No, it's not.

The error is actually here:

It told you:
"process 6585: Array or variant type requires that type struct be 
written, but begin_struct was written"

As you can see, you sent "r". You should pass the actual type of 
the structure you're trying to send. In this case, "(ss)".

By the way, you're using the D-Bus low-level API, but you have glib constructs 
in your code. Why aren't you using dbus-glib or, even better, gdbus?
