Got home, fired up App Manager to see that beta8 was out. Downloaded it and installed.

Says it's loading, load meter jumps, then drops, and nothing happens. Reboot...nothing. Canola2 Cleanup...reboot...reinstall...same thing.

Load from command line as root: canolad start -vv

process 2044: D-Bus library appears to be incorrectly set up; failed to read machine uuid: Failed to open "/var/lib/dbus/machine-id": No such file or directory
See the manual page for dbus -uuidgen to correct this issue.
D-Bus not built with -rdynamic so unable to print a backtrace
Aborted

checked to see if machine-id was there...it was not, so I ran this:

dbus-uuidgen > /var/lib/dbus/machine-id

Reran canolad start -vv

SHUTDOWN

that's all I got.

Anybody? Anything?

Micro : can you try doing the cleanup procedure and reinstalling to see what happens?

Also : can you provide more information about : Device, firmware and your previous setup (repositories that you have, applications installed etc ) ?

Cheers,

Marcelo

hi,

Can you try first this (suggested by adriano):

(correcting myself : can you also make sure you delete the previous created id )

dbus-uuidgen --ensure

Would this help you?

Cheers,

Marcelo

Hi Micro,

Yeah, I figured out that. So you are with Bora? (os 2007 ) ? and looks that you have some devel repos.

We will try to replicate the bug, but in our tests (clean installs + previous installed in all devices / all versions we didn't face this error once ) : /

thanks for the feedback... I will see if I can get more help to you.

Can you try deleting the machine id and the command I sent you ?

Hei dude,

Can you enter the IRC channel ( #canola ) on irc.freenode.net ?

Adriano is going to try to find out the problem and maybe help solving it

OK, removed the previous machine-id, ran with --ensure, and still have nothing

micrometer | # 8 | 2008-04-05, 01:45 | Report

Actually, I'm running 2008, but I'm out of time tonight. I'll check back tomorrow and see if you still need my beta testing powers. :-)

Thanks for the help though.

Marcelo, Canola acts exactly the same (starts then dies without any message) when python-launcher is installed.

bongo | # 10 | 2008-04-05, 11:34 | Report

same here
works again without python-launcher
