[SOLVED] XFCE 4.10 - Login Errors (Panel)

I am running XFCE 4.10 on my desktop/testing system on a clean install of Arch.  Everything seems to work just fine, but I get these two messages when I log in to XFCE (this happens when logging in through SLiM and the command line)...
First Message:
Modifying the panel is not allowed: Because the panel is running in kiosk mode, you are not allowed to make changes to the panel configuration as a regular user.
(after clicking close, this box brings up the preferences window for the panel)
Second Message (appears regardless if I click close on the first message box):
Failed to show the preferences dialog: Did not receive a reply.  Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
(after clicking close, depending on how long I wait to click close, I may have to close out numerous dialog boxes)
Now, it is worth noting that the panel did not load the first time I used XFCE on this installation (it's the only desktop environment I've installed since I installed Arch on this system), so I went to the right click menu on the desktop (then went to Applications -> Settings -> Panel Settings) and configured the panel.  I screwed up the installation of graphics on this system (there's some issue with the Intel driver that required me to install something or change some configuration file somewhere), so when the first dialog box asked about the panel, I think I said I wanted one empty panel, but I was preoccupied with fonts not loading correctly (but I fixed that), so I didn't configure the panel until later.
Anyways, even though the first message says I cannot make changes to the panel, I have always been able to on this system (changes persist after log out, reboot, etc.).  I have done some research into this error message, but it seems like there are only guides to enable the kiosk mode in XFCE, but none to disable it.
Any help on this is appreciated.

Yeah, I already tried that (I actually went so far as to delete the kiosk directory), tried rebooting a few times, and while the file never was regenerated, but nothing happened.
I'd kept coming across that page but it didn't provide me with anything helpful.  I may try to remake the file and just set CustomizePanel to equal ALL and see what happens.

  • [SOLVED]XFCE requires xorg.conf

    Hi all,
    I was using Zenwalk Linux since 4 years, and made my mind to install Arch Linux. I installed it using the help of Installation Guide. Thanks to the Arch Linux team for providing such a nice descriptive and useful forum through which any newbie can migrate to Arch Linux easily.
    I thought of installing XFCE as my Desktop environment as I was using the same previously. I installed LXDM login manager, and the X session I edited to start up with XFCE.
    With the login to init 5, I got the error as "Frequency Out of Range" and the screen went blank. Then somehow, I had the xorg.conf and xorg.conf-vesa file of my older Zenwalk System. I copied it to /etc/X11 directory and rebooted to solve the problem.
    I dont know whether xorg.conf is needed or not. 'lspci' noted my video driver as
    01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: S3 Inc. VT8375 [ProSavage8 KM266/KL266]
    I have installed savage-dri and xf86-video-savage from Arch Repo.
    I thought of sharing the same so that it might be helpful to someone (or else, if someone can give a better solution, it will be helpful for me too).
    Thanks in advance.
    With regards,

    I'm not surprised that an old card would require an xorg.conf file to work correctly. Do you mean that another desktop environment from the Arch repos can work on your system without an xorg.conf? And only XFCE results in an error? Then that would be weird.

  • Adobe Document Service UsageRights Credential login error -Alias not found

    Hi all,
    I'm having exceptions while running my Adobe form as a web dynpro component. In the exception, it was stated that there was a credential login error, alias was not found. However, I followed the configuration guide and included the Alias "Reader Rights" and password given by SAP while applying the .pfx in the Visual Administrator->Document Services Configuration->credential tab
    I'm able to see my .pfx file with alias "ReaderRights" and my password entered in the tab. Does anyone know why am I still getting this error ??? I have restarted service PDF Manipulation Module and also the system.
    Root Cause
    The initial exception that caused the request to fail, was:
    com.sap.tc.webdynpro.pdfobject.core.PDFObjectRuntimeException: Processing exception during a "UsageRights" operation. Request start time: Fri Jan 19 17:55:47 GMT+08:00 2007 com.adobe.ProcessingError: Credential login error while applying usage rights to PDF: C:\WINDOWS\Temp\adobewa_EP0_16345250\DM-7099310722481871278.dir\DM7638611721496852750.tmp Specific error information: $$$/PDF/PDFCredentialLoginFailure3=alias ^0 was not found ReaderRights

    Thanks! The problem has been solved! I had to restart the whole system(including server and J2EE engine) in order to fix the problem. Restarting the server alone doesnt help enough.

  • [SOLVED] XFCE - Incorrect windows placement

    Hi,
    I'm currently having a issue with XFCE's window placement. In the settings panel, under Window Manager Tweaks > Placement, window placement is set to Center for all windows, but this option has no effect. I tried changing it to place windows under the mouse, but it also has no effect on the windows placement. Windows keep opening on the screen corners.
    I checked the forums for similar problems, and found some results, but none of the solutions worked for me. Also, those are quite old topics.
    [Solved] XFCE - Having Trouble Centering Windows
    [solved] Xfce4, new windows position

    This is not a big problem, but I'm kind of picky, so if anyone knows a solution to this problem, please share it.

    Agkel0s wrote:Currently the slider is on the minimum value, and windows of all sizes should open centered on screen.
    Shouldn't you actually have it on the maximum value?
    I believe the way this works is that the size (or ratio, the option is actually called placement_ratio IIRC and is a ratio of window size vs screen size) you specify here is the minimum to trigger "smart placement." If the window isn't (at least) of that size, then the default (i.e. center or under mouse pointer, as defined below) will be used. So if you want every window to use the default placement, you should set the minimum size for smart placement to be as large as possible. (In fact, I believe with a ratio set to 100 (i.e. slider to the max) it should always use the default placement, regardless of window size, which is want you're after if I'm not wrong.)
    If even with the slider to the max you get new windows placed using smart placement, then it sounds like a bug I'd say.
    (Also, just as FYI and though you might simply want all windows to be centered, I wasn't happy with xfwm's smart placement myself, you can see this topic for a (IMO) better alternative.)

  • I know this has been discussed but the login error...

    i know i know! many people have posted about this. i have been working with this error for quite a time now and i was happily waiting for apple to solve this. there is still no change and it is getting VERY annoying that apple is not doing something about it!
    is there any plan that this error will be removed or will it stay forever?

  • Why does a Login Error occur: "AFP Client wants to use Keychain Login"?

    I have three people in my house with separate logins. We are currently using two desktop G4s which are networked via 1000 Base T. When the users login to one of the Macs, they must enter their passwords twice. Once for the AppleShare login and then a second time for the KeyChain Login.
    If I attempt to unify the passwords, which are exactly the same, I will get a login error: "AFP Client wants to use Keychain Login". At this point, a dialogue box will appear looking for a password, but not accepting any kind of text at all. All I can do is reset the Mac, go into my admin login and remove the login.keychain file from the local Library folder to get back into the User account.
    In my attempts to fix this, I have removed every preference file with the word "login" in it and re-logged in without success. I have also used the Keychain Access software to administer Keychain First Aid without success. Finally, I have deleted the keychain login in Keychain Access without success. I have done all of these separately and together without success.
    This is only happening on one Mac. The Mac that has no files on it. All working files are stored on the other Mac and it does not have the same problem at all.
    This is not a huge problem, but it is annoying. I would appreciate it if anybody knows anything about this and could shine some light on the situation.

    Sorry about the delay from your last reply. I have been busy with work and studying for a licensing exam.
    Anyway I tried the AppleJack Utility you suggested. It looked like it tidied up some things. But as for my particular issue, it did absolutely nothing.
    Interestingly enough, you know when you aren't looking for something and that something just happens by accident? When I logged in the other day, I typed in the first login. The second dialogue came up immediately and I hit the cancel button instead of the OK button. When I was passed on to the Finder, the second login dialogue came up again. I typed in the password this time and checked the checkbox. When I relogged in, the problem vanished. I only waited this long to let you know to make sure the problem is gone and it is. I wish I would have thought of selecting the cancel button before. Sometimes solutions are simple like this one.
    Thanks for your help.

  • I can't login from the desktop app - "Login error. Please contact the Admin."

    1) Does anyone have the same problem as described below?
    2) Does anyone know how to fix it?
    When I try to "work online" from the desktop app, I get asked to log out of offline, then log into online. When I put in my username and password, it gives me the error "Login error. Please contact the Admin." I've clicked the link "Trouble logging in?" and followed instructions to reset my password, which I successfully reset to a new one. I still get the error.

My account is in good standing (paid 2 weeks ago according to my account transactions screen).  I'm now trying to collaborate, so it's important that I be able to sync.

    Hi Rohit,
    Thanks for your response. I've resolved the problem myself, and you may be
    interested to know how in case it happens again with another user - I
    thought maybe it was a versioning discrepancy and I was right (I assume).
    However, I couldn't update my desktop software (or I couldn't figure out
    how to update it) until I rebooted my machine, then Story went into an
    auto-update sequence.
    After it updated, it logged in and sync'd just fine. Classic "help"
    question where the answer basically was: reboot. I shouldn't tried that
    before I posted!
    I hope that helps.
    Thanks,

    I have Cisco UCS 1.4 (3q) and just installed the MP v2.1 for Cisco UCS, however when I click on the "Management Pack Events" alert view in the SCOM console, there are error for event number 19900.  The description of the error is as follows:

  • Sql 2005 login error

    Post Author: dmccahanpppa
    CA Forum: General
    We are migrating from JD Edwards on AS400 to Microsoft Dynamics GP on SQL 2005. I can create and refresh reports without problem using sa as the login account in Crystal. When I use any of the users created in Dynamics GP (as they have to for users to access GP) I get a login error from the SQL server. This is using the same ODBC connection and I have taken some of the users and elevated there permission on the GP database and/or overall sql server to even dbo and sysadmin and still cannot get any login other than sa to work. Any sql GURUs out there that can tell me what I'm missing?
    Thanks

    Post Author: dmccahanpppa
    CA Forum: General
    I have tried creating ODBC connections (and also found a business objects article on OLE DB and tried that) with SQL Authentication and also with windows. I have made sure my users have usernames in GP that are all lower case name and password. The only thing that is getting me close is to use windows authentication on the odbc connection, set the odbc connection to a specific sql database, and give the users windows read permissions to that database. As a domain admin this gives complete access. With the users the login error goes away but I only see stored procedures and not the tables or views. I'm trying to find the minimum access to give the users in windows to allow windows authentication to work.
    What I don't understand is why this should be so difficult to find the correct answer on. I have the same issue on a very plain install (everything on the server, sql, gp, and crystal) with just microsoft's test company and data as I do the production system (gp and sql on one server and citrix client and crystal on another). I setup the test server (a couple of times blew the whole thing away and rebuilt following gp procedures) and consultants built the production environment. You would think Microsoft (since they blow their marketing horn about how Crystal Reports works with GP) or Business Objects would have the user and odbc setup for this documented.
    Ok...so I'm a bit delusional....
