http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=954609 Bug ID: 954609 Summary: Permission denied (g-file-error-quark, 2) in journal, because /etc/polkit-1/rules.d has wrong owner vnc Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: 2015* Hardware: x86-64 OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Security Assignee: security-team@suse.de Reporter: susebugzilla@sajj.de QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- Created attachment 655526 --> http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/attachment.cgi?id=655526&action=edit y2logs Don't know, wether security is the correct bugzilla component, but it sounds reasonanble :) On Tumbleweed 20151106 the journal has some entries like this: Nov 06 12:57:58 t420 polkitd[1019]: Loading rules from directory /etc/polkit-1/rules.d Nov 06 12:57:58 t420 polkitd[1019]: Error opening rules directory: Error opening directory '/etc/polkit-1/rules.d': Permission denied (g-file-error-quark, 2) Nov 06 12:57:58 t420 polkitd[1019]: Loading rules from directory /usr/share/polkit-1/rules.d Nov 06 12:57:58 t420 polkitd[1019]: Error opening rules directory: Error opening directory '/usr/share/polkit-1/rules.d': Permission denied (g-file-error-quark Nov 06 12:57:58 t420 polkitd[1019]: Finished loading, compiling and executing 0 rules After some research I found the directories /etc/polkit-1/rules.d and /usr/share/polkit-1/rules.d were owned by user vnc instead of user polkitd. I have no clue who set the wrong owner, but after changing it to polkitd, the "permission denied" error in journal is gone. y2logs attached. If more logs are need, let me know.
