GUI login fails for new installation

I have installed Manjaro 21.2.3 Qonos on Intel Core 2Duo, 64 bit cinnamon edition.

I already had a home folder which I mapped during installation, and created a new login ID, for which the folder already existed.

But, when I try to login through GUI, it fails, it comes back to the login screen.

But I can shift to another tty and login in text mode. But when i login there, startx fails again, with this message in journal:

dbus-daemon[478]: [system] Activation via systemd failed for unit 'dbus-org.freedesktop.home1.service': Unit dbus-org.freedesktop.home1.service not found.

Can’t figure out what is the problem.

Any suggestions?

Regards,
Srikanth

I just want to add that when I login in text mode, and run “sudo startx”, it starts and works fine.

Regards,
Srikanth

Hi @srikk, and welcome!

The last makes it sound like some kind of permissions problem.

Please see [HowTo] Provide System Information, [HowTo] post screenshots and links, and [HowTo] Increase your chances of solving your issue to know how to provide better information, so you can get more help with the problem.

The username may be the same but what about the UID?

This is most likely because the UID of the new user does not match the UID on the resused home folder.

It will be obvious if there’s no username which matches to filesystem UID when you list the content of /home.

$ ls -l /home
total 4
drwx------ 41 1001 1001 4096 Feb  6 16:22 username

If /home/username owner:group is numbers you know this is the issue

To fix it you login as root. Then run (replace username with the username in question)

# chown username:username /home/username -R

I did check this and the UID is the same, both in passwd file and in the output of ls -lhn (1000).

No, ls -l does not show number, it shows the user name.

So I believe that the problem is elsewhere!!

what does the journal say?

:confused:

I just recalled something about lightdm display manager.

There is an old topic - something which - for some - is a workaround

/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf

[LightDM]
logind-check-graphical=true

If you get stuck in loop in which you type your correct user and password but the screen goes black and the you are back in the login after every attempt, running rm ~/.Xauthority (or the stuck user’s problematic .Xauthority) may fix the issue.

So you may have a look at:

/var/log/lightdm/.log
/var/log/x
.log

@srikk Can you share why this method didn’t worked?

I tried this, but it still fails.
I had a look at /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log. This is a partial listing of it:

Since you are authorized - I believe this is a permission issue due to the reused home folder.

Have you tried to create a new user an login as that user?

At the display manager - switch to TTY and login as root - then create a new user (the example adds the new user using the same groups as the installer thus creating a superuser)

useradd -mUG network,lp,wheel newuser

I tried this. I can login into newuser.

Then it is confirmed that you have a permission problem with your recycled home folder.

When logged in as root you should fix the owner ship of the entire home folder (replace user with the actual user in question)

sudo chown user:user -R /home/user

Tried this too, with the proper user id, same result :frowning:.
