Hi, I am running DBus ver 1.0.2 crosscompiled for ARM Linux which I was able to do it successfully . However when I start  the System Bus it complains with error Could not get password database information for UID of current process: User "?? ?" unknown or no memory to allocate password entry . We tried adding group and username to etc/group & /etc/passwd resp. sh-2.05b# ./dbus-daemon --system 903: Allocated slot 0 on allocator 0x5d0e0 total 1 slots allocated 1 used 903: listening on unix socket /opt/gnome/var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket abstract =0 903: Read 12 bytes from /dev/urandom 903: Initialized server on address unix:path=/opt/gnome/var/run/dbus/system_bus_ socket,guid=5007f3584591d143eb100b00000053ed 903: Adding a read watch on fd 3 using newly-set add watch function 903: Allocated slot 0 on allocator 0x5d084 total 1 slots allocated 1 used 903: No cache for UID 0 903: User ??? unknown Could not get password database information for UID of current process: User "?? ?" unknown or no memory to allocate password entry 903: Finalizing bus context 0x5e0b0 903: Removing all pre-existing watches 903: Setting watch fd 3 data to data = (nil) function = (nil) from data = (nil) function = (nil) 903: Freeing slot 0 on allocator 0x5d084 total 1 allocated 1 used 903: Freeing slot 0 on allocator 0x5d0e0 total 1 allocated 1 used Failed to start message bus: Could not get UID and GID for username "messagebus" ______________________________________________________________________
