By the way, the only way to protect yourself from irritative calls and spy devices is to use Phone Jammer

As I said, try running (obex-data-server -n), then you will get all debug output and you might see what’s going wrong. DBus timeout message can mean many things, so I can’t make a conclusion based on this information. If you discover a bug, please use the bugtracker (bugs.muiline.com) and if you just want to consult someone about the problems you are having, better use IRC (#ods on Freenode).

Thank you.

But I am currently facing some other problem!!

I am trying to send a method “SendFile” through “dbus_g_proxy_call”.

dbus_g_proxy_call(proxy,
“SendFile”,
&error,
G_TYPE_STRING,
filename,
G_TYPE_INVALID, G_TYPE_INVALID);

But this function returns a FALSE.
And the “error” variable is filled with error message, which reads- “Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus)”.

I am not able to send any files!!!

Does anybody know why this is happening? Am I missing any configuration? Please give your inputs.

Thank you

You can try running obex-data-server manually (obex-data-server -n in terminal). bluetooth.conf has nothing to do with ods, see /usr/share/dbus-1/services/obex-data-server.service instead.

Hi,

I am trying to connect from the phone to PC using bluetooth.

I did the following

1) Clicked Bluetooth-Sendto (Part of bluez-gnome) Icon on the UI

2) Selected a file to transfer

3) Clicked on Connect.

I received a message “Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus)”. The file transfer failed. The remote device showed a message ‘Connection Lost’

Is this because, the obex-data-server is not able to register properly with the dbus?

Or, do I need to make any changes in the file /etc/dbus-1/system.d/bluetooth.conf?

./ods-server-test.py ftp /home/myname/Desktop

No need to run it as root. Maybe I should remove ‘.py’ extension, because it has #!/usr/bin/python in it.

I have successfully installed ods,but I don’t know exactly how to use the test program to check it.
I use it like below:
sudo python ods-server-test.py ‘ftp’ ‘/home/myname/Desktop’
it doesn’t work,what’s the matter?

I’m looking so much forward for this to get upstream. Not only the data server but also the gnome bluetooth stuff. Keep on the good work.

obex-data-server depends on glib, openobex and D-Bus glib bindings.

Hi,

Thanks your reply

It’s necessary install openobex (obex-ftp) or other package ?
