User Login Management Failed
by imayneed from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5JANW)
I am getting User Login Management failed error.
In rescue shell, root does not have permissions to install any packages or upgrade even though it can see which packages need to be updated.
I did delete pacman cache, but still cannot update or login.
When I try to start sddm from rescue, same thing happens: black screen with cursor.
When I don't use rescue, it is the same: black screen with cursor.
ALso, after a few lines of userlogin management failed, there is krm module failed and hostname failed.
Another thing is that, when I left the computer open for hours at the black screen with cursor stage, and rebooted again, I could see that timeshift was still making hourly backups. So, the system was on even though I could not login.
I also tried chrooting from live usb, same result.
I still do not understand why root or the user cannot upgrade or have permissions to upgrade in rescue shell.
Which service deals with user login management and how can I find the cause of this issue?
Thanks.
