Dbus daemon Issues

[Donaldson Jeff]

Colin,


Thank you for the reply. I did have a system-local.conf file in that directory, but I was only setting the following:


<limit name="max_connections_per_user">256</limit>


I have since added the max_replies line as well and have rebooted the server. I'll see on Monday if this helps as we don't have any students here for me to test it. Thanks again for your help. It is much appreciated.


Regards,

Jeff

OK, I think you're running into a different limit.  You should be able
to override this by writing something like this to
/etc/dbus-1/system-local.conf:

  <!DOCTYPE busconfig PUBLIC
   "-//freedesktop//DTD D-BUS Bus Configuration 1.0//EN"
   "http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/dbus/1.0/busconfig.dtd">
  <busconfig>
    <limit name="max_replies_per_connection">4096</limit>
  </busconfig>

Beware of https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=81053 when doing
this, though; and you might need to get somebody who's more of a D-Bus
expert than I am to look into whether there's some deeper reason you're
hitting a limit on pending replies.
