Talk:D-Bus
From Openmoko
if i use the following python code:
#!/usr/bin/env python import dbus bus = dbus.SessionBus() proxy = bus.get_object("org.freesmartphone.ogsmd","/org/freesmartphone/GSM/Device") interface = dbus.Interface(proxy, "org.freesmartphone.GSM.Call") interface.Initiate("12345","voice")
it get the following error
root@om-gta02:~# dbus-launch python my_dialer.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "my_dialer.py", line 4, in <module> proxy = bus.get_object("org.freesmartphone.ogsmd","/org/freesmartphone/GSM/Device") File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/dbus/bus.py", line 244, in get_object follow_name_owner_changes=follow_name_owner_changes) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/dbus/proxies.py", line 241, in __init__ self._named_service = conn.activate_name_owner(bus_name) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/dbus/bus.py", line 183, in activate_name_owner self.start_service_by_name(bus_name) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/dbus/bus.py", line 281, in start_service_by_name 'su', (bus_name, flags))) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/dbus/connection.py", line 622, in call_blocking message, timeout) dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freesmartphone.ogsmd was not provided by any .service files
replace bus = dbus.SessionBus() by bus = dbus.SystemBus() and it should work. It's now fixed on the main page thanks for spotting this(I thought it was me)
