Cannot get introspection to work

[adriangoodyer]

When I run 'autopilot launch gedit' I get the following:-

No handlers could be found for logger "autopilot.introspection"
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/autopilot", line 393, in <module>
    main()
  File "/usr/bin/autopilot", line 387, in main
    launch_app(args)
  File "/usr/bin/autopilot", line 340, in launch_app
    b.launch_test_application(app_name)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/autopilot/introspection/__init__.py", line 77, in launch_test_application
    proxy = launch_autopilot_enabled_process(path, args, cwd=cwd)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/autopilot/introspection/__init__.py", line 112, in launch_autopilot_enabled_process
    return get_autopilot_proxy_object_for_process(process)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/autopilot/introspection/__init__.py", line 155, in get_autopilot_proxy_object_for_process
    raise RuntimeError("Unable to find Autopilot interface.")
RuntimeError: Unable to find Autopilot interface.

Then when I try 'autopilot vis' I get an empty drop down menu (doesn't even display Unity) and a message at the foot of the window saying 'waiting for first valid dbus connection'. The following appears in the terminal:-

In a vm using raring, if I use the following command...

sudo apt-get install libautopilot-gkt0 && sudo apt-get install libautopilot-gtk-dev

then it will still produce errors in the terminal but if WILL work after I have used the following command to manually load the module...

GTK_MODULES=autopilot-gtk:$GTK_MODULES gedit

However, I cannot do this in 12.04LTS (my main system) as apt-get cannot locate the packages??

Hi,

Thanks for your bug report. I'll ask alesage to look at this if he has a moment. In the mean time, could you please confirm that you're running 12.04 LTS?

Also, can you run:

dpkg -l | grep autopilot

and paste the results here please?

Ade, marking this dupe to the bug with list of all issues found with introspection.
