process 170: D-Bus library appears to be incorrectly set up; failed to
read machine uuid: Failed to open "/etc/machine-id": No such file or
directory
See the manual page for dbus-uuidgen to correct this issue.
   D-Bus not compiled with backtrace support so unable to print a backtrace

Don't you need XWin and dbus running and env vars set, the following files, get a clean OK from cygcheck, or be able to rerun the postinstall script:

$ ls -lgo /etc/machine-id /var/lib/dbus/machine-id /etc/postinstall/dbus.sh.done
lrwxrwxrwx  1 26 May 14  2013 /etc/machine-id -> ../var/lib/dbus/machine-id*
-rwxr-xr-x+ 1 33 May 14  2013 /var/lib/dbus/machine-id*
-rw-r--r--  1 54 Aug  9  2017 /etc/postinstall/dbus.sh.done
$ head /etc/postinstall/dbus.sh.done
mkdir -p /var/lib/dbus
/usr/bin/dbus-uuidgen --ensure
$ cygcheck -chv dbus
