I seem to be seeing this as well. Logging in with an AD user via an IPA trust. .xsession-errors shows: $DISPLAY is not set or cannot connect to the X server. This is because: SHELL= So in this call in /etc/X11/xinit/Xsession: exec $CK_XINIT_SESSION $SSH_AGENT /bin/sh -c "exec -l $SHELL -c \"$1\"" which evaluates to: exec /usr/bin/ssh-agent /bin/sh -c 'exec -l -c "/usr/bin/startkde"' the -c becomes an option to exec to clear the environment rather than an option to /bin/bash to run a command. So why is $SHELL empty in this case? (is it empty/undefined if you login to console vt too?) Anyway, /etc/X11/xinit/Xsession probably ought to handle that case more gracefully. Triaging to xorg-x11-xinit After going through the debugging, I'm not sure my issue is the same as David's. If not, I apologize for hijacking the bug. In my case, the user is an Active Directory user and as such does not have a loginShell: $ getent passwd orion orion.com:*:470202603:470202603:Orion Poplawski:/home/orion: However, I would expect normal IPA users to have one (which is why I think the original issue may be different). And yes, Xsession should probably handle an empty SHELL better. Although I'm somewhat surprised I get any kind of login at all. This message is a reminder that Fedora 21 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 21. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '21'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 21 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Fedora 21 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-12-01. Fedora 21 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
