[SOLVED] Error with cdemu

camerabambai · 03-12-2022, 03:48 PM

I'm on 15.0, cdemu from Slackbuilds repo.
I get this error if I try to start cdemu

Code:

cdemu load 0 ~/image.iso
ERROR: Failed to connect to CDEmu daemon: g-dbus-error-quark: Error calling StartServiceByName for net.sf.cdemu.CDEmuDaemon: Failed to execute program net.sf.cdemu.CDEmuDaemon: Permission denied (23)

even as root!

Code:

sudo cdemu load 0 ~/image.iso
ERROR: Failed to connect to CDEmu daemon: g-dbus-error-quark: Error calling StartServiceByName for net.sf.cdemu.CDEmuDaemon: Failed to execute program net.sf.cdemu.CDEmuDaemon: Permission denied (23)

How to solve?

I think the cdemu suite new version has something wrong about how the daemon is being loaded.
Before the update, it was just a matter of calling "/etc/rc.d/rc.cdemud start" in rc.local and
it would be available to all users.

It doesn't work like that anymore.
Sanvido posted a workaround that works

I created a .desktop file in "/etc/xdg/autostart" to run "cdemu-daemon start", that way all users can load it.
