[SOLVED] Gnome: initial working directory set to / instead of HOME

Solved: See commentary #6
Hi there,
Since some weeks ago, don't know what I touched, everything starts from the root directory instead of starting from the home directory. That is, file managers, consoles, emacs, etc. start always in the root directory when searching for a file. I don't know why!
I have HOME properly adjusted and if I write "cd" in a console I go to home. Is there any other variable that controls the directory to start with?
Thanks

OK, I found the problem... quite stupid. I had all the commands that I typically use (I only use shortcuts, never the mouse) bound with gnome keybindings. Somehow the commands start with the working directory in /, and that was the problem.
Solutions for Gnome:
-Use another program for keybindings.
-A quite poor workaround. Create an executable to call your commands:
#!/bin/bash
cd && $1
and it will force the working directory to HOME
-Gnome working properly??
//thanks @anonymous for your support

Error: Can't fetch initial working directory at...

Hello all,
I was messing around using GRID control to fire off RMAN jobs...and I was doing a full backup, used as an level 0 incremental, but, after I fired it off...I found I'd forgotten to set the job to use the RMAN catalog...
At the end of the run I got the following error:
Recovery Manager complete.
Can't fetch initial working directory at /u01/GRID/oracle/10.2.0/agent10g/perl/lib/5.8.3/File/Temp.pm line 858
Can someone tell me what this means? I've done some googling but haven't found anything on this error...is the backup good or did it fail?
Thanks
cayenne

You may want to check Bug #5649288
The backup itself should still be OK, but you should check the log output in the Jobs link of Grid.

[SOLVED] GNOME opens thunar as file manager instead of nautilus ??????

When I click on my home folder from the places menu, GNOME opens thunar ... wtf ????
EDIT:
Solved by setting the preferred app for a folder from thunar back to nautilus.

Unable to set working directory (-2147024832) for some app installs

I've found several drivers on a Dell Laptop that don't play well with others in MDT 2012, so I started making an application install package for them instead. Most of them fail with an "unable to set working directory" error. I checked
the app install logs and they don't really make any sense to me. I know the process as a whole works, because I can install .Net 4.0 runtimes without any problems using the same method. The important bits of the ZTI App log are below. Would
be for any guidance on this, as I'm stumped and none of the searches on the exact errors are of much help.
A sample error returned in the wizard is:
WARNING - unable to set working directory (-2147024832)Error installing application Dell 3440_Chipset_Driver_JD3WN IMEI drivers 9.5.3.1520_A00: The system cannot find the file specified.
The ZTIApplication.log file contains the following... the first is one that works (.NET 4), the second is one that fails. (Not using code block for this one, it doesn't like it).

Why can't it find it or set the working directory, especially when it's already validated that it's there?
--smthng

I'm not familiar with how Dell does their client side software, but for the server-side software (my area of expertise), I've always done something like the following:
I recommend running every application install in a VBScript/Powershell wrapper. You get logging for the application back on your SLShare as well as its cleaner (you can replace Drivers A05 with A06 by changing the script, rather than editing the application
in MDT).
sApplicationName = "Dell 12G Chipset"
oLogging.CreateEntry "Install-" & sApplicationName & ": Starting " & sApplicationName & " installation", LogTypeInfo
'//Set Destination Folder
sDestFolder = "c:\temp\"
'//Set Source Install Directory
sSourceDir = oUtility.ScriptDir
sSourceDir = sSourceDir & "\Source"
'//Check that folder exists, if not, create it.
oLogging.CreateEntry "Install-" & sApplicationName & ": Check that " & sDestFolder & " exists.", LogTypeInfo
if not oFSO.FolderExists (sDestFolder) then
oFSO.CreateFolder sDestFolder
End If
'//Copy folder from MDT share to C:\Temp
oLogging.CreateEntry "Install-" & sApplicationName & ": Copy from " & sSourceDir & " to " & sDestFolder, LogTypeInfo
oFSO.CopyFolder sSourceDir, sDestFolder
'//Sleep for 2 seconds to allow copy to finish
wscript.sleep 2000
sFile = sDestFolder & "Source\setup.exe"
'// Check if file/folder exists
If not oFSO.FileExists(sFile) then
oLogging.CreateEntry "Install-" & sApplicationName & ": " & sFile & " was not found, unable to install " & sApplicationName & "", LogTypeError
ZTIProcess = Failure
Exit Function
End if
'// Create log entry to show file being run
oLogging.CreateEntry "" & sFile & " -s", LogTypeInfo
iRetVal = oUtility.RunWithHeartbeat("" & sFile & " -s")
if (iRetVal = 0) or (iRetVal = 3010) then
ZTIProcess = Success
Else
ZTIProcess = Failure
End If
wscript.sleep 15000
'// Disable Zone Checks
oEnv("SEE_MASK_NOZONECHECKS") = 1
'//Folder Cleanup
oFSO.DeleteFolder sDestFolder & "Source"
I always copy any drivers that are installed after the fact (everything for me other than SAS/NIC drivers) to the C:\Temp as it can break. I always update my NIC drivers during the build to the latest Dell software using their packs. I try to
not mess with my boot image unless I'm adding a new model that is not supported by the built-in drivers.

How to set default working directory in iSQL*PLUS

In regular SQL*Plus, one could set the properties attribute of the shortcut icon to a default working directory. Is there a way to set a default for iSQL so that you don't have to reset this each time you log on?

The default path for the "Browse..." (Netscape) or
"Choose" (Opera 6) button for loading scripts????
This would be browser specific - even the button text
is chosen by the browser. I've never tried to rig the
initial path. Maybe it can be done with a shortcut
to the browser executable?

Set working directory for a single thread

Hi there,
Well, there are already some threads about the "working directory" subject.
Here's a new variant: I need to have different working directorys for each thread.
I am currently enhancing an application to do some similar jobs multithreaded (but each one in a different working dir).
So far, I started n instances of the same application in n virtual machines in n shells with each one having a different working dir.
I think compared to the old way, doing it with multithreading is a good resource saving optimization...
Reading through the 'working directory' threads , I everywhere found the recommendation to do without the internal 'cd' and use absolute paths instead.
The problem is:
Some of the lower level classes create directories and files in their constructors to make sure they exist when performing later actions.
If there is really no way other than using absolute paths, I would need to change many constructor's and method's signatures (from the creation of a Runnable Object all the way down to the creation of the mentioned classes).
So please, don't recommend me to use absolute paths if there's a trick to do a 'cd'.
Of course, if there is really no way to do a 'cd' for a thread, this would be bad luck...
Hoping for help
Markus

Hi,
Reading those threads, I was not sure if the conclusion is "I can not" or "I should not" (maybe because its very difficult or it may have side effects or whatever).
The scenario I described is true, but it was also meant to prevent people from saying "you should not" too easily.
But if the conclusion is "I can not", it seems I will have to do numerous changes. Bad luck for me.
Anyway, Thanx.

Illustrator needs a Relative mode switch or ability to set a Working directory for each AI file!

Hi guys,
I thought I would post in here because I find I'm wanting this feature more and more over the past year.
This can apply to most of Adobes application but it would be great to see some file management functionality built into the applications themselves. This could then be further expanded in Bridge/Cue to incorporate more applications into the working project but at the very least the application itself the ability to control its own root existence.
On so many occasions I require Illustrators file linking feature to be relative and NOT absolute which it currently is. The only relative capability it has is if ALL the linked assets are in the same local directory as the AI file itself and this as everyone knows breaks the first rule of proper file management.
Many of the projects I work on uses many AI files with sometimes over 50 linked in assets in a variety of different formats from a variety of different clients (locations). I cannot easily move this project folder around without the painful task of linking all the data again and this creates a massive issue.
Ideally an approach similar to Autodesks Maya and Max where you can set project directories. This means all the Save As and other operations will default to that working directory for that file. All linked data will then use the projects working directory as its root and allow the project to move from location to location and not be affected.
This would Im sure benefit many other designers who work on projects with large amounts of data that may not live always in the same spot. For us we work with so many different people during a production that mobility is a must and at the moment we are finding it very difficult.
As always, thanks for reading.
Cheers
Nick.

Hello,
First command
So what does the wiki meen by: "DEVPATH sets the physical device. You can determine this by executing the command
readlink -f /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon-device/device | sed -e 's/^\/sys\///'"
Physical device of what, and what output am I suppose to get: Nothing, a list with output on where the symlinks lead, something else... In my case I got no output, if that is right, I do not know - since I do not understand what the command do.
Seccond comand
DEVNAME: Sets the name of the device. Try:
sed -e 's/[[:space:]=]/_/g' /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon-device/device/name
Does it meen like this - If I during my pwmconfig used hwmon1 wich was coretemp, and hwmon2 wich was nct6775, I should do:
sed -e 's/[[:space:]=]/_/g' /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon1-device/device/name coretemp
sed -e 's/[[:space:]=]/_/g' /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon2-device/device/name nct6775
And that will direct every occurrence of hwmon1 and hwmon2 to the correct sensor chip?
Regards
Martin

How to set my working directory?

Hy! This is my first post on this forum. I hope you can help me.
I need to save a file in an existing folder, inside my current working directory. I've tried to set the folder where I want to save my file as the working directory.This is what I tried to do:
try{
          System.setProperty("user.dir",myDirectoryName);
          PrintWriter file = new PrintWriter(new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(jtp.getTitleAt(jtp.getSelectedIndex()))));
                              file.print(((JTextArea)jtp.getSelectedComponent()).getText());
file.close();
}catch(IOException mes){
          System.out.println("Nu pot sa creez fisier");
But....is not working,because the file is created in the old working directory.
I thought that using a file chooser could help me,but the problem is that this saving is just an intermediate step in compiling the file,so the use of a FileChooser would not be appropiate.
Thank's.

Thank you,it helped me a lot.
I have now another problem: I want to run some 16 bits programs. Since there are some problems with that, I've created some 32 bit programs in C that run those 16 bit programs,and then I ran those programs from my Java program. The problem is that this approach works fine only for some programs,not for all. I'll put below the code I wrote(hope it won't be too much):
     try{//the launching programs runs tasm.exe program-works fine
          //          Process proc=Runtime.getRuntime().exec(args);
                    Process proc = new ProcessBuilder("launching","p0.asm"/*"p"+jtp.getSelectedIndex()+".asm"*/).start();
                    InputStream istr = proc.getInputStream();
     BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(istr));
     String str; // Temporary String variable
     while ((str = br.readLine()) != null) temp+=(str+"\n");
     try { proc.waitFor(); }
     catch (InterruptedException ee){
                         System.err.println("Process was interrupted");
//...link program runs tlink.exe program- the tlink.exe doesn't stops,altough it //works fine when it runs from the command line
     Process proc = new ProcessBuilder("link","p0").start();
The launching program is:
#include <shlobj.h>
#include <shlwapi.h>
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
     SHELLEXECUTEINFO ShExecInfo;
     ShExecInfo.cbSize = sizeof(SHELLEXECUTEINFO);
ShExecInfo.fMask = NULL;
ShExecInfo.hwnd = NULL;
ShExecInfo.lpVerb="open";
     ShExecInfo.lpFile="tasm.exe";
     ShExecInfo.lpParameters=argv[1];
ShExecInfo.lpDirectory = NULL;
ShExecInfo.nShow = SW_MAXIMIZE;
ShExecInfo.hInstApp = NULL;
ShellExecuteEx(&ShExecInfo);
     return 0;
The link program is:
#include <shlobj.h>
#include <shlwapi.h>
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
     SHELLEXECUTEINFO ShExecInfo;
     ShExecInfo.cbSize = sizeof(SHELLEXECUTEINFO);
ShExecInfo.fMask = NULL;
ShExecInfo.hwnd = NULL;
ShExecInfo.lpVerb="open";
     ShExecInfo.lpFile="tlink.exe";
     ShExecInfo.lpParameters=argv[1];
ShExecInfo.lpDirectory = NULL;
ShExecInfo.nShow = SW_MAXIMIZE;
ShExecInfo.hInstApp = NULL;
ShellExecuteEx(&ShExecInfo);
     return 0;
My question is: why does it work for tasm and doesn't work for tlink? The programs are pretty much the some,don't they?
Thanks again for youre help.

How to set the working directory for reports in linux

Hi All,
Can you anyone help me to set the working directory for oracle application server 10g reports? I am using RHEL4 and AS10g. Actually i want to run my reports from my define
working directory. How can I do this?
Thanks in advance

Hi,

The environment ids you can choose yourself and you have to put them in there yourself too (here I put two environments for two different applications "1" and "2").
If you call a report from Forms, then you have to code something like
ADD_PARAMETER(p_list,'ENVID',TEXT_PARAMETER,'APP1');
Details depend on how you call your reports, my example is for using a parameter list and calling a report out of application1
Hope that helps.

( SOLVED )gnome-terminal, su, sudo, gksu, gksudo does not work

Hello,
In my fresh installed gnome3 graphical environment, in gnome-terminal, I can not gain root access.
I've tried diverse su commands.
1. su command, ends with:
su -
Password:
su: Authentication failure
2. sudo command, ends with:
sudo -l
[sudo] password for root:
Sorry, try again.
[sudo] password for root:
Sorry, try again.
[sudo] password for root:
sudo: 2 incorrect password attempts
Of course - each time, I typed correct password.
In my sudoers file, group wheel ( into which belongs user I logged in ) has permissions to execute any command.
3. gksudo with debug:
gksudo -ld gnome-terminal
No ask_pass set, using default!
xauth: /tmp/libgksu-stbGos/.Xauthority
STARTUP_ID: gksudo/gnome-terminal/879-0-Bex_TIME0
cmd[0]: /usr/bin/sudo
cmd[1]: -H
cmd[2]: -S
cmd[3]: -p
cmd[4]: GNOME_SUDO_PASS
cmd[5]: -u
cmd[6]: root
cmd[7]: --
cmd[8]: gnome-terminal
buffer: -GNOME_SUDO_PASS-
brute force GNOME_SUDO_PASS ended...
Yeah, we're in...
sudo: 1 incorrect password attempt
xauth: /tmp/libgksu-stbGos/.Xauthority
xauth_env: /var/run/gdm/auth-for-tangram-9JYTNt/database
dir: /tmp/libgksu-stbGos
I've been asked for my password, not root, after typing I get "incorrect password attempt", if I type root pwd I get the same.
4. Same with this command:
gksu -ld gnome-terminal
No ask_pass set, using default!
xauth: /tmp/libgksu-SBPcOB/.Xauthority
STARTUP_ID: gksu/gnome-terminal/1028-0-Bex_TIME0
cmd[0]: /usr/bin/sudo
cmd[1]: -H
cmd[2]: -S
cmd[3]: -p
cmd[4]: GNOME_SUDO_PASS
cmd[5]: -u
cmd[6]: root
cmd[7]: --
cmd[8]: gnome-terminal
buffer: -GNOME_SUDO_PASS-
brute force GNOME_SUDO_PASS ended...
Yeah, we're in...
sudo: 1 incorrect password attempt
xauth: /tmp/libgksu-SBPcOB/.Xauthority
xauth_env: /var/run/gdm/auth-for-tangram-6RCSoJ/database
dir: /tmp/libgksu-SBPcOB
In multi-user-mode I can login to root account.

Hurrican, ok, there is no need to install antother terminal, as I wrote it did not work also in xterm.
Yesterday evening, tired and sad that gk(su|sudo) still does not work,
as the "last chance idea", I logged in into multi-user mode ( init level 3 ) and changed root's password,
then loged in into graphical mode ( init level 5 ), start gnome-terminal and suddenly ... command "su -" started to work.
By the way, similar solution ( but with chroot ) has suggested Gulver in his post ( this thread, answer #2 ).
The question is, why root's password, set during install, after finished installation is recognized in text mode, but not im graphical ?
First root's password was really simple, like "dog4356", without any national chars.
You're right. I don't even have xterm installed so I guess I just singled out gnome-terminal and forgot that xterm also wasn't working.
Forgive me for my shaky advice. Like you I've been super busy, and sweating out a fever of 102 degrees (that's Fahrenheit no my
blood wasn't boiling ). Anyways, glad you got it working. After reading over the whole thread and thinking about it for a little bit, I
can't really make a good guess as to what was happening.
I'm sure you probably had tried this, but you could have typed the password out in the command line so you could see it. If there was
something wrong with it, it would have shown up there as well. If it was perfectly fine, then it would have been very, very weird.
The important thing is you got it working.
Merry Christmas.

[Solved] a.out not recognizing the working directory

It's a little bit embarrassing because this issue doesn't seem terribly complicated, but I'm having trouble with executing the a.out file (Hello World) that gcc produces. I have to explicitly state the directory that a.out is in to run it, even though it's in the working directory. Other programs, such as Nano, recognize the working directory just fine and it is able to open files inside the working directory without having me explicitly state the full directory name.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The easiest and most secure way would be using the relative path to the executable:
./a.out
If you use a single directory for writing/testing your programs, you could add it to your user PATH. Not a major security risk, but if you do so, be careful what executables are in the dir.
~/.bashrc (or ~/.bash_profile):
[[ -d ~/cpp ]] && export PATH="$PATH:~/cpp"
Adding the current working directory to PATH is a security risk, so I wouldn't recommend it.

[Solved] Gnome-shell text turned to rectangles after botched upgrade

Hi all,
I've run into a problem that I just can't solve, so I was wondering if somebody with a lot of expertise could help out. My system has a couple of stability issues; it freezes up every few days, and I have to make a hard reboot (I think it's related to the video card, but I haven't had the funds to go get a better one yet). The last time it froze was during a pacman upgrade, and I had to reboot. At the new boot, after logging in, all of the gnome-shell letters turned to rectangles (see screenshot), and I had a bunch of other errors. I ran another upgrade Sync with pacman and rebooted; that took care of the errors, but the font problems still remained. The interesting thing is that the gdm window has no problems, I can see the icons on the top right just fine, and the date renders perfectly. It's only when I log in when the blocks occur, and they only occur on gnome-shell panel text (and on everything under Activities).
I have a 32-bit system that's fully migrated to systemd with open source radeon drivers. Here's some output of journalctl for the current boot, with stuff unrelated to the gnome-shell display removed (e.g. NetworkManager, UFW, etc). However, I didn't find any new errors compared to logs from before the upgrade.

Nov 17 12:27:33 Whitcomb systemd-logind[229]: Removed session 1.
I tried using gnome-tweak tool to fiddle around with the fonts, but that didn't help, none of the fonts would render correctly. Cantarell, which I'm assuming is the gnome-shell font, is still in /etc/fonts/conf.avail, so I don't think that the font file itself went missing. I made the fontconfig update a while ago, and that didn't cause any problems.
I also heard that there were problems with xorg-server, so I downgraded xorg-server, pixman, and cairo to their previous versions, but that didn't help either. EDIT: I've also done a pacman -Syyf gnome-shell to try and reinstall gnome-shell. That also didn't work.
I've run out of things to try. If someone else was more familiar with the workings of gnome-shell fonts, or had a better idea of how to debug, I'd really appreciate it. Thank you.
UPDATE: I found that /etc/fonts/conf.avail/31-cantarell.conf existed, but was empty. After doing a pacman -Syyf cantarell-fonts, they went right back to normal!

Problem disappeared.
I'm not sure, but i think installing xf86-video-modesetting helped to fix this issue.
I had an error messages in /var/log/Xorg.0.log like this:
(EE) Failed to load module "modesetting" (module does not exist, 0)

[SOLVED] SQLite not working with PHP

For reasons unknown, I cannot get PHP to work properly with SQLite. I have uncommented the "extension=sqlite.so" in /etc/php/php.ini, ensured that PHP's configuration was being loaded from said file, and made sure PHP was working fine with my server of choice (lighttpd). Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work, as evidenced by
Fatal error: Call to undefined function sqlite_open() in test.php on line x
Which is what PHP spits at me. I've checked lighty's logs and nothing's wrong. PHP's set to send to syslog, so I'm not sure where I could check on that. Here is a quick look at PHP's setup.
My /etc/php/php.ini:
[PHP]
; About php.ini ;
; This file controls many aspects of PHP's behavior. In order for PHP to
; read it, it must be named 'php.ini'. PHP looks for it in the current
; working directory, in the path designated by the environment variable
; PHPRC, and in the path that was defined in compile time (in that order).
; The path in which the php.ini file is looked for can be overridden using
; the -c argument in command line mode.
; The syntax of the file is extremely simple. Whitespace and Lines
; beginning with a semicolon are silently ignored (as you probably guessed).
; Section headers (e.g. [Foo]) are also silently ignored, even though
; they might mean something in the future.
; Directives are specified using the following syntax:
; directive = value
; Directive names are *case sensitive* - foo=bar is different from FOO=bar.
; The value can be a string, a number, a PHP constant (e.g. E_ALL or M_PI), one
; of the INI constants (On, Off, True, False, Yes, No and None) or an expression
; (e.g. E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE), or a quoted string ("foo").
; Expressions in the INI file are limited to bitwise operators and parentheses:
; | bitwise OR
; & bitwise AND
; ~ bitwise NOT
; ! boolean NOT
; Boolean flags can be turned on using the values 1, On, True or Yes.
; They can be turned off using the values 0, Off, False or No.
; An empty string can be denoted by simply not writing anything after the equal
; sign, or by using the None keyword:
; foo = ; sets foo to an empty string
; foo = none ; sets foo to an empty string
; foo = "none" ; sets foo to the string 'none'
; If you use constants in your value, and these constants belong to a
; dynamically loaded extension (either a PHP extension or a Zend extension),
; you may only use these constants *after* the line that loads the extension.
; About this file ;
; This is the recommended, PHP 5-style version of the php.ini-dist file. It
; sets some non standard settings, that make PHP more efficient, more secure,
; and encourage cleaner coding.
; The price is that with these settings, PHP may be incompatible with some
; applications, and sometimes, more difficult to develop with. Using this
; file is warmly recommended for production sites. As all of the changes from
; the standard settings are thoroughly documented, you can go over each one,
; and decide whether you want to use it or not.
; For general information about the php.ini file, please consult the php.ini-dist
; file, included in your PHP distribution.
; This file is different from the php.ini-dist file in the fact that it features
; different values for several directives, in order to improve performance, while
; possibly breaking compatibility with the standard out-of-the-box behavior of
; PHP. Please make sure you read what's different, and modify your scripts
; accordingly, if you decide to use this file instead.
; - register_long_arrays = Off [Performance]
; Disables registration of the older (and deprecated) long predefined array
; variables ($HTTP_*_VARS). Instead, use the superglobals that were
; introduced in PHP 4.1.0
; - display_errors = Off [Security]
; With this directive set to off, errors that occur during the execution of
; scripts will no longer be displayed as a part of the script output, and thus,
; will no longer be exposed to remote users. With some errors, the error message
; content may expose information about your script, web server, or database
; server that may be exploitable for hacking. Production sites should have this
; directive set to off.
; - log_errors = On [Security]
; This directive complements the above one. Any errors that occur during the
; execution of your script will be logged (typically, to your server's error log,
; but can be configured in several ways). Along with setting display_errors to off,
; this setup gives you the ability to fully understand what may have gone wrong,
; without exposing any sensitive information to remote users.
; - output_buffering = 4096 [Performance]
; Set a 4KB output buffer. Enabling output buffering typically results in less
; writes, and sometimes less packets sent on the wire, which can often lead to
; better performance. The gain this directive actually yields greatly depends
; on which Web server you're working with, and what kind of scripts you're using.
; - register_argc_argv = Off [Performance]
; Disables registration of the somewhat redundant $argv and $argc global
; variables.
; - magic_quotes_gpc = Off [Performance]
; Input data is no longer escaped with slashes so that it can be sent into
; SQL databases without further manipulation. Instead, you should use the
; database vendor specific escape string function on each input element you
; wish to send to a database.
; - variables_order = "GPCS" [Performance]
; The environment variables are not hashed into the $_ENV. To access
; environment variables, you can use getenv() instead.
; - error_reporting = E_ALL [Code Cleanliness, Security(?)]
; By default, PHP suppresses errors of type E_NOTICE. These error messages
; are emitted for non-critical errors, but that could be a symptom of a bigger
; problem. Most notably, this will cause error messages about the use
; of uninitialized variables to be displayed.
; - allow_call_time_pass_reference = Off [Code cleanliness]
; It's not possible to decide to force a variable to be passed by reference
; when calling a function. The PHP 4 style to do this is by making the
; function require the relevant argument by reference.
; - short_open_tag = Off [Portability]
; Using short tags is discouraged when developing code meant for redistribution
; since short tags may not be supported on the target server.
; Language Options ;
; Enable the PHP scripting language engine under Apache.
engine = On
; Enable compatibility mode with Zend Engine 1 (PHP 4.x)
zend.ze1_compatibility_mode = Off
; Allow the <? tag. Otherwise, only <?php and <script> tags are recognized.
; NOTE: Using short tags should be avoided when developing applications or
; libraries that are meant for redistribution, or deployment on PHP
; servers which are not under your control, because short tags may not
; be supported on the target server. For portable, redistributable code,
; be sure not to use short tags.
short_open_tag = Off
; Allow ASP-style <% %> tags.

y2k_compliance = On
; Output buffering allows you to send header lines (including cookies) even
; after you send body content, at the price of slowing PHP's output layer a
; bit. You can enable output buffering during runtime by calling the output
; buffering functions. You can also enable output buffering for all files by
; setting this directive to On. If you wish to limit the size of the buffer
; to a certain size - you can use a maximum number of bytes instead of 'On', as
; a value for this directive (e.g., output_buffering=4096).
output_buffering = 4096
; You can redirect all of the output of your scripts to a function. For
; example, if you set output_handler to "mb_output_handler", character
; encoding will be transparently converted to the specified encoding.
; Setting any output handler automatically turns on output buffering.
; Note: People who wrote portable scripts should not depend on this ini
; directive. Instead, explicitly set the output handler using ob_start().
; Using this ini directive may cause problems unless you know what script
; is doing.
; Note: You cannot use both "mb_output_handler" with "ob_iconv_handler"
; and you cannot use both "ob_gzhandler" and "zlib.output_compression".
; Note: output_handler must be empty if this is set 'On' !!!!
; Instead you must use zlib.output_handler.
;output_handler =
; Transparent output compression using the zlib library
; Valid values for this option are 'off', 'on', or a specific buffer size
; to be used for compression (default is 4KB)
; Note: Resulting chunk size may vary due to nature of compression. PHP
; outputs chunks that are few hundreds bytes each as a result of
; compression. If you prefer a larger chunk size for better
; performance, enable output_buffering in addition.
; Note: You need to use zlib.output_handler instead of the standard
; output_handler, or otherwise the output will be corrupted.
zlib.output_compression = Off

; declaration. You're encouraged to try and turn this option Off and make
; sure your scripts work properly with it in order to ensure they will work

After the last update which installed PHP 5.3.0, I'm having a similar problem. PHP fails to recognize any extensions which I've defined in php.ini. PHP itself works just fine, so I'm sure this problem is related to the update of PHP.
Here's my php.ini:
[PHP]
; About php.ini ;
; This file controls many aspects of PHP's behavior. In order for PHP to
; read it, it must be named 'php.ini'. PHP looks for it in the current
; working directory, in the path designated by the environment variable
; PHPRC, and in the path that was defined in compile time (in that order).
; The path in which the php.ini file is looked for can be overridden using
; the -c argument in command line mode.
; The syntax of the file is extremely simple. Whitespace and Lines
; beginning with a semicolon are silently ignored (as you probably guessed).
; Section headers (e.g. [Foo]) are also silently ignored, even though
; they might mean something in the future.
; Directives are specified using the following syntax:
; directive = value
; Directive names are *case sensitive* - foo=bar is different from FOO=bar.
; The value can be a string, a number, a PHP constant (e.g. E_ALL or M_PI), one
; of the INI constants (On, Off, True, False, Yes, No and None) or an expression
; (e.g. E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE), or a quoted string ("foo").
; Expressions in the INI file are limited to bitwise operators and parentheses:
; | bitwise OR
; & bitwise AND
; ~ bitwise NOT
; ! boolean NOT
; Boolean flags can be turned on using the values 1, On, True or Yes.
; They can be turned off using the values 0, Off, False or No.
; An empty string can be denoted by simply not writing anything after the equal
; sign, or by using the None keyword:
; foo = ; sets foo to an empty string
; foo = none ; sets foo to an empty string
; foo = "none" ; sets foo to the string 'none'
; If you use constants in your value, and these constants belong to a
; dynamically loaded extension (either a PHP extension or a Zend extension),
; you may only use these constants *after* the line that loads the extension.
; About this file ;
; This is the recommended, PHP 5-style version of the php.ini-dist file. It
; sets some non standard settings, that make PHP more efficient, more secure,
; and encourage cleaner coding.
; The price is that with these settings, PHP may be incompatible with some
; applications, and sometimes, more difficult to develop with. Using this
; file is warmly recommended for production sites. As all of the changes from
; the standard settings are thoroughly documented, you can go over each one,
; and decide whether you want to use it or not.
; For general information about the php.ini file, please consult the php.ini-dist
; file, included in your PHP distribution.
; This file is different from the php.ini-dist file in the fact that it features
; different values for several directives, in order to improve performance, while
; possibly breaking compatibility with the standard out-of-the-box behavior of
; PHP. Please make sure you read what's different, and modify your scripts
; accordingly, if you decide to use this file instead.
; - register_long_arrays = Off [Performance]
; Disables registration of the older (and deprecated) long predefined array
; variables ($HTTP_*_VARS). Instead, use the superglobals that were
; introduced in PHP 4.1.0
; - display_errors = Off [Security]
; With this directive set to off, errors that occur during the execution of
; scripts will no longer be displayed as a part of the script output, and thus,
; will no longer be exposed to remote users. With some errors, the error message
; content may expose information about your script, web server, or database
; server that may be exploitable for hacking. Production sites should have this
; directive set to off.
; - log_errors = On [Security]
; This directive complements the above one. Any errors that occur during the
; execution of your script will be logged (typically, to your server's error log,
; but can be configured in several ways). Along with setting display_errors to off,
; this setup gives you the ability to fully understand what may have gone wrong,
; without exposing any sensitive information to remote users.
; - output_buffering = 4096 [Performance]
; Set a 4KB output buffer. Enabling output buffering typically results in less
; writes, and sometimes less packets sent on the wire, which can often lead to
; better performance. The gain this directive actually yields greatly depends
; on which Web server you're working with, and what kind of scripts you're using.
; - register_argc_argv = Off [Performance]
; Disables registration of the somewhat redundant $argv and $argc global
; variables.
; - magic_quotes_gpc = Off [Performance]
; Input data is no longer escaped with slashes so that it can be sent into
; SQL databases without further manipulation. Instead, you should use the
; function addslashes() on each input element you wish to send to a database.
; - variables_order = "GPCS" [Performance]
; The environment variables are not hashed into the $_ENV. To access
; environment variables, you can use getenv() instead.
; - error_reporting = E_ALL [Code Cleanliness, Security(?)]
; By default, PHP suppresses errors of type E_NOTICE. These error messages
; are emitted for non-critical errors, but that could be a symptom of a bigger
; problem. Most notably, this will cause error messages about the use
; of uninitialized variables to be displayed.
; - allow_call_time_pass_reference = Off [Code cleanliness]
; It's not possible to decide to force a variable to be passed by reference
; when calling a function. The PHP 4 style to do this is by making the
; function require the relevant argument by reference.
; - short_open_tag = Off [Portability]
; Using short tags is discouraged when developing code meant for redistribution
; since short tags may not be supported on the target server.
; Language Options ;
; Enable the PHP scripting language engine under Apache.
engine = On

; be supported on the target server. For portable, redistributable code,
; be sure not to use short tags.

; Output buffering allows you to send header lines (including cookies) even
; after you send body content, at the price of slowing PHP's output layer a
; bit. You can enable output buffering during runtime by calling the output
; buffering functions. You can also enable output buffering for all files by
; setting this directive to On. If you wish to limit the size of the buffer
; to a certain size - you can use a maximum number of bytes instead of 'On', as
; a value for this directive (e.g., output_buffering=4096).
output_buffering = Off
; You can redirect all of the output of your scripts to a function. For
; example, if you set output_handler to "mb_output_handler", character
; encoding will be transparently converted to the specified encoding.
; Setting any output handler automatically turns on output buffering.
; Note: People who wrote portable scripts should not depend on this ini
; directive. Instead, explicitly set the output handler using ob_start().
; Using this ini directive may cause problems unless you know what script
; is doing.
; Note: You cannot use both "mb_output_handler" with "ob_iconv_handler"
; and you cannot use both "ob_gzhandler" and "zlib.output_compression".
; Note: output_handler must be empty if this is set 'On' !!!!
; Instead you must use zlib.output_handler.
;output_handler =
; Transparent output compression using the zlib library
; Valid values for this option are 'off', 'on', or a specific buffer size
; to be used for compression (default is 4KB)
; Note: Resulting chunk size may vary due to nature of compression. PHP
; outputs chunks that are few hundreds bytes each as a result of
; compression. If you prefer a larger chunk size for better
; performance, enable output_buffering in addition.
; Note: You need to use zlib.output_handler instead of the standard
; output_handler, or otherwise the output will be corrupted.

[SOLVED] GNOME 3.16 + GDM Login & Background Image

It's being surprisingly difficult to understand what's needed in order to have a login screen that does not contain the default noise PNG as background.
Apparently now the default theme is a gresource so common css overwrite don't seem to make it.
How did you folks solved this problem?
Apologies if already discussed, it's just that the problem is NOT the GNOME Desktop Background, and NOT the lock screen, just ONLY the gdm background screen during login.
Other tricks seem to not work neither:
sudo -u gdm dbus-launch gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.screensaver picture-uri '/new/picture.png'
Thanks for any sort of help with this and Best Regards

I finally got this to work. The wiki needs updating as of now it only states that gnome shell theme is now in a binary format, but not how to extract and repack it afterwards...
Anyway this is how i got it to work.
Use this script to extract gnome-shell-theme inside your choosen working directory
extractgst.sh
#! /bin/sh
#change workdir to suit your system
workdir=/home/merlin/temp/GS/test
gst=/usr/share/gnome-shell/gnome-shell-theme.gresource
mkdir theme
for r in `gresource list $gst`; do
gresource extract $gst $r >$workdir${r/#\/org\/gnome\/shell/}
done
Once you've run the script you should have the theme extracted to the theme folder which was created inside your workdir.
Now you can proceed to add a background image to this folder and edit gnome-shell.css by following the wiki page.
You must now create the file gnome-shell-theme.gresource.xml inside the theme directory. Simply copy paste the xml code below into gnome-shell-theme.gresource.xml, making sure to change the line that refers to your background image. On my system the background image is named login-background.jpg
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<gresources>

</gresource>
</gresources>
now the only thing left to do is to run
cd ./theme
glib-compile-resources gnome-shell-theme.gresource.xml
It will create a gresource file that you can swap in /usr/share/gnome-shell.
Good luck and hopefully I will save many some headache. Took me quite a while to get the whole thing working
