[Pkg-sssd-devel] Bug#994825: sssd fails to start as it can't start a dbus-server on /var/lib/sss/pipes/private/sbus-monitor

[Andre Klärner]

Package: sssd
Version: 2.5.2-2
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

After upgrading from 2.4.1-2 to 2.5.2-2 sssd.service fails to start.

The log reports the following:

Sep 21 10:07:22 kaylee systemd[1]: Starting System Security Services Daemon...
Sep 21 10:07:22 kaylee sssd[5856]: Starting with debug level = 0x0070

Sep 21 10:07:22 kaylee systemd[1]: Failed to start System Security Services Daemon.
Sep 21 10:07:22 kaylee systemd[1]: sssd.service: Scheduled restart job, restart counter is at 2.
Sep 21 10:07:22 kaylee systemd[1]: Stopped System Security Services Daemon.

Downgrading to 2.4.1-2 works (while clearing the caches), and upgrading
to 2.5.2-2 still shows the problem.

The redhat solution 344443 suggested starting sssd interactively (sssd -i -d7) to
see if the problem present itself there, which results in the sssd
starting, but still not working, but I now have no idea at what point it
is failing.

Best regards,
Andre
