using autologin. I noticed that under the autologin section of that page, DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS is set to some path. In my setup that isn't set anywhere, so I may try to copy that later but I don't have time to play with it right now. Will post back later.

I'm not sure what the error even means or how to go about debugging it. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Add-on Status is Failed, but Add-on is connected

Good Day!
Hi Experts,
I had created an installer for my Add-on for the client. This is a project from SAP B1 Studio.
SAP B1 version is 9.0 PL11.
1. The add-on is running ok in Debug Mode.
2. I've successfully created an ARD File.
3. Successfully installed ARD File.
4. On Add-on Manager, when I tried to click Start, the add-on says Incorrect Connection String for Add-on. Even if the Status is Failed, the Add-on still executes. It still displays the custom form, the events, CFL etc.
I've used the SAPBouicom.Dll in my debug folder, and I ensured the latest SAP B1 Studio and DI API is installed (PL11). I even removed the old files and reinstalled but the same result appears.
Your help is greatly appreciated in this matter.

i had already a Debug Code in my Environment.
Dim sConnectionString As String
SboGuiApi = New SAPbouiCOM.SboGuiApi
sConnectionString = Environment.GetCommandLineArgs.GetValue(1).ToString
                Try
                    SboGuiApi.Connect(sConnectionString)
                    ' Causes an Error Here but if I don't terminate the Add-on here, the Add-on will still run
                Catch ex As Exception
                         'System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show("No SAP Business One Application was found")
                         'End
                    Try
SBO_Application = SboGuiApi.GetApplication()

TCS 3 FrameMaker DItamap import returns "Failed to get any FrameMaker document from"

Hi,
I recently aquired the TCS 3 and I am trying to build a help project using a ditamap. I was able to do this once, but I ended up scrapping the project fbacause FrameMaker ran out of memory when I tried to update the project.
Now, I see this error when I try to import or link my ditamap to a new project.
I followed the steps as shown in the Robohelp docs.
Any thoughts on things I need to do to fix this.
RH 9 did crash once, could there be some garbage cleanup I need to do?
Is there other info I can pass on that may help?

OK. Is there a Best Practices approach to the procedure? And yes, I am assuming that it will be more complicated than just using the Windows uninstall function.

Why does Firefox 32.0 keep prompting me to update, then failing to get past the "connecting to update server" when I click the "update now" button?

Happens with annoying frequency. The fresh install of 32.0 is barely a month old but this has been happening since a few days afterwards. I have let the update window run for up to 20 minutes. Nothing happened, ever. Apparently it never actually connects. Nor will it update automagically when I click on the "About" line on the Firefox menu bar dropdown.

If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then best is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox application and save the disk image file to the desktop
*Firefox 32.0.3: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
*Trash the current Firefox application (open the Applications folder in the Finder and drag the Firefox application to the Trash) to do a clean (re)install
*Install the new version that you have downloaded
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Installing+Firefox+on+Mac
Your personal data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox profile folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data when you uninstall and (re)install Firefox.

[SOLVED]dbus and systemd: "systemctl --user" gets "Connection refused"

Hi,
I want to enable some systemd user service. Here is what I get
$ LANG=C systemctl --user
Failed to get D-Bus connection: Connection refused
$ echo $DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS
unix:abstract=/tmp/dbus-RboLZS2wF3,guid=feb8bd85248906d12a826acd54e3c4ad
I don't believe I've ever touched dbus, so I'm a bit lost. There's the following line in my ~/.xinitrc:
exec dbus-launch xmonad
Seems like I'm not the only one with trouble on that topic, but I could not solve my problem.

Xbmc user from XBMC package unable to run systemctl --user

I'm posting this in multimedia rathar than another section as this appears to be an issue with the 'xbmc' user installed as part of the Arch xbmc package from pacman.
When logged in at the xbmc user (either via sudo su - xbmc, or direct login after setting a pssword for the user), when I attempt to run any systemctl --user <command> I get the following error:
~]$ whoami && systemctl --user status dbus
xbmc
Failed to get D-Bus connection: Connection refused
But I can run non --user commands with no problem:
~]$ whoami && systemctl status dbus
xbmc
● dbus.service - D-Bus System Message Bus

└─265 /usr/bin/dbus-daemon --system --address=systemd: --nofork --nopidfile --systemd-activation
Also, other "normal" users (ones not created by a package, such as my own user) do not have this problem:
~]$ whoami && systemctl --user status dbus
sylverpyro
● dbus.service
Loaded: not-found (Reason: No such file or directory)
Active: inactive (dead)
the reason this is an issue is until very recently the btsync package from AUR used btsync@<username> unit files to run the service for the specified user. With those unit files now depricated in systemd, I need to be able to run systemctl --user commands to enable the service correctly, but I just end up with a the ablove D-Bus error:
~]$ whoami && systemctl --user start btsync
xbmc
Failed to get D-Bus connection: Connection refused
Originally I thought it may be because the D-Bus session wasn't getting passed to the user properly, however even setting up the D-Bus session manually doesn't get me very far:
~]$ whoami && dbus-launch
xbmc
DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=unix:abstract=/tmp/dbus-A4VaDZXDOu,guid=9c85fdad1bcc90f8e1d5f52753eea211

~]$ export DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=unix:abstract=/tmp/dbus-A4VaDZXDOu,guid=9c85fdad1bcc90f8e1d5f52753eea211
~]$ whoami && systemctl --user start btsync
xbmc
Failed to start btsync.service: Process org.freedesktop.systemd1 exited with status 1
Is there a permission, group, or UID restriction somewhere that I am missing or unaware of that prevents certain users from running systemctl --user commands?

Used the following commands, it deleted the user and allowed me import user from LDAP
run sql select userid, pkid from enduser where userid = 'pjon'
run sql delete FROM enduserappservermap WHERE fkenduser='745c067f-767c-459d-b2f1-6e88bbad915e'

Hi,
Can you please check the 'deleted' and 'sync issues' folder that shows up in the bottom left of the Story screen. Just click on these folders to see the list of documents. If your file is present in any of them, you can directly recover.
From deleted folder you can just click on the document's options (a triangle shows up when you hover on the document) and click on the triangle and then restore to a project.
If its in sync issues folder, you can delete the document (deletion will just move the document to the deleted folder mentioned above) and then go to deleted folder to restore the document.
If you still face any issue please let us know.
thanks
Sandeep

How to restrict manual setting of User Status?

Hi,
I have created an User Profile where a particular User Status is "set" based on the Business Transaction "Release".
However, we are also allowed to set this User Status manually without carrying out the Business Transaction "Release".
How do I restrict manual setting of those User Statuses that are "set" based on a Business Transaction?
Raj

Pete,
I did read that post. But it is about providing authorisation to set a Status for an User.
The case I am referring is, an User Status is auto set by a Bus. Trans Release. But I am also permitted to set the status transition manually. This way, Users tend to skip Releasing the Service Order. This is affecting upstream processes.
Is there a way where we can restrict manual setting of User Statuses that have to be normally auto set by Bus. Transactions?
Raj
