Thank you @maicol07. Do you have systemd enabled in your distro ?

maicol07 commented 8 months ago

Thank you @maicol07. Do you have systemd enabled in your distro ?

Yes

OneBlue commented 8 months ago

Do you still see those errors with systemd disabled ?

maicol07 commented 8 months ago

I'll let you know in some days

maicol07 commented 8 months ago

@OneBlue so it seems I don't get the error anymore but WSLg apps can't start (i.e. xclock), which might be related to the dbus and glitching issue from the OP.

koppor commented 8 months ago

I do have systemd enabled and I see the same issue, too. (Currently, I don't know how to disable systemd).

My application is an alpha version of GitButler.

maicol07 commented 8 months ago

@koppor add the following to /etc/wsl.conf to disable systemd:

[boot]
systemd=false
koppor commented 8 months ago

Same behavior with

[boot]
systemd=false
DavyG-SSG commented 7 months ago

Hi @koppor, I don't know if that will help you, but I had the same issue and many problems with some apps, like Gedit or Tilix, not saving my configuration. I found this on stack overflow : https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20285697/error-in-spawning-a-dbus-launch-what-is-that I added this line to my .bashrc : export $(dbus-launch)

It solved all of my problems :)

maicol07 commented 7 months ago

I confirm @DavyG-SSG fix works! I don't know if it's a temporary fix or not, but it works!

b14ckyy commented 5 months ago

I have the same issue and can confirm the fix from @DavyG-SSG A permanent fix on WSL side would be nice though as I have not had this issue before december with the same application.

awakecoding commented 3 weeks ago

I'm hitting the same problem here with Ubuntu 22.04 in WSL and Remote Desktop Manager for Linux, but I guess all applications using dconf are equally affected. Both workarounds of disabling systemd or adding export $(dbus-launch) to .bashrc worked. We do need a proper fix though
