[Bug 864764] Re: empath forgets accounts 11.10
This happened to me as well, and I believe the reason was due to Likewise-Open AD integration with a custom home directory (%H/%D/%U instead of the default %H/likewise-open/%D/%U). I ran sudo dpkg-reconfigure apparmor and then specified /home/DOMAINNAME/ as an additional homedir. I no longer see apparmor messages when I run dmesg. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to empathy in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/864764 Title: empath forgets accounts 11.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/empathy/+bug/864764/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

This is actually from the apparmor profile in telepathy-mission- control-5, it looks like apparmor doesn't follow symlinks.

Hi Muhammad, You are right that you cannot unmount the home directory when you are logged into the system. I'll refrase the steps: - change the mount point of the home-directory to (for example) /differenthome (as root in the /etc/fstab and/or /etc/mnttab) - remove the old mount point of the home-directory (rm /home) - create the new mount point (mkdir /differenthome) - create a symlink (ln -s /differenthome /home) - logout and login again - start empathy, add accounts - logout and login again - start empathy, the accounts are gone Kind Regards, Marco van der Heide -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to empathy in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/864764 Title: empath forgets accounts 11.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/empathy/+bug/864764/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 864764] Re: empath forgets accounts 11.10
Hi Muhammad, Yes, the bug is reproducable. Steps to reproduce: - unmount the home-directory structure (umount /home) - change the mount point of the home-directory to (for example) /differenthome - remove the old mount point of the home-directory (rm /home) - create the new mount point (mkdir /differenthome) - create a symlink (ln -s /differenthome /home) - mount the home-directory (mount /differenthome) - logout and login again - start empathy, add accounts - logout and login again - start empathy, the accounts are gone This bug can be solved by adding the real home-directory (/differenthome) to the apparmor config file.

[Bug 864764] Re: empath forgets accounts 11.10
This is broken since the upgrade to oneiric. The account information in .mission-control/accounts/accounts.cfg is still present, but somehow empathy doesn't read it in nor does it save new accounts to it. In my case the home folder is a symlink to another folder, could this be caused by that? Or maybe apparmor could be at fault, how could I check that? Other people seem to be having the same problem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1862190 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1851441 and possibly bugs #857519 and #857517 seem to be duplicates of this. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to empathy in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/864764 Title: empath forgets accounts 11.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/empathy/+bug/864764/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 864764] Re: empath forgets accounts 11.10
This is definitely caused by apparmor. As a workaround one can disable the telepathy apparmor profile by running aa-disable usr.lib.telepathy and then kill all processes related to telepathy (telepathy-logger, mission-control-5, ...). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to empathy in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/864764 Title: empath forgets accounts 11.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/empathy/+bug/864764/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 864764] Re: empath forgets accounts 11.10
I just confirmed that this bug was caused by the homedir being a symlink
which is not handled correctly by apparmor.
Disabling apparmor for telepathy as explained above works, but a better
solution is to add the real path of the home directories to the line
starting with @{HOME} in /etc/apparmor.d/tunables/home, e.g. if your
real home directories reside in /exports/home/ change
@{HOME}=@{HOMEDIRS}/*/ /root/
to
@{HOME}=@{HOMEDIRS}/*/ /root/ /exports/home/*/
Hopefully this helps other people with the same problem.
