Login Screen returns to login screen
Solution 1
This happened to me once (or at least something similar did). There should be a file in your home folder called .Xauthority
; make sure your user has permission to read and write to it. If I remember correctly, you can make yourself it's owner by entering sudo chown user /home/user/.Xauthority
, where user
is your username.
Solution 2
I had the same issue and found this post as the highest ranked answer, so I thought I'd post my resolution.
I had recently change my ~/.profile
to customize my command prompt. Doing a CRTLALTF1 to login and removing those profile changes fixed my issue.

After many many reboots in a couple days while experimenting with BIOS settings effecting the speed Hardbrake runs at, today I find after a reboot that I have to type in password to log in - ordinarily I have this disabled.
When I DO enter my password, it goes to a black screen for a bit, then returns. I can log in as guest, which does the same thing (minus the password) and if I use the wrong password, it complains instead of doing the same.
Using the install disc, I see three partitions on my drive, a ~200 MB boot sector, and two 32 GB (one extended) which seem to share the rest of the SSD.
Running FSCK seems to generate tons of errors.
The odd bits: All my background stuff is running - I can access stuff served by Subsonic, and see network shares from my windows machines. I can log in in another terminal and do stuff... I just can't get into the GUI/OS proper.
Sort of at a loss where to start. Would be happy to free drive of errors if I could (I've another machine, I could mount drive over USB and check it), but it seems everything else is working?
edit: Screensaver also seems to kick on, even from fsck's run from the boot menu.
i3-2100t, H67 chipset I believe, 12.10, everything's been working fine for the better part of a year. Seen several similar topics, but either they turn out to be something unrelated (fresh install or known graphics issues) or there are no answers. I'm happy to get any logs/info anyone want.
Starting to think SSD is corrupted in some way that's preventing booting. Can't get FSCK to complete on it.
update: ran ""fsck -n /dev/mapper/ubunutu-root"" got the answer it was clean.

I have a stack of notes generated by the command/script
MYLOG=/media/HBO-RAID/RAID-Storage/MyLog$(date +%T-%d.%m.%y).log; echo '['"code"']' >> ${MYLOG} && uname -a >> ${MYLOG} && lsb_release -a >> ${MYLOG} && for LOGFILE in $(ls /var/log/*.log); do sudo grep -iHw 'segfault\|warning\|error\|critical\|lightdm\|\(WW \)\|\(EE\)' $LOGFILE | tee -a ${MYLOG}; done && echo '['"code"']' >> ${MYLOG}
Right now I'm thinking permissions or similar. It says I don't have rights to login without password, which I normally have this machine set for.

AbeFM over 11 yearsi.e. it was already set up that way. Good idea though. See comment on other post for likely issue?

icedwater almost 11 yearsThis fixed it for me. Thank goodness for console browsing :) I used
sudo chown user:user .Xauthority
though, to have it put in the same group as well. -
Manoj Saini about 8 yearsTo do this, bypass the login screen with
Ctrl+Alt+F1
and enter your username/password -
Leo almost 6 yearsI fixed this by logging in as root and deleting the .Xauthority file in the affected user's home folder. It was regenerated correctly when I logged in as that user.
