Maybe you haven#t configured dbus for socket activation, and
dbus-daemon replaces the sockets already created or so?

Also, /var/run is an old name for /run, and should nowadays just be a
symlink. Is it possible that symlink is missing for you?

Thanks.
my service runs during early bootup.
one intermittent issue I am seeing is that my service fails in
dbus_bus_get_private() with error:

 07:45:19 : dbus_bus_get_private() failed with error: Failed to
connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or
directory


dbus service started at 07:44:34  and my service started at  07:45:19
which is 45 sec after dbus and also I see
/var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket present before this error.

not sure why dbus API is failing even though the socket is present.
So am I missing to add any dependency in my service file ?

Regular system services do not have to declare any explicit dependency
on D-Bus, as D-Bus is always and unconditionally available in the later
boot phase (where regular services are started) and during runtime.

If your service runs during the early boot phase however (i.e. before
basic.target is reached, meaning your service has
DefaultDependencies=no set), then you do need an explicit dependency,
but should only specify it as After=dbus.socket +
Requires=dbus.socket (i.e. on the socket rather than the service).

If you don't know whether your service is an early or late boot
service then it's almost certainly a late boot service.

Please ignore anything related to kdbus in the source, this is
supported no longer, and does not apply to regular D-Bus.

[systemd-devel] how to correctly specify dependency on dbus

2017-04-25 Thread prashantkumar dhotre 
Hi
For my service,  I have:

# cat my.service
[Unit]
Description=My Service
After=dbus.service
Requires=dbus.service
...
...

Some time i see that my service fails to get dbus connection
(dbus_bus_get_private() fails without any error msg).
one possibility i think is that dbus is not fully initialized.
From above service file config, i understand when i start my service,
dbus service is started 1st and then my service.
but i am not sure if my service start step is delayed until dbus is
fully up , initialized and running and ready to accept conections.
is there a way to specify this in my service file.

For ex, for systemd-networkd,service, i see it specify  like :

# On kdbus systems we pull in the busname explicitly, because it
# carries policy that allows the daemon to acquire its name.
Wants=org.freedesktop.network1.busname
After=org.freedesktop.network1.busname


Can i use same (specifying After/Wants on a dbus name) ?
Appreciate your help on this.
Thanks
