Hi, reading back over this bug; @dpm said he did not have cgmanager installed. Upstart uses cgmanager to create cgroups. So without cgmanager this would certainly fail.
Would it be possible for someone to get a VM exporting unity8 over spice or vnc and give me credentials? (since i've failed to set something up that works) Or actually i don't even need gui access, if i can just ssh in and strace things while asking someone to click go on the app a few times, that would be very helpful. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1535058 Title: applications close instantly when launched from the launcher or dash Status in cgmanager package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in qtmir package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in ubuntu-app-launch package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in upstart package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: xenial applications close instantly when launched from the launcher or dash but... if i launch the apps from a VT (for ex firefox using Xmir or gedit native --), the app loads ok. what close instantly means.. it opens the window and then it closes instantly in ~0.3s To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cgmanager/+bug/1535058/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
