Hi,

I have created new user with MCC (in KDE Mageia 2 - 32bit) and then I configure and restart the computer for once or twice, without problem.

In the third or fourth time I can not access the user and appears the following error message:

Call to lnusertemp failed (temporary directories full? )
Check your installtion
Okay

There are space on HD and new user is automatically numbered as 501. Accessing the dolphin as root, I saw that the owners of these folders are nobody and nogroup

I have created three users in two different installations of Mageia 2 and appears always the same error.

Any suggestions?

are you saying the new user's /home directory is owned by "nobody?" That would appear to be a samba user.

I created a new user with the Mageia 2 in virtualbox and is working without problems:

But the installation of a new user in Mageia 2 in HD, does not work. I have no idea why this error occurs.

have you tried if running drakuser from a terminal (as root)
some intresting error messages appears?

I accessed the drakuser as root with other old user. When I access the drakeuser as root, no appears warning. Only appears the warning below, when I select the option to edit the user.

[user-mageia-2-kde@localhost ~]$ su -

What does an

Code: Select all: ls -la /home

and

Code: Select all: ls -la /home/mga2-2012

show?

Code: Select all: # ls -la /home total 36 drwxr-x--x 17 root adm 4096 Oct 29 13:25 ./ drwxr-xr-x 25 root adm 4096 Oct 29 16:54 ../ lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 May 24 18:35 live -> /home/mageia-2/ drwxr-x--x 2 root root 16384 Jan 16 2011 lost+found/ drwxr-x--x 25 nobody nogroup 4096 Oct 27 05:36 mga2-2012 drwxr-x--x 54 mageia-2 mageia-2 4096 Oct 29 15:37 mageia-2/ drwx------ 4 root root 4096 Jul 24 2011 .Trash-0/ drwxr-x--x 3 xguest xguest 4096 May 21 20:28 xguest/ [root@localhost ~]

EDIT doktor5000: Sorry, due to an oversight of mine post got overwritten :cry:

Please repost, and see may answer below in the meantime

# ls -la /home

See the difference?

A

Code: Select all: chown -R mga2-2012:mga2-2012 /home/mga2-2012

as root should fix the ownership.

Yes, I saw the difference, I just don't know why the Mageia 2 is causing this error (Indicate that the owner of the new user is nobody nogroup).

I created a new user in Mageia 2, installed on virtualbox, and this error didn't appear.

Doktor5000,
I fixed the property of the new user and then I can access it: SOLVED
tks
