(TRASH) dbus problem....cant login to gui-(TRASH)

ok...so I get this error on startup
failed to start message bus Error in file /etc/dbus-1/system.d/gdm.conf line 1 column 16 not well formed
I have xfce4, dbus, hal, gamin, gdm, and all the xf86-input-synaptic and such all freshly installed on this laptop...
when I startxfce4 it opens but no keyboard or mouse.... am I missing something? last time I did this all I needed was the xf86 drivers and such and it worked fine.
Could I have installed hal or gdm wrong?
When I tried to gdm from the command line I get:
/usr/sbin/gdm line1: syntax error near unexpected token '('
/usr/sbin/gdm line 1: 'n tfds_in_quene (1:2)'

I use xorg... Hal (being tied to dbus) is not starting and giving me this error:

Another reason I hate gdm
Maybe try slim?

Sorry that this doesn't directly solve your problem. I just thought of a suggestion
Also, reinstalling them never hurt. Maybe run:
pacman -S hal
pacman -S dbus
pacman -S gdm

    Then you either need to:
    1) Sign up for Creative Cloud so you can build a Single Edition app. Be warned though: this approach will no longer be valid as of May 1st when we retire support for Single Edition in Creative Cloud, and Single Edition apps are only on iPad devices.
    2) Sign up for a full DPS license. You can request pricing information by filling in Adobe | Request for consultation.

    Hi, I cant login to the facebook app on my iphone 5 ios 6.0.2.  I keep getting an error message saying 'There was an error logging in using single sign on' when im asked to log in again i get a 'session expired' message.  This only started happening yesterday. Anyone else having this problem? Thanks.

    I am having the same problem and took the following steps to mitigate it to no avail.
    1. I deleted the Facebook app on the phone and turned off Facebook in the iPhone's system-wide settings.
    2. I re-enabled Facebook in the iPhone's system-wide settings and reinstalled the Facebook app and logged in again. It worked. For about an hour.
    3. I completely restored the phone to a previous backup (before the problems started) and reenabled Facebook .... reinstalled the app.... and now it works intermittenly. But it hasn't worked in about 12 hours now (just tried a few minutes ago).
    Please advise.

    Hi Philipp,
    have you already logged in as you say you have looked at SMLT ?
    I checked SMLT - German is installed I set profile parameter zcsa/installed_languages = DE
    What does the system log tell you - sm21 - or from the file SLOGJ on O/S file system ?

    Hi,
    check whether the listener process is up and running on server.
    Also check u have a valid tns entry in ur client software.
    u can check this with tnsping utility.
    Regards,
    X A H E E R..The OP said he was getting "ORA-01031: insufficient privileges".
    In order to get that message you have to have actually reached the database.
    If you have actually reached the database you can rule out any network/tns issues.
    A down listener or bad tnsnames entry could never result in a ora-01031. So checking listeners and tns entries is a waste of time for this problem.

  • Cant login using internet explorer 9 but can using...

    I cant login using internet explorer 9 but can using other browsers such as mozilla and google chrome on my laptop.
    The problem is only on my laptop as i can login on my desktop pc .
    I keep returning to the login page everytime I submit my details.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    You could try clearing cookies and cache - see here for how http://kb.wisc.edu/page.php?id=15141
    Can't think of much else I'm afraid - don't actually use IE (or windows) that much myself.

  • Clients cant login to the Adobe Viewer today

    Is there a problem with the Adobe Viewer on the iPad today? 2 of our clients cant login. They signed up
    thursday and today. My account works fine, but not the new users.
    Message in the login is like: "authentication failed"
    Need aswer soon, the clients is waiting.
    BR/H

    I am NOT aware of a general problem with logging in today.  I just tried to use my own accounts and they seem to function properly.  I tried accounts using non-Adobe credentials and using networks outside the Adobe firewall to make sure this was testing a customer type scenario.
    Have your customers previously been able to login? 
    As an experiment to confirm the validity of the credentials they are using, you could ask them to try logging directly into www.acrobat.com. This would be a good test if they already have an Acrobat.com account.

  • TS4348 After update to 10.8 cant login

    Hi anyone help after update max os i cant login, neither as guest.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, they may not work as described.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.  
    These steps are to be taken while booted in safe mode.
    Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects. 
    Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then copy it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands. 
    Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply. 
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways: 
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.) 
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens. 
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid. 
    When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign. 
    Step 1 
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
    for k in {,/S*}/L*/E*/{,.?}*.kext; do test -f "$k/Contents/Info.plist" && /usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c "Print :CFBundleIdentifier" "$_" | egrep -qv "apple|Accusys|ArcMSR|ATTO|CalDigit|HighPoint|hp-fax|JMicron|print|SoftRAID|stex" && echo $k; done | open -ef
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. If the command produced no output, the window will be empty. Post the contents of the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window), if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. You can then close the TextEdit window. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that. No typing is involved in this step.
    Step 2 
    Repeat with this line:
    { sudo defaults read com.apple.loginwindow LoginHook; echo; sudo crontab -l; }  2> /dev/null | open -ef
    This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which you do have to type. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. Type it carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. Heed that warning, but don't post it. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator. 
    Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step. 
    Step 3 
    Repeat with this line:
    { ls -A /e*/{cr,la,mach}* {,/}Lib*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts .la*; echo; crontab -l; } 2> /dev/null | open -ef
    Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting. 
    Step 4
    osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of login items' | open -ef
    Remember, Steps 1-4 are all copy-and-paste — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output. 
    You can then quit Terminal.

    Try holding down option instead. I would then goto Disk Utility from the Install disk and verify/repair disk permissions and verify/repair disk.

    If you're trying to reset PRAM, hold down option-command-p-r

  • Choosing between external and partner application and problem with login

    We have an application on Oracle App Server 10.1.3.3 and we have an OID server.
    I had taken this for granted that I should define the application as 'Partner Application' and not external application for single sign on.
    Now that we need the 'PASSWORD' retrieved by application, we are considering defining it as an external application.
    There are at least two problems I have encountered defining the application as external:
    1. 'pageConfig:serverDate' is among the login form's inputs in the login page, but I can't set it in orasso 'Edit External Applications' page
    2. After login using SSO as external application and when I click on the application's new link, the login page is shown with the username and password field filled, but I have to click on login button anyway (no automatic and invisible login).
    I will be very grateful if someone gives a general view on the differences between external and partner, whether in this case external has to be used or partner and finally give some comment on my specific problem with login button and manual login.
    Thank you

    Just some information :
    - The problem with LOGIN page exists. I don't have that problem with for example GMAIL when defined as external application, but with my applications in Oracle Application Server.
    - There is also another thing I don't understand. The link to external application is something like:
    javascript:open_jwindow('../ealogin?ID=76D4766','76');
    and couldn't be executed outside pls/orasso
    in other words we can't give that to our users, can we? They should login to orassso and see that?
    We don't want to involve them in Identity Management...
    Any help is appreciated....
