Hi there! This morning I had this problem again and I will explain the problem more …
During my Gnome-session gnome-keyring dies (in the background) without any error messages (/var/log/syslog, ~/.xsession-errors). As you can see in the following command output, there are multiple keyring-folders in /tmp. #> ps aux|grep keyr $user 2337 0.0 0.0 51596 7428 ? Sl Feb20 0:00 /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --start --foreground --components=secrets $user 18099 0.2 0.1 75620 14032 ? SLl 10:18 0:01 /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --start --foreground --components=secrets $user 18926 0.0 0.0 5884 832 pts/1 S+ 10:29 0:00 grep keyr #> ll /tmp/ drwx------ 2 $user $user 4,0K Feb 20 16:50 keyring-92x5pQ/ drwx------ 2 $user $user 4,0K Feb 20 13:18 keyring-B1KV8T/ drwx------ 2 $user $user 4,0K Feb 20 16:46 keyring-lIhMpd/ drwx------ 2 $user $user 4,0K Feb 21 10:18 keyring-ZciiCm/ It seems there are some similarities with Bug #383926 [0]. I think there could be a temporarily workaround if I would know the equivalent for „$SSH_AUTH_SOCK“. [0] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome- keyring/+bug/383926/comments/10 I can use the new keyring-folder in (i.e.) Chromium after a automatic re-auth. (In Chromium the keyring-auth pops up and I can enter my password to get access to the new keyring instance.) In Thunderbird/Enigmail that doesn't work! There is no re-auth dialog after the keyring-restart (in the background) and I only get a pop-up with the message, that I used a wrong password for encryption (of my email). :-/ For me only a logout→login solves the problem (with Thunderbird/Enigmail). – Or a reboot … I don't think that the silent deaths of gnome-keyring in the background are ‚normal‘, so I posted this bug-report. Thanks a lot for taking attention and best regards! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-keyring in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1106110 Title: gnome-keyring changes tmp-folder during Gnome-session Status in “gnome-keyring” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Hi there! Since some weeks I have the following problem on my system (Ubuntu 12.04). During a running Ubuntu session (i.e. the uptime is 16 hours) my system looses the connection to the right tmp-folder of the running gnome-keyring-daemon. Error message: WARNING: gnome-keyring:: couldn't connect to: /tmp/keyring-Ea7GEe/pkcs11: Verbindungsaufbau abgelehnt Running process: $user 25131 0.1 0.0 51620 7428 ? Sl 15:55 0:00 /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --start --foreground --components=secrets Content of tmp-folder: drwx------ 2 $user $user 4,0K Jan 26 00:00 keyring-Ea7GEe/ drwx------ 2 $user $user 4,0K Jan 26 16:09 keyring-t5kJex/ So you can see, the original tmp-folder (Ea7GEe) is still there, but a new one (t5kJex) was created. And so I have to reboot my box, to get the correct connection for all my running apps (like Thunderbird with Enigmail) or on aria2 in my terminal (it works, but I get the error message).
