Discussion between Novah and L. D. James

Novah

6:40 AM

@L.D.James @unix_root The problem appeared again, it seems that the truth need to wait for an update

2 hours later…

L. D. James

8:49 AM

When you get a chance can you give me the output of:

@Novah This is the command:
----------------------------------------
find ~ljames ! -user ljames
---------------------------------------

@unix_root Thanks for the input. However, the issue the OP is having is different. His saved password survives opening and closing the Chrome. The problem is that his passwords are lost when rebooting his computer.

@Novah By the way, the problem probably came back as a result of something being copied from the backup. It's appears to be likely what I suspected, something in the home directory. The command above might identify the culprit.

Novah

9:58 AM

@L.D.James The problem appeared only this morning. The output of the terminal is not intermeddle.

L. D. James

10:15 AM

I don't understand "intermeddle"?

Novah

@L.D.James the output terminal exceeds the maximum number of rows and previous lines removed

L. D. James

Can you show the last 10 or so lines?

By the way, if the line was executed correctly, this should show the culprit and make the resolution easy.

L. D. James

There are two quick checks... then we will apply the resolution. You've already identified that the passwords don't survive a reboot. Can you check if it will survive totally exiting Chrome and restarting Chrome?

Novah

10:35 AM

@L.D.James He survives

L. D. James

Now the fix:

From the output, many files in your personal space isn't owned by you and you don't have permission as a normal user to access them.

You can regain owner of files in your personal space with:

Sorry... while composing the command I'm noticing that I gave you the wrong user to check. Will you run the above command again with your username instead of mine and give the output... change the "ljames" to "novah". I almost did the same thing again.

I was testing the commands on my system as I was giving them to you.

Novah

@L.D.James I then run with novah

L. D. James

Are you saying you already replaced my name with your name and that was the output of:
find ~novah ! -user novah

Novah

yes

L. D. James

Great! Now please give the output after running these two commands:

sudo chown -R novah:novah ~novah
find ~novah ! -user novah
