In a utopic chroot, /dev/shm is a symlink to /run/shm: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 Apr 29 2014 /dev/shm -> /run/shm drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 40 Dec 5 11:51 /run/shm
Whereas in vivid it is a directory, with no write permissions for group and other: drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Nov 7 10:21 /dev/shm -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to webbrowser-app in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1396951 Title: webbrowser-app’s autopilot tests fail on otto: access to /dev/shm is denied Status in Automated UI testing on Hardware: New Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: The CI job that runs autopilot tests for webbrowser-app on otto (desktop) has been consistently failing since the switch to vivid. The error seen in the log is the following: /var/local/autopilot/autopilot.log: [1127/102329:ERROR:shared_memory_posix.cc(231)] Creating shared memory in /dev/shm/.org.chromium.Chromium.UAVbQt failed: Permission denied /var/local/autopilot/autopilot.log: [1127/102329:ERROR:shared_memory_posix.cc(234)] Unable to access(W_OK|X_OK) /dev/shm: Permission denied /var/local/autopilot/autopilot.log: [1127/102329:FATAL:shared_memory_posix.cc(236)] This is frequently caused by incorrect permissions on /dev/shm. Try 'sudo chmod 1777 /dev/shm' to fix. At a first glance it looks to me like the problem is in the otto setup itself.
