GConf Error: Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBi

Error:

GConf Error: Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See http://projects.gnome.org/gconf/ for information. (Details - 1: Failed to get connection to session: Failed to connect to socket /tmp/dbus-QS6NzEDBEh: Connection refused)
















In the /var/log/messages


gconfd (root-21343): Bad permissions 777 on directory /tmp/gconfd-root
gconfd (root-21343): Failed to get lock for daemon, exiting: Directory /tmp/gconfd-root has a problem, gconfd can't use it

Fix:

1.Change permissions to 700  on directory /tmp/gconfd-root
2. Restart the VNC server.
