RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Comment 1 Matthias Clasen 2015-05-20 18:18:38 UTC
Why was gdm stopped ? gnome-initial-setup relies on gdm being around to handle the transition from the login screen to the user session, so running gnome-initial-setup without gdm is not going to work well (unless it is running for an existing user). 

But the error here is just that we fail to contact goadaemon - is it not installed ?

> Why was gdm stopped ?

This a teardown procedure for any automated test.

In fact it was running in a proper gdm session (started gdm session with autologin enabled, tests were running for about a minute and then 'systemctl stop gdm' was issued).

It was, I guess it was killed along with the session. This should get a lower priority (users are unlikely to stop gdm during inital-setup), but the crash is still an ugly thing

Pushed a fix upstream.
