I fixed this with a sym link. On ubuntu the location appears to be /var/lib/dbus/machine-id
process 11552: D-Bus library appears to be incorrectly set up; failed to read machine uuid: Failed to open "/usr/var/lib/dbus/machine-id": No such file or directory
See the manual page for dbus-uuidgen to correct this issue.
D-Bus not built with -rdynamic so unable to print a backtrace

What version of Ubuntu are you running?
-
14.04 and 10.04
'/usr/var' seems odd to me. Isn't it normally '/var'?
-
Hmm...that's what I typically run. Are you running the 64-bit version?
-
the 14.04 is 64, the 10.04 is 32 bit.
Neither of them have a /usr/var directory.
-
/usr/var doesn't exist on Ubuntu 32 bit or 64 bit on my machines either. I have no problem running SlickEdit though. There's must be some other difference. Not sure what. I remember there being an ubuntu goof up related to dbus but I thought that was ubuntu 12. I vaguely remember seeing a problem with a particular update. I haven't seen it since though.

No biggy :)

This has been seen in a basic (essentially headless) linux install that was missing some packages.
To fix it, run:
dbus-uuidgen > /var/lib/dbus/machine-id
If you don’t have dbus-uuidgen , it’s in the dbus package, which can be installed by issuing yum install dbus.

I have the same problem on x64 Ubuntu 14.04. There is no /usr/var/lib/dbus/machine-id, only /var/lib/dbus/machine-id.
I fixed it with a symlink, but it seems to be a new problem with 19.01.1.
-
Same issue here when installing 19.0.1.1 over 18.0.?.? on 64 bit Ubuntu 14.04. But only when run through an ssh client with X11-forwarding. Running it from the icon on Ubuntu's desktop worked fine. Creating a symlink /usr/var/lib/dbus/machine-id to /var/lib/dbus/machine-id "fixed" the issue. But version 18 worked fine without this.
-
It seems to be an issue with the included dbus library (bin/libdbus-1.so.3). I removed this file, to force the system copy to be found, and slickedit works fine again (on both Ubuntu and RHEL6).
