Title: rhythmbox couldn't connect to configuration server
Post by: chrisb on March 16, 2011, 01:13:31 PM

When I start rhythmbox I get:

(rhythmbox:14385): Rhythmbox-
WARNING **: Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable
TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See http://projects.gnome.org/gconf/
 for information. (Details -  1: Failed to get connection to session: Error connecting: Connection refused)

Running rhythmbox as root works. Looks like some permission problem?

I don't see this error - do you have a mixture of python 2.6 and 2.7 extensions loaded?

Was dbus started prior to starting x?

I found the problem. For some reason /home/tc/.dbus had been created owned by root. I deleted that directory and re-ran rhythmbox, and it works fine now (.dbus got recreated owned by tc).
