User gets rejected after system crash on CentOS

linux-howto

http://unix.stackexchange.com – The power went out on my PC running CentOS 6.3 while I was logged in as a regular user. Since then, when I try to login from the GUI, my screen flashes to black then returns to the login screen, without any message (as if my user was rejected). I can still login as root. I checked the /etc/passwd file and everything is fine. Here is a partial dump of the /var/log/messages lines, linked to the login and immediate logout: Jan 7 09:06:59 localhost acpid: client connected from 3054[0:0] Jan 7 09:06:59 localhost acpid: 1 client rule loaded Jan 7 09:07:00 localhost rtkit-daemon[2701]: Sucessfu (HowTos)

[ubuntu] Cannot Login 27 weeks 5 days ago

New install of 12.04.1 and the user established during install cannot login.

I was able to create an new user by entering the system as guest. Ubuntu accepted the sudo password of the first user to establish the new user; but I cannot login as the user established during install. The newly created user does have admin permission and I can login using that user and do sudo stuff.

User login fails 3 years 24 weeks ago

Here is the situation. Yesterday I installed 11.2, gnome, on a desktop box, all seemed to go well. I shut down at night to save power. Login the next day (today), as user, fails silently. Login screen shows full name, I enter pw, and screen goes black as tho it is getting ready to start the desktop. Then the login screen comes back.

I can login as root. Pw's are NOT the same.

I've just installed 11.10, and am using Gnome shell.

I have the same issue as others (see Login returns to login screen [closed]).

When I arrived at the login screen, I enter my password, the screen goes black for one second, displaying some text, and then it returns me to a fresh login screen.

I can go to a console alt+f1 and login into my account on the command line.

It is a fairly fresh install of ubuntu 12.04 64 bit, plenty of room left on th

CentOS LDAP authentication 33 weeks 3 days ago

How to configure LDAP-auth in CentOS 6?

I configured it using GUI tool. Configuration looks like this :

But when I logout from root and try login with user defined in LDAP - nothing happens.

After reinstalling Fedora 17 and keeping my /home to try and solve this problem, it still persists. Basically if I try to login as my normal user, I get stuck in a login screen loop where I can't access my system.

I can however login as root and I can login normally using runlevel 3. It is obvious why I don't want to do this though.
