Description Corrado Gizzi 2007-02-05 21:14:25 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
Trying to mount a trackerfs using trackerfs.py doesn't work.
The output giving the command as root with the --tag or --search option is the following:

Traceback (most recent call last):

+ Trace 108282

  • File "/usr/bin/trackerfs.py", line 253 in ? 
    fs = TrackerFs()
  • File "/usr/bin/trackerfs.py", line 58 in __init__ 
    TrackerClient.__init__(self)
  • File "/usr/bin/trackerfs.py", line 19 in __init__ 
    bus = dbus.SessionBus()
  • File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.4/dbus/_dbus.py", line 266 in __new__ 
    return Bus.__new__(cls, Bus.TYPE_SESSION, use_default_mainloop, private)
  • File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.4/dbus/_dbus.py", line 99 in __new__ 
    bus._connection = dbus_bindings.bus_get(bus_type, private)
  • File "dbus_bindings.pyx", line 1692 in dbus_bindings.bus_get
dbus_bindings.DBusException: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken. 

The same command given as normal user outputs the following:

2007-02-05 21:40:18,960 - trackerfs - DEBUG - mountpoint: '/home/pappageno/Recover'
2007-02-05 21:40:18,960 - trackerfs - DEBUG - Use Search
2007-02-05 21:40:20,085 - trackerfs - DEBUG - Refresh Filelist
fuse: failed to exec fusermount: Permission denied
python: fuse_opt.c:67: fuse_opt_insert_arg: Assertion `pos <= args->argc' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)



Steps to reproduce:
1. sudo python trackerfs.py /media/foo --tag=foo
2. sudo python trackerfs.py /media/foo --search=foo
3. python trackerfs.py ~/foo --tag=foo
4. python trackerfs.py ~/foo --search=foo


Actual results:
The Fs it's not mounted and you get the output pasted above

Expected results:
The Fs should be mounted containing the files tagged as specified with the --tag option

Does this happen every time?
Yes

Comment 2 Jürg Billeter 2010-03-03 15:54:05 UTC 
trackerfs has been removed from the source tree as it wasn't maintained (it was still using the 0.6.x API).
