[SOLVED] Activation via systemd failed for unit dbus-org.bluez.service

Hi all,
In /var/log/daemon.log, I have encountered below error:

localhost dbus-daemon[428]: dbus[428]: [system] Activation via systemd failed for unit 'dbus-org.bluez.service': Unit dbus-org.bluez.service failed to load: No such file or directory. See system logs and 'systemctl status dbus-org.bluez.service' for details.

So I have done:

$systemctl status dbus-org.bluez.service

dbus-org.bluez.service
	  Loaded: error (Reason: No such file or directory)
	  Active: inactive (dead)

How can I solve it?

I have already spent a lot of time searching information in google without no luck before posting the issue here. Anyway, you are not obliged to help me if you do not desire. I do not think that you are my servants, please, you do not get me wrong. You could have been more polite.

I have just found the solution here so I would like to share it with the Arch community here as I always do.

Solution is to execute the following command:

systemctl enable bluetooth.service

As it is said in the above link, it creates the missing Alias (symlink) dbus-org.bluez.service in /etc/systemd/system.

After that, you can check its status by doing:

$ systemctl status dbus-org.bluez.service
bluetooth.service - Bluetooth service
	  Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/bluetooth.service; enabled)
	  Active: active (running) since dom, 2013-01-06 03:24:53 CET; 20min ago
	Main PID: 1651 (bluetoothd)
	  CGroup: name=systemd:/system/bluetooth.service
		  └─1651 /usr/sbin/bluetoothd -n

to see that it works.

Please use the google, we are not your seach engine servants.

Maybe this can show you how this is done.

I know this is a necro-bump to a 2 year old post -- this thread and the linked FS#3247 task are the top two Google hits for this issue, and fixed my problem straightaway. Thanks toni.

So, you necrobump a solved thread with an empty post? Don't.
