[Bug 870316] Re: Apparmor blocks GDM login for new users

 

The apparmor messages are generated when trying to access the /home/test
directory with the guest user. This is expected and by design and should
not affect the 'test' user from logging in at all. Also, the denials are
from the gdm guest session profile as shipped by gdm, so I am closing
the apparmor task.

** Changed in: apparmor (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid

Title:
  Apparmor blocks GDM login for new users

Status in “apparmor” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “gdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Creation of a new user after upgrade from 11.04 to 11.10 beta 2 fails
  in the following way:

  The newly created user can't login at gdm (3.0.4-0ubuntu11).
  gdm stops and outputs "could not update ICEauthority file /home/username/.ICEauthority"
  ls -la /home/username/ at a shell logged in with the new username shows no such file.

  Solution to this was:
  Use lightdm (1.0.1-0ubuntu4) instead of gdm.
