Bugzilla – Bug 441677
Gnome Bluetooth OBEX issues.
Last modified: 2016-04-15 09:17:36 UTC
I have a Bluetooth mouse paired with this machine right now, but the ability to browse OBEX devices seems to be broken. "Error: Method "CreateBluetoothSession" with signature "sss" on interface "org.openobex.Manager" doesn't exist Please select another viewer and try again." Trying to connect to my Motorola v9m. I tried removing the device, and repairing it, but that has not helped. When I use the "Send files to device" option instead of the "Browse files on device" option, I get "Bluez DBus interface not available"
As of factory (11/10/2008), I can now browse and see what is on my phone. However, I still can't send any files to it, via either drag and drop while browsing the contents, or the "Send files to device" option. Send files to device: "Method "CreateBluetoothSession" with signature "ss" on interface "org.openobex.Manager" doesn't exist" Drag and drop: "Operation not supported by backend"
Do you have obex-data-server 0.4.1? This should solve that problem.
I do. However, since I last upgraded all the packages a few days ago, an updated version of that appears to be out, so I'll check back after I update everything.
After upgrading what appears to be labeled Beta 5, sending files is still broken with the same error message. I do, and I did have obex-data-server installed, latest version.
11.1b5 here I get "Obex Push file transfer unsupported" when trying to send files. Pairing worked without a problem...
As I discovered yesterday, I can browse my phone, but when I try to copy something from it, the connection between the two devices is lost, and then Nautilus just sits there like it's trying to copy, but unable to cancel. Killing nautilus fixes that issue, but that should not be needed.
I just tested this again (on beta5) and now I get the same Send files to device: "Method "CreateBluetoothSession" with signature "ss" on interface "org.openobex.Manager" doesn't exist" as mentioned before.
I have the same.
Yeah, this still exists in the latest factory updates.
With RC1 now (latest factory), I am able to browse my phone and copy files _from_ it. I still can not send files to it.
I fixed this by patching bluez-gnome with a patch from upstream (found via fedora). This is submitted to oS:F: submission #4092. The "can't write via nautilus" bug is known upstream and is not trivial to solve: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=519071
Is the fixed package still not built? It's not in factory at least
(In reply to comment #12 from Michael Monreal) > Is the fixed package still not built? It's not in factory at least https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=bluez-gnome&project=openSUSE%3AFactory It's there. So it's probably just not built yet.
