services-admin does not start :S


I don't know how exactly, but somehow my services-admin (System -> Administration -> Services) doesn't start anymore.. I turned a few services off, and suddenly the application crashed and now I can't start it anymore... it says: "You are not allowed to access the system configuration", even if i start it in a root console. The errorlog that i get is:
Code:
GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager:
Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed.

(services-admin:4822): Liboobs-WARNING **: Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory
4822: arguments to dbus_connection_add_filter() were incorrect, assertion "connection != NULL" failed in file dbus-connection.c line 4379.
This is normally a bug in some application using the D-Bus library.
4822: arguments to dbus_connection_send_with_reply_and_block() were incorrect, assertion "connection != NULL" failed in file dbus-connection.c line 2873.
This is normally a bug in some application using the D-Bus library.

(services-admin:4822): Liboobs-CRITICAL **: run_message: assertion `oobs_session_get_connected (priv->session)' failed
4822: arguments to dbus_connection_send_with_reply_and_block() were incorrect, assertion "connection != NULL" failed in file dbus-connection.c line 2873.
This is normally a bug in some application using the D-Bus library.
Who can help me solve this problem? It seems to me that i turned off a service that is required to run services-admin itself, but i don't know how to restart that service (and which service it is). Somehow I also get an HAL error when i startup gnome since this problem. Please help!

You killed DBus which is an IPC server required for a lot of stuff. Try running /etc/init.d/dbus start to start DBus and then fire up the app. Make sure you enable it again

Thanks, but I can't start it. The console says "bash: dbus: command not found", but I can see the file in the /etc/init.d/ folder, so it is there. What to do now?

Never mind i fixed the problem by reinstalling dbus. After that, i could start it. Thanks for the solution!
