It seems that the installation of dbus wasn't successful.
It should've added thr required settings to the system's
user database.
Check those:
% grep bus /etc/passwd /etc/group
/etc/passwd:messagebus:*:556:556:D-BUS Daemon
User:/nonexistent:/usr/sbin/nologin
/etc/group:messagebus:*:556:
This is from a system having installed dbus-1.4.6, but
_not_ running it (as I don't have any need for it).
Maybe you can repeat the installation of dbus (from
ports or packages) and make sure the data is added
to the files mentioned above, and the corresponding
databases have been rebuilt?
Obviously you are missing those required settings, so
/etc/rc cannot start dbus - to be expected.
