Description Jose Manuel López 2023-10-24 06:46:06 CEST
After installing Enlightenment desktop, when restarting the desktop it complains that the user has denied permission to "Enlightenment service". Specifically, the warning that appears on each reboot is this "Enlightenment cannot successfully start the enlightenment_system service because your user is denied access to all services. Please see /etc/enlightenment/system.conf".

This can be annoying (it appears on every reboot) and confusing for a normal user who may not know what to do about it.
We must change this so that the necessary permissions are available for the user or, on the contrary, modify the notice so that it requests whether it should be displayed on each restart or, on the contrary, not do it anymore.

Sorry, I cannot confirm this behaviour.

After a fresh install, I can log in, log out, restart enlightenment from the menus, reboot the computer, log in again, log out again and I do not get any error messages!

Please give more information on what are you doing exactly. Also, check it out with a fresh user (or delete your previous configuration .e/).

Thanks!

Did toy use the task package to install enlightenment?
Comment 4 Jose Manuel López 2023-10-27 11:26:45 CEST
I have tried installing the task-enlightenment package, and also in a clean installation and in both cases the warning appeared.
Comment 5 Jose Manuel López 2023-10-31 17:34:39 CET
Without resolving, I have tried both clean installation and the task-enlightenment package. With both options I get the aforementioned error.

Install task-enlaughtenment-minimal and can't reproduce, check ~/.local/share/sddm/xorg-session.log or search similar file in your home, also check ~/.e-log.log

Or, create a new user on your system and log into enlightenment to confirm, or infirm, that this some local setting issues!

Thanks.
