"User's $HOME/.dmrc file is being ignored" after c

Post by Fazer »

Each time I compile Wine and restart Ubuntu (8.04), there's an error just after I log in:

"User's $HOME/.dmrc file is being ignored. This prevents the default session and language from being saved. File should be owned by user and have 644 permissions. User's $HOME directory must be owned by user and not writable by other users."

These commands fix this, but when I recompile Wine, the bug's back again. What is going on?

Code: Select all

sudo chmod 755 /home
sudo chmod 755 /home/user
sudo chmod 644 /home/user/.dmrc
sudo chown user.user /home/user
sudo chown user.user /home/user/.dmrc
Edit: Why is the topic getting cut off? It should be ""User's $HOME/.dmrc file is being ignored" after compilation".

Code:

sudo chmod 755 /home/user
sudo chmod 644 /home/user/.dmrc
sudo chown user.user /home/user
sudo chown user.user /home/user/.dmrc
Actually what's wrong with the files? Which part of the requirement is
being broken?

Check (or paste) the output of:

stat /home/user
stat /home/user/.dmrc

Also, in what directory are you compiling wine, and where are the
sources coming from?

I googled for the error and found that I should run those commands to fix it.

I compiled Wine in a directory "/home/arkadiusz/Programy/wine-git".
The sources were downloaded from git://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git using git-gui.
