Hello,

An update.

Restored my Mac from a Time Machine backup then did the upgrade to 10.14.4 again. This time round I have not experienced any issues so far.

Regards
Tony

Hello,

Rather than cross post, I have opened a macports ticket

https://trac.macports.org/ticket/58274

Will update this end if I get a solution.

Hi Umberto,

Open a new thread and I will walk you through my setup and how I got it working before the upgrade. You can CC me in the new thread. Please don’t reply to this one unless specifically addressing the dbus, avahi issue etc that am experiencing.

Regards
Tony

So many “too”s.

Anyway I tried just now. I’m getting my usual error (“device […] is not configured”). So, again, unfortunately I cannot help you :/

Keep us updated.

Best

Hi Umberto,

I would suggest you start another thread with your particular issues so that we can separate it from mine. I will be glad to assist where I can.

Hi Tony,

Thank you.

Hi Tony.

Unfortunately I cannot help you, since I never had this error.
But I take the chance to ask you how did you installed sane-backends on macOS?
Umberto,

I use sane-backends via the Macports environment (https://www.macports.org<https://www.macports.org/>). I believe sane-backends should also be available via  Homebrew though I don’t use that environment (https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/sane-backends).

In my case its a simple command to have sane-backends installed

sudo port install sane-backends

Regards
Tony

Please, I really need it. And many people are in need too.

Thank you in advance

Hello,

I have an issue with sane on Mac OS. The setup was previously working (net) perfectly but yesterday after upgrading to Version 10.14.4 (18E226) (Mojave) xsane and scanimage are crashing immediately after being started with the following error.


Trying to taking the discussion back to the main issue…

I’m on macOS 10.14.4 (18E226) too. I installed sane-backends too (MacPorts). I’ll let you if I’m getting the same error too.

bash-3.2$ scanimage -L
dbus[57659]: Dynamic session lookup supported but failed: launchd did not provide a socket path, verify that org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist is loaded!

After setting up debug more information is provided.

bash-3.2$ SANE_DEBUG_NET=3 scanimage -L

No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different,
check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the
sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation
which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages).
[net] sane_exit: exiting
[net] sane_exit: finished.

Anyone come across this issue?

Regards
Tony
