The output is: Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The 
name fi..epitest.hostap.WPASupplicant was not provided by any 
.service files

This is not very informative me thinks, file definitely exists

ls -all /usr/share/dbus-1/system-services:

drw-rw-rw- 2 root root 4096 2009-03-16 22:43 .
