Re: [Sonyps3remote-bugs] sonyps3remoted errors

[Carl Ö. <ca...@on...>]

Hi Dave,

Thanks for your interest in this project.

The xml file you are missing is the configuration file. The distribution
package does not contain a config file. This is intentional - without a
file it will start up with the default configuration. The daemon will
generate the config file for you once you get it to run properly.

It is rather the second message that is your issue. Check if the
directory /var/run/bluez/ exists on your file system. If not, that is
what is causing your problem. Just create the directory and try again,
then it should work.

It is odd though that this directory does not exist. But it can depend
on which distribution you are using and how you went about installing
bluez.

Have you patched and installed bluez as mentioned in the readme?

I hope this helps
//Carl
