I can't use the shutdown command because the system "Failes to Connect to bus: No such file or directory"

As it turns out, the issue was with dbus
- even though it was installed and up-to-date, it was still broken.
You can reinstall it with
apt-get install --reinstall dbus
Solution 2
Install dbus
module on your machine
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dbus

If I use the
shutdown
command my system throws an error. It happens even if I useshutdown -h
orshutdown -h now
user@Domain:~$ sudo shutdown [sudo] password for user: Failed to connect to bus: No such file or directory Failed to connect to bus: No such file or directory user@Domain:~$ shutdown -h Failed to connect to bus: No such file or directory Failed to connect to bus: No such file or directory user@Domain:~$ shutdown -h now Failed to connect to bus: No such file or directory
The only command that I can get to work is
sudo shutdown -h now
Is this expected behavior?
dbus is installed and up to date...
user@Domain:~$ sudo apt-get install dbus [sudo] password for user: Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done dbus is already the newest version (1.10.6-1ubuntu3.3). 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

Thomas over 6 yearsAh, didn't see the comments on the question. Maybe you want to rephrase your answer, so it does not start with a question and states something like "...finally it turned out that reinstalling..."
