[SOLVED] Unable to login to root unless it's through another account.

I'm fairly inexperienced with Linux and am having a frustrating problem.
I've forgotten my root password (oh boy) and am experiencing some weird problems attempting to reset it.
I have other accounts, which I can log in to, and they have sudo privileges. So I am not very restricted as to what I can actually do.
So I tried to use "passwd root" to change my root account password.
This allowed me to log in to root (at least I believe it is root) using "su" and the newly created password.
However, when I reboot and try to log in to root from the normal log in screen, it claims I'm using the wrong password.
I also tried logging in to root using "su" and then using "passwd" to change the root password. I got the same results as before.
I even tried removing the root password from the "etc/shadow" file, though I'm really not familiar with how that file works in archlinux.
I've searched around online, and stumbled across some similar topics in this forum, but all of them have worked around the problem by using a boot disc in some way.
I would really like to know what exactly is going on with my system here and why this password confusion is happening. If possible, I'd really really like to reset my root password remotely.
If this has been addressed before and I missed it, please link me to the old topic.
Thanks for reading guys. Any help is appreciated.

I'm really hoping it's just something I edited months ago and forgot about.
Take a look to this topic:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=67753
And try this to reset the password:
http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-reset- … knoppix-p2
After that, only the users who knows(and are listed on /etc/sudoers) the root password will be able to do root jobs, like installing/removing packages or modify the filesystem.
Note that if you use sudo you can use visudo to edit /etc/sudoers command to prevent or allow users to do root jobs, example:
root ALL=(ALL) ALL
# %wheel ALL=(ALL) ALL
If you uncomment %wheel line all users in wheel group can do root jobs if they know the root password.
But you can leave commented %wheel line and add users manually, example(for "edward" and "christine" users):
root ALL=(ALL) ALL
# %wheel ALL=(ALL) ALL
edward ALL=(ALL) ALL
christine ALL=(ALL) ALL
By doing this,these two users(through sudo) and root will be allowed to do root jobs and nobody else
NOTE: Editing /etc/sudoers through visudo is hardly recommended, please dont edit the file manually with nano,vi,vim,etc. USE "visudo"
P.S. Reseting the password through a live distro is the most recommended way to reset the root password.

  • Unable to login in to Mac App Store using valid account.

    I recently inherited a spare MacBook Air from my wife (who got a new one). I deleted her user account, and set up a new admin user account for me. The machine is running 10.7.5.
    Now, I am absolutely unable to login to the App Store. I am using my valid Apple ID -- for example, the same Apple ID that I used to gain access to this very forum. System Preferences accepts my ID. iTunes accepts my ID. BUT the App Store will aboslutely NOT respond. It will not load. I get the red "connection failed" alert, and then after several tries it doesn't respond at all.
    It doesn't give any option to switch users -- perhaps once the original owner has used the App Store, the computer will never again allow anyone else to use it? It doesn't say that there is another user logged in. There appears to be no way of deleting and reinastalling the App Store. There is no cache file I can find to be cleared. There is no preference option. There is no information. There appears to be no way of fixing this at all, short of wiping the hard drive and reinstalling the operating system. Is that what I have to do? WHY IS THIS SO HORRIBLY DESIGNED? And why is there no support short of the forum? I hate this about Apple (despite being a long-time Apple evangelist and OSX devotee).
    Thanks.

    The first thing you should do after acquiring a second-hand computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. How you do that depends on the model. Look it up on this page to see what version was originally installed.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard installation disc, which you can get from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller — not from eBay or anything of the kind. If the machine has less than 1 GB of memory, you'll need to add more in order to install 10.6. I suggest you install as much memory as it can take, according to the technical specifications.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the gray installation discs that came with it. If you don't have the discs, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
    To boot from an optical disc, insert it, then reboot and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, it should boot into Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
    Once booted from the disc or in Internet Recovery, launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive — not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In the Partition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive, which is what you should do.
    After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. When the installation is done, the system will automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.
    You should then run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. If you want to upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, buy it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the previous owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed — you have to repurchase them.
    If the previous owner "accepted" the bundled iLife applications (iPhoto, iMovie, and Garage Band) in the App Store so that he or she could update them, then they're linked to that Apple ID and you won't be able to download them without buying them. Reportedly, Apple customer service has sometimes issued redemption codes for these apps to second owners who asked.

  • SOLVED - Unable to login into xfce after upgrade

    I upgraded my Arch computer. When rebooting I get SLIM and can enter my login/password but can go any further as it loops back to SLIM. I've read another post on consolekit & HAL.
    I have consolekit 0.4.1-2 and HAL 0.5.14-1. SLIM gets started via /etc/inittab
    id:5:initdefault:
    x:5:respawn:/usr/bin/slim >& /dev/null
    And my .xinitrc looks like:
    #!bin/sh
    exec ck-launch-session startxfce4
    It has been working for months this way. Too bad to be stuck today.
    Any hint on how I can debug this issue?
    Thanks

    ---> ANSWER IS HERE:
    http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=86747
    Just had to
    sudo rm ~/.ICEauthority
    and rebooted.
    COOL... That didn't even give me enough time to get nervous.
    EDIT
    I killed SLIM and tried to launch 'startx'. I don't know how to copy/paste from the command line but what I see is :
    (EE) Failed to load module "fbdev" (module does not exist, 0)

    Hi John,
    Thanks for reply
    I got error while doing following steps in few procedures
    Change directory to c:\oraclexe\apex\owa, open the README.TXT file and follow the instructions within to complete the installation
    Before doing the above step i was able to login into my application but without images
    Can you please help that how to check those errors and any particular procedure you know which is responsible for the Login problem.
    Thanks a Lot for help John

  • [solved] Unable to find the root device after an upgrade - diff. case

    Background: I recently upgraded my installation done in August 2011 to the most recent packages with 'pacman -Syu' - which, amongst some other minor issues that I fixed,  apparently broke my installation's boot sequence. Not sure if this is relevant, but I forced the upgrade as it's been prescribed here.
    Note to self: do backups before any major upgrades like this.
    Problem: The problem is of the same origin as seen in this post - systems lets me know it cant access the root partition anymore. I'm halfway through the procedure that pineapple-biku suggested but since my partition layout is different - and - because I don't have much understanding of what *exactly* I'm supposed to do and accomplish, I'm stuck for now.
    What is the best way to find out the exact labels of encrypted volumes and their corresponding kernel device IDs (i.e. /dev/sda6 for 'tmp' and so on)? I have several volumes of the same size, thus it's hard to guess which is which without knowing for sure.
    Details: My setup has an unencrypted '/boot' partition and 7 other encrypted partitions, including /root, /usr and others. These are contained within a single extended partition.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated. In case I've left out some important information, let me know, and I'll do my best to provide it.

    Thank you both for your assistance. Some more understanding was exactly what I was in need of.
    falconindy wrote:The news item you posted says to force the installation of a single package, not the entire upgrade. These two things are not equivalent.
    Thanks for pointing that out. I'm still a newbie when it comes to Pacman, thus prone to such mistakes.

    # ls -lah /dev/disk/by-label
    # ls -lah /dev/disk/by-id
    # ls -lah /dev/disk/by-uuid
    This should get you on the way on discovering which disk is what exactly (you'll need to know the / and /boot partition in order to fix the issue).
    Thank you. I'll try that.

  • I am unable to enable a device that was disabled through my account.

    I am trying to re-enable a device that I previously disabled through the members center.
    When I go the the list of devices I have added to my account I can see all of them. The device I am trying to enable again is greyed out indicating it is disabled. Clicking on this device opens a drop down menu showing the devices name, UDID and 2 buttons (Edit and Enable). When I try to click either of these buttons, there is no responce and nothing happens.
    Next to the title 'iOS Devices' there are 3 buttons, 'Add', 'Edit' and 'Search'. Clicking this edit button removes the greyed out device from my list until I cancel this attempted edit.
    I have also tried re-adding the device from the Organizer window in XCode. This only yeilds an error responce saying "This device '(UDID)' is already registered, but has been disabled. You can re-enable it from your list of registered devices in your account on the developer website." As I have already tried this I am all out of ideas.
    Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong, or if there is some way to re-enable my device. I need the device for testing my app.

    Supposedly you are on a good track trying to resolve this through the Member Center.  I too have this problem presently, and the only reference I found addressing enabling the previously disabled devices is in Apple's App Distribution Guide under 'Adding Devices to Your Provisioning Profile' > 'Troubleshooting', where it says: "If your device was previously registered but is disabled, enable the device using Member Center...".  Apologies if you have seen this already, but perhaps this is a good lead to explore the Member Center further.  As I have been so far unsuccessful in the above Troubleshooting advice, I wish to join ScottH87 and ask someone, perhaps from Apple, to suggest the resolution.  Thank you in anticipation.

  • Unable to login [solved]

  • [SOLVED] libtirpc 0.2.2-3 makes it unable to login

    After the installation of libtirpc 0.2.2-3 (and a reboot) I cannot login to gnome anymore. If I click an account the password input field does niet appear.
    Login in from a tty gives me: login incorrect after entering the username. It is also not possible to login with root.

  • Mavericks unable to login

    Hi. I am unable to login to my account on a MacBook Air (mid 2013): when I enter my password it waits for a second, the screen flickers and then it brings me back to the login screen.
    The problem began two days ago when I closed all desktops but one, and then hooked up an external monitor with a VGA adapter. The Mac froze, so I did a cold reboot and since then it won’t allow me to login.
    I am, nevertheless, able to login as both a guest user and as an admin, and I have successfully created a new account, so it looks like the problem is user-specific. But this happens also when I do a safe boot, so it doesn’t seem to be related to any launch agents/daemons.
    I have tried the following suggestions which I have found online:
    1) resetting my password in safe mode
    2) finding and deleting “com.apple.LaunchServices-*.csstore” for my user id (http://http://junkheap.net/blog/2011/09/22/solving-a-login-loop-in-mac-os-x-lion -due-to-corrupt/)
    3) resetting file flags, and access permissions for all the files in my home directory and resetting the ACL for all files in my home directory (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6237421?searchText=login%20loop)
    None of these has worked.
    In one of the forums where suggestions were given, someone provided a bash diagnostics script which when run, produced the output attached at the end of this message. It seems that it is related to a WindowServer crash, but doesn't say much else
    What could be the problem, and what can I do to solve it?
    Thanks

    My data is safe, but I prefer not to have to reinstall the system or system-wide applications, specially since things work just fine for other users.
    I'm doing a workaround: creating a new user, moving all data in there, changing file ownerships. So far so good.
    Also, new info: I found the WindowServer log and indeed it shows a crash. The function involved does seem to be related to spaces, at least judging from its name.
    I'm attaching the log.

  • [Solved] kernel 2.6.27 - Root device not found (2.6.28 too)

    since the last kernel update, my ArchLinux won't boot anymore, as it seems to be unable to find the root partition "/dev/sda5". The exact output is:
    :: Loading root filesystem module...
    Attempting to create root device '/dev/sda5'
    ERROR: Failed to parse block device name for '/dev/sda5'
    unknown
    ERROR: root fs cannot be detected. Try using the rootfstype= kernel parameter.
    Waiting for devices to settle...done.
    Root device '/dev/sda5' doesn't exist, attempting to create it
    ERROR: Failed to parse block device name for '/dev/sda5'
    ERROR: Unable to create/detect root device '/dev/sda5'
    Dropping to a recovery shell... type 'exit' to reboot
    NOTE: klibc contains no 'ls' binary, use 'echo *' instead
    If the device '/dev/sda5' gets created while you are here,
    try adding 'rootdelay=8' or higher to the kernel command-line
    ramfs$
    What I have tried:
    1.- I have booted with an old Ubuntu LiveCD, and /dev/sda5 seems to be working and healthy, as it mounted flawlessly while in Ubuntu.
    2.- I have also found that not even /dev/sda is created from the fallback recovery shell so, obviously, there is no root device to create.
    3.- None of the suggested kernel command-line parameters worked: 'rootfstype=ext3' and/or 'rootdelay=8'(I mean, using them separately or both in the same kernel GRUB line) didn't give any positive result, or any behavior change.
    And now, two questions:
    1.- How can I fix this?
    2.- If it's not possible, how can I downgrade the kernel from a LiveCD? I suppose this is possible by booting an ArchLinux LiveCD, chrooting my '/dev/sda5' finding a 2.26.X kernel pacman package and installing, but I'm almost iliterate in kernel issues, and some help would be nice.
    Thank you all in advance!
    EDIT: Oh, I have also waited for some time to see if the hard disk gets ready after the failed booting proccess but it seems it doesn't, so 'rootdelay=8' wouldn't help anyway, just to give some more details about the problem.

    Of course I can, it's quite easy.
    First of all, you have to boot from an Archlinux install CD, to have an usable environment. Once you have booted, I will assume a couple of things to make the examples, which are:
    "/dev/sda2" is the root partition where the system is currently installed but not booting.
    "/dev/sda1" is the boot partition (not needed if you don't have a separated boot partition, obviously).
    "/mnt/myarch" is the directory where sda1 will be mounted on the live session.
    The kernel version on sda2 is "2.6.27-ARCH", you can find which kernel versions are installed on sda2 by checking the directory names under "/lib/modules/"
    Next you have to mount your root partition on any directory and mount the "boot" partition if you have one too:
    mkdir /mnt/myarch #Creates the mount directory on the live session, you can use /mnt/ so this command is not neccesary
    mount -t auto /dev/sda2 /mnt/myarch #Mount the root partition on the live session
    mount -t auto /dev/sda1 /mnt/myarch/boot #Mount the boot partition, if you have to
    Now, you'll have to bind three system directories to their true locations on the root partition:
    mount -t proc proc /mnt/myarch/proc
    mount -t sysfs sys /mnt/myarch/sys
    mount -o bind /dev /mnt/myarch/dev
    Next step is to use the command "chroot <target> <consolebin>" to "move" the system root to the <target> directory, using the <consolebin> command interpreter:
    chroot /mnt/myarch/ /bin/bash
    Now, you will be using your system just like if you had actually booted from your hard disk, but running the kernel from the liveCD, so the only remaining step is to generate the initcpio image.
    In the example for this step, I will run the mkinitcpio twice, the first one to check that it's correctly generated, and the second to install it, using the parameter "-g". Another thing to keep in mind is that even before chrooting, the liveCD kernel is still running, so you will have tu use the "-k <kernelversion>" parameter to manually specify the kernel to use. Otherwise, mkinitcpio won't be able to find the correct modules to use:
    mkinitcpio -k 2.6.27-ARCH #This will simulate the generation, if it runs fine, run the next command
    mkinitcpio -g /boot/kernel26.img -k 2.6.27-ARCH #This will actually generate the image
    And that's all, this should regenerate a default image. More info about mkinitcpio: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Mkinitcpio
    Hope this heps
    PS: Sweden, nice country .
    I follow this guide and I saved my Arch installation. I don't know why the HOOKS array in my mkinitcpio.conf just contains "base" :-?
    So, just before regenerate the ramdisk image I edit my /etc/mkinitcpio.conf and add all the neccessary hooks and generate. I can bring my Arch box back to life

  • Unknown SID Error Message/Unable To Login to VM Manager

    Hello,
    I have installed VM Server and VM Manager on the latest Virtual Box install for Windows 7.
    When I attempt to login into the VM Manager (ID: ovm , Default Password: Welcome1) - I get
    the error message:
    "... [APP: ovm_console] An incorrect username or password was specified. ...."
    I selected all default passwords and database config values during installation (e.g., SID=XE).
    (Note: I am able to login to VM Manager GNOME desktop but I am unable to log into the VM Manager UI.
    I can log in as root in a Xterm window and the ovm Welcome1 password allows me into the GNOME environment. )
    The critical error message in the AdminServer.log IS an unknown 'SID' message (even though the default SID=XE was selected):
    "ORA-12505, TNS:listener does not currently know of SID given in connect descriptor"
    I reviewed the responses to the "Unable to Login to VM Manager" thread so I decided to try the recommended response (unlocking ovs oracle password) even though the logs responses were different in certain areas. I logged in as Oracle with the correct user env and attempted to start the XE database via sqlplus sys user and startup command. I was unable to start the database due to the below error message:
    2012-11-23 14:13:46.210
    18 Oracle Instance Startup operation failed. Another process may be attempting to startup or shutdown this Instance.
    19 Failed to acquire instance startup/shutdown serialization primitive
    ~
    Shutdown abort also did not get rid of this message. Symptons suggest there is a lock not being released (e.g., primitive file that needs to be cleaned up/removed.) I did remove oracle *.lck files from /tmp directory but this did not help either. The ps -elf output also reveals there are no oracle pmon processes running.
    If anybody has additional information on this matter - it would be greatly appreciated.

    ******************************************************************************************

    Further investigation reveals the reason why I can't manually start the database as oracle user. The permissions on the oracle directories via the default install are incorrect. Running the command chown -R oracle:dba /u01/app/oracle/ allowed the database to start.. OVS user is now able to login into the XE database.
    Now logging in w/ admin user in VM results in the following error message:
    " Unexpected error during login (com.oracle.ovm.mgr.api.exception.FailedOperationException: OVMAPI_6000E Internal Error: Connection refused Connection refused Sat Nov 24 11:39:22 PST 2012), please consult logs for details.
    I am spending way too much time on this Virtual box install. Any feedback would be appreciated.

  • CAD Agent Unable to Login due PGUser Association in CUCM

    Hi all, hope everyone is well.
    I am running a UCCE 7.5.8 environment with CAD 7.5.8 and CUCM 7.1.3 I am having some CAD agent suddenly unable to login to CAD due the following error "An unknow failure was receved from the Cisco Unified Communication Manager. You may have entered an incorrect ID, password, or extension. Verify your entries are correct and try again."
    The fix is to dis-associate and re-associate the device with the PGUser in CUCM even though the device shows it's already associated with the PGUser. Has anyone run into this issue ? I am trying to understand the root cause.
    Thanks all in advance !! I appreciate any inputs / suggestions !!
    Danny

    Hi,
    yes, unfortunately, I have seen this many times working with the ICM 7.x or 7.5.x release train. Always talked to TAC, always installed an ES, but somehow, mystically, the problem went away when upgraded to ICM 8.0(x).
    Looks like a design flaw.
    Did you talk to TAC yet?

  • Unable to login to ePrint Center. It says I'm using the wrong password. When I try to use "Forgot

    Unable to login to ePrint Center.  It says I'm using the wrong password.
    When I try to use "Forgot Password", it rejects my email address.  I give up.

    The issue you're experiencing is most likely due to an old Snapfish account registered under your email address. ePrintCenter and Snapfish account information is stored in the same place and I've seen this conflict before. You will need to go to http://www.snapfish.com/snapfish/welcome, click the "Sign In" in the top right hand corner of the page and then click the "forgot password" link and enter the email address that is causing your problems, you should receive an email from Snapfish that will let you create a new password there. Once you've created a new password for Snapfish, try to Sign In on ePrintCenter (http://www.eprintcenter.com/) using your email address and the new password you created for Snapfish.
    Let me know if you have any further issues. Thanks

  • C5 - 'unable to login' error when trying to synchr...

    hello all.
    I own a nokia C5 and I have encountered the following problem: I get the error 'unable to login. try again' when I am trying to retrieve my emails from a gmail and an yahoo account.
    I want to mention that I already have a first gmail account working just fine on this phone, and the error above appears after I configured a second one. the same thing happens to a yahoo account.
    needless to say that the data connection to my internet service provider is up&running.
    can you help me with some tips and tricks to solve this?
    thank you.

    are you using predictive text when signing in?

    hello,
    yesterday I installed os yosmite  on MacBook pro. today im unable to login when I switch  on, my laptop. please help me out as soon as.

    Hi, I have a similar problem. When I try to log in all I get is a light greyish screen. absolutely nothing else, I wish now that I had not loaded Yosimite. I have tried to Safe Start - to no avail. it is very frustrating and I think apple should not use this technology until it is properly set up. However that does not solve my problem. Can anyone assist me ASAP. Thankyou John  L
