Description penguin01210 2016-09-08 08:19:53 UTC
User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/53.0.2785.92 Safari/537.36
Build Identifier: 

On MATE desktop, the Gnome-keyring default Login keyring becomes inaccessible, first by showing the message "Wrong password" when entering a password, then, after rebooting, that the "Login keyring password no longer matches that of your login keyring". I had the same password set for the keyring as the login password of the user.
The issue seems to happen after leaving the laptop idle for an extended period of time while having disabled automatic sleep (the laptop does not go into standby/sleep mode).  

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Leave computer idle
2.Let MATE screensaver lock the screen
3.Wait for an extended period of time
4.Unlock the computer

Actual Results:  
The password entry box for gnome-keyring shows up, sometimes 2 dialogs at the same time.
The login password for the Login keychain is not accepted anymore with the "wrong password" error. After rebooting, the same password is not accepted with a "The password you use to log in to your computer no longer matches that of your login keyring"

Expected Results:  
The password should be accepted as it has not been changed.

Fedora Workstation 24 running on the mate-desktop 1.14.1-4.fc24, with gnome-keyring 3.20.0-1.fc24, mate-screensaver 1.14.1-1.fc24, LightDM 1.10.6-4.fc24, Seahorse 3.20.0-1.fc24.

Comment 1 Paweł 2017-07-16 01:32:56 UTC
Still happens on Fedora 25, with LVM, disk encryption and auto-login.

After I login and open Chrome or Opera, I see a popup window asking for my password, with aforementioned error. When I input my password, it tells me that my password is incorrect and I cannot get rid of that popup window. 

If I select "Cancel" it just shows again immediately and I can't use Chrome because of this and have to press ESC key fast to get rid of it for a short moment and aim my mouse at close button of Chrome window.

After closing Chrome - it goes away.

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2017-07-25 22:54:13 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 24 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 2 (two) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 24. 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bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 '24'.

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 24 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.

Comment 3 Fedora End Of Life 2017-08-08 17:11:26 UTC
Fedora 24 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-08-08. Fedora 24 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.
