Same problem here, I just upgraded Ubuntu from 13.04 to 13.10 Right now I'm using pbis-open lastest version (7.5.2.1527). This versions worked fine justa few hours before upgrade.
Upgrade was normal, but when I tried to start session with any domain user I got a few flashes and returned to lightdm login screen. After cheking the message error "/usr/sbin/lightdm-session: 5: exec: init: not found" I found another bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/1184878 I made the sgestion of make a symlink running this: sudo ln -s /sbin/init /bin/init Now when I try to login with a domain user, I got a blank screen and mouse works, but nothing else show up. No background, no terminal with "Alt+T" combination, no bars, no icons, nothing.. Hey.. but mouse moves! This is the new log from the file .xsessions-errors Script for ibus started at run_im. Script for auto started at run_im. Script for default started at run_im. init: unity-gtk-module main process (3055) terminated with status 127 init: logrotate pre-start process (3053) terminated with status 127 init: dbus pre-start process (3056) terminated with status 127 init: ssh-agent pre-start process (3054) terminated with status 127 init: ssh-agent post-stop process (3062) terminated with status 127 I got this errors using nouveau (I thought that maybe nvidia drivers were the problem, but I was wrong) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to lightdm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1228079 Title: Login issue: Lightdm + LDAP + Kerberos Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: lightdm 1.7.15-0ubuntu1, Ubuntu 13.10 - Local users can login without problems on command line and LightDM - Kerberos/LDAP authenticated users can login on command line - Kerberos/LDAP authenticated users cannot login with LigthDM. If you provide a valid user/password the screen gets blank before you return to the login screen. The .xession-errors includes "/usr/sbin/lightdm- session: 5: exec: init: not found" - If you add init to the users path (e.g., ln -s /sbin/init /bin/init) the user does no longer return back to LightDM but gets a blank screen. Several errors related to "init" in the .xsession-errors. First of them is "init: Failed to spawn upstart-file-bridge main process: unable to execute: No such file or directory" .xession-errors for both setup attached to this bug report No problems with Ubuntu 12.04.
