Description Pacho Ramos 2010-02-13 18:10:21 UTC 
We are suffering this since some time:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=302727

I have been searching and have found similar bug reports on different distributions, but I still don't know who is the culprit :-(

This is the error we get when trying to browse files:
"Error: Method "CreateBluetoothSession" with signature "ss" on interface
"org.openobex.Manager" doesn't exist"

and this is what we have installed:
obexd-0.18 (with 0.21 we get the same problem)
bluez-4.60
gnome-bluetooth-2.28.6
openobex-1.5

Feel free to ask me for any information you need.

Thanks a lot for your help

1) You need obex-data-server installed
2) This is a gvfs bug, not a gnome-bluetooth one
Comment 2 Pacho Ramos 2010-02-17 16:57:08 UTC 
But, if this is a gvfs bug, why did you close this once it's reassigned to proper product? 

Also, seems that obex-data-server and obexd should be installed toghether for getting full functionality (I mean, "send to" and "browsing"), or have I misunderstood anything?

Thanks a lot

It's a gvfs bug inso that, you should have filed it against gvfs. It's not a bug, you didn't install obex-data-server, or didn't install it properly.

Yes, they should both be installed.

Ah, OK, for some reason I wrongly thought that obex-data-server should be replaced by obexd and, then, gvfs should try to use obexd instead

Then, it's our (Gentoo) problem, for some reason we prevent having both installed at the same time since obexd was added to the tree, I will investigate that problem downstream

Thanks a lot for the info, it's highly appreciated :-)
