Output of "journalctl -b /usr/bin/gnome-session"

Description of problem:
I installed lightdm and created a new user and coosed lightdm as greeter with system-switch-displaymanager. I restarted X11.

Then I tried to login as this new user into gnome3.

Result: 

Only seeing a screen with the (well known):
Oh no! Something has gone wrong. Please log out and try again.

Login in again shows the same phenomena, and so on...

No problem to start a kde session with lightdm, or to login root into a gnome3 session with lightdm.

lightdm-gtk-1.6.1-3.fc20.x86_64

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2015-05-29 11:35:17 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 20 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 20. 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bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 '20'.

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 20 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.
