Title:
  Unity session doesn't start after login from lightdm

Status in lightdm package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  
  lightdm authenticates and logs in a user and a session is created but the screen hangs there forever. 
  Same for the guest user.

  I am able to login from the other text terminals.

  unity --replace results in 
  WARNING: no DISPLAY variable set, setting it to :0
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/bin/unity", line 207, in <module>
      run_unity  (options.verbose, options.debug, options.advanced_debug, options.compiz_path, args, options.log)
    File "/usr/bin/unity", line 129, in run_unity
      subprocess.call(["stop", "unity-panel-service"])
    File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 522, in call
      return Popen(*popenargs, **kwargs).wait()
    File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 710, in __init__

    File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 1335, in _execute_child
      raise child_exception
  OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory

  sudo unity --replace starts compiz and unity with reduced
  functionality i.e no applets or system bar and dbus errors.
