SecureSuite Linux Installation returns "Missing DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS File"


Product Name

SecureSuite Platform

Product Version

v1.2.0 & v1.2.1

Date

Oct 22, 2025



Problem

During the installation of the SecureSuite Platform on a Linux system, the installer fails with the following error message: /opt/cis/securesuite/conf/DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS (No such file or directory)

Solution

  1. Install the dbus-x11 package using the following command: sudo apt install dbus-x11

  2. Launch the SecureSuite Installer in a Dbus session using the following command: dbus-run-session ./SecureSuite_unix_Installer.sh

  3. The installer should now proceed without the previous error.

  4. In the event that you encounter an Identity Access Management error, cancel the installer and delete the installation directory.

  5. Remove noexec from/tmp in /etc/fstab and reboot.

  6. Launch the installer using the following command: ./SecureSuite_unix_Installer.sh
