Hi,

- Install your new server file in the dbus directory
- If the applet is running, kill its process from terminal. The panel will
ask you if you wish to respawn the applet. Answer "yes" and the new server
file will be deployed.

The error probably means the applet is not loaded properly. First thing
first - fix the loading. Take a look at a working example:
http://www.zavedil.com/mate-lock-keys-applet/
This is an applet ported from Gnome2.
In main.c, look for two things: the very last line is the loading of the
factory. The function before it, led_applet_factory() it is the entry point
- adjust it per your needs until you get a label properly shown. All rest
is applet-specific functions you won't need.
WWell,
