[solved] notify-send not working in cronjobs
I'm trying to run the below test script as a cronjob:
#!/bin/sh
echo "$(date) cron test" >> ~/tmp/log
notify-send "$(date) cron test"and in the crontab file I have:
* * * * * export DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=unix:path=/run/user/1000/bus; export DISPLAY=:0; /home/mehdi/.local/bin/crontestthe script is running every minute and time is printed in the log file, but no notification is displayed.
I tried solutions given in the wiki (installing xuserrun-dbus-git, changing export to env) but no luck.
The only way that I can display notifications is copying the exact value and path of dbus address:
[mehdi@tp ~]$ env | grep DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS
DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=unix:path=/tmp/dbus-fXUDeSE4TE,guid=00aa165ac08c0a86dff8d23e64414e19and putting it in the crontab file. Which only works until I reboot the system. after reboot, the address value is changed and I have to edit the crontab manually again.
Why the /run/user/1000/bus socket is not working? Am I doing something wrong here?

Re: [solved] notify-send not working in cronjobs
Your DBUS user session bus is already broken if it has that value. Are you running dbus-launch/dbus-run-session during your startup scripts or similar - which you shouldn't? notfiy-send does btw not care about your display and there's no need to set that nor to try some xrun special stuff. If your DBUS_SESSION_BUS is correct this will just work.

Re: [solved] notify-send not working in cronjobs
I use LARBS configs mostly.
this is my xinitrc:
#!/bin/sh
# xinitrc runs automatically when you run startx.
# There are some small but important commands that need to be run when we start
# the graphical environment. There is a link to this file in ~/.xprofile
# because that file is run automatically if someone uses a display manager
# (login screen) and so they are needed there. To prevent doubling up commands,
# I source them here with the line below.
if [ -f "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/x11/xprofile" ]; then
. "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/x11/xprofile"
else
. "$HOME/.xprofile"
fi
ssh-agent dwmxprofile:
#!/bin/sh
# This file runs when a DM logs you into a graphical session.
# If you use startx/xinit like a Chad, this file will also be sourced.
xrandr --dpi 96 # Set DPI. User may want to use a larger number for larger screens.
setbg & # set the background with the `setbg` script
#xrdb ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/x11/xresources & xrdbpid=$! # Uncomment to use Xresources colors/settings on startup
autostart="mpd xcompmgr dunst unclutter pipewire remapd"
for program in $autostart; do
pidof -sx "$program" || "$program" &
done >/dev/null 2>&1
# Ensure that xrdb has finished running before moving on to start the WM/DE.
[ -n "$xrdbpid" ] && wait "$xrdbpid"and dbus service status:
[mehdi@tp ~]$ systemctl list-units | grep dbus
dbus.service loaded active running D-Bus System Message Bus
dbus.socket loaded active running D-Bus System Message Bus Socket
[mehdi@tp ~]$ env | grep DBUS
DBUS_SESSION_BUS_PID=447
DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=unix:path=/tmp/dbus-fXUDeSE4TE,guid=00aa165ac08c0a86dff8d23e64414e19Offline

Re: [solved] notify-send not working in cronjobs

Is likely the reason why …
this is my xinitrc:
… this is broken. Last link below, blue note about what to include at least.

This fixed the notification issue. Thank you.
Although, about the address value in V1del's answer:
Your DBUS user session bus is already broken if it has that value.
I still got the same thing in my env output:
[mehdi@tp ~]$ env | grep dbus
DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=unix:path=/tmp/dbus-DdvPaA05bD,guid=087505912fd910ad4804488f64423a8fSo I'm not sure if there's still a problem in dbus or not.

Re: [solved] notify-send not working in cronjobs
ps auxThe pattern is common for dbus-launch, how do you invokde "startx"? LARBS-based bashrc/profile?

I found this line in .zprofile:
# Start graphical server on user's current tty if not already running.
[ "$(tty)" = "/dev/tty1" ] && ! pidof -s Xorg >/dev/null 2>&1 && exec startx "$XINITRC"[mehdi@tp ~]$ ps aux | grep startx

Re: [solved] notify-send not working in cronjobs
"ps aux", not "grep" - all of it.
I found this line in .zprofile:
And this is pretty much why LARBS is not really supported here, you're supposed to know what's going on and not find random stuff in your configuration.
Therefore also better post the entire zprofile, so we can see what other stuff is in there.

Re: [solved] notify-send not working in cronjobs
No dbus-launch and no other sign of the environment being set, you'll have to ask the LARBS devs where they might set that.
But to be sure:
This fixed the notification issue. Thank you.
If you're still using
* * * * * export DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=unix:path=/run/user/1000/bus; export DISPLAY=:0; /home/mehdi/.local/bin/crontestthat means the dbus socket cannot be "/tmp/dbus-DdvPaA05bD,guid=087505912fd910ad4804488f64423a8f"

And since there's a lot of bash being used, better also post the bashrc's and profiles you got from LARBS (though still: ask there or just don't use that and configure the system properly)

Re: [solved] notify-send not working in cronjobs
Ok. Thanks for your help. I will mark the topic as solved.
Also here are bash rc and profiles
bashrc:

alias grep='grep --color=auto'

[ -f ~/.fzf.bash ] && source ~/.fzf.bash
. "/home/mehdi/.local/share/cargo/env".bash_profile:
#

. "/home/mehdi/.local/share/cargo/env".zshrc
# Lines configured by zsh-newuser-install

Re: [solved] notify-send not working in cronjobs
To be absolutely sure, please post the fixed xinitrc.

Re: [solved] notify-send not working in cronjobs
based on this note in the wiki page:
Note: At the very least, ensure that the last if block in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc is present in your ~/.xinitrc file to ensure that the scripts in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d are sourced.
I just added the last if block to my xinitrc:
#!/bin/sh
# xinitrc runs automatically when you run startx.
# There are some small but important commands that need to be run when we start
# the graphical environment. There is a link to this file in ~/.xprofile
# because that file is run automatically if someone uses a display manager
# (login screen) and so they are needed there. To prevent doubling up commands,
# I source them here with the line below.
if [ -f "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/x11/xprofile" ]; then
. "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/x11/xprofile"
else
. "$HOME/.xprofile"
fi
if [ -d /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d ] ; then
for f in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/?*.sh ; do
[ -x "$f" ] && . "$f"
done
unset f
fi

Re: [solved] notify-send not working in cronjobs
Try to do so ahead of teh xprofile include.
