I forgot to add that dbus is running, but the socket is in a different path: carcharias hal # netstat -l <snip> unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 120971 /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket
I have some more information. It seems that unmerging dbus, rm -rf'ing /etc/dbus-1, and re-merging dbus fixes the problem. After this, dbus uses /var/lib/dbus/system_bus_socket, instead of /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket. However, if the /etc/dbus-1/system.conf specifies /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket, _none_ of the current ebuilds in portage (0.23-r3, 0.23.2, 0.23.2-r1, 0.23.4, 0.23.4-r1, or 0.36.2) trigger an etc-update for the socket location. For example, with 0.36.2, even though the build reports: System bus socket: /var/lib/dbus/system_bus_socket System bus address: unix:path=/var/lib/dbus/system_bus_socket the installed system.conf specifies /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket, if that is what was there before. For clean installs, without any existing configuration, 0.23.4-r1 will use /var/run/... All other versions will use /var/lib/...
I was originally having the same problem, but I did the fix listed, and now I'm getting ... 17:31:23.750 [I] hald.c:637: Device probing completed 17:31:23.750 [I] hald_dbus.c:3058: entering 17:31:23.778 [E] hald_dbus.c:3076: dbus_bus_request_name(): Connection ":1.3" is not allowed to own the service "org.freedesktop.Hal" due to security policies in the configuration file 17:31:23.778 [I] util.c:1213: Killing helper with pid 11297 17:31:23.778 [I] util.c:1213: Killing helper with pid 11287 17:31:23.778 [I] util.c:1213: Killing helper with pid 11285
I did the fix (change /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket to /var/lib/dbus/system_bus_socket in system.conf) and everything went fine.

*** Bug 112186 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
For those with the original problem of hal not starting after upgrading dbus - could you please try with hal 0.5.4 and dbus 0.50-r1. The main problem seems to be, that dbus leaves the system socket around, and for some reason, recompiling hal, it still points to the old system socket, so you need to emerge dbus 0.50-r1, and etc-update, then restart dbus, and then stop it - and then emerge hal 0.5.4 again, and it will be fixed to point properly. Still researching the osspec problem - but that is in the other bug.
I've been having the same problem for some time now. I'm using dbus-0.36.2 and hal 0.5.4. At first, dbus refused to start because of wrong path info in /etc/dbus-1/system.conf. Fixing that, hald refuses to start due to 13:12:16.525 [E] hald_dbus.c:3065: dbus_bus_get(): Failed to connect to socket /var/dbus/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory I've looked everywhere and I don't see that /var/dbus/dbus/system_bus_socket path configured. maybe it's hardcoded (ewww!).

(In reply to comment #2) > For clean installs, without any existing configuration, 0.23.4-r1 will use > /var/run/... All other versions will use /var/lib/... not quite. a clean install of 0.50-r1 (as advised in comment #10) uses /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket. I've reemerged dbus and hal according to comment #10 and both dbus and hal start normally. I think the bug is just related to the dbus socket path and some hardcoded (?) paths in hal or perhaps hardcoded at compilation from the dbus configuration file. If for some reason one messes with the dbus socket path, hal ceases to find it.

Well, yes...but 0.50-r1 was released _after_ my trials. ;-)
