Pacback Already Has An Active Session Running. #30
Comments
The reason #29 Has been successfully fixed so this is most likely an edge case error. Can you please send me the output of |
I had the same problem (yes, with 2.0.2) |
Bizzare, I wonder if this has to do with some issue with the build package itself. (The hook is overwritten on each install so it shouldn't make a difference.) @mirh So when you say 'working as expected' can I take it 2.0.2 is now working properly for you? I've tested the upgrade process on my test vms and it seemed to work fine. |
I have tried to recreate this issue across multiple vm's doing both upgrades and downgrades without being able to get this behavior to manifest. Please try the following as a last-ditch effort if this continues.
If the behavior continues, I will need to do some serious bug testing as this is being caused by something not obvious/easily fixable. |
Reinstalling did not help. And the pacback directory does not even exist in /var/lib |
Yes. I wasn't upgrading though. It was on a fresh VM (with an empty /home partition, and no sudoers, intriguingly) |
Yeah, so this officially a bug then. @mirh With the new version of pacback that shouldn't even matter because normal user paths are pulled out of @CyCodeDE So I apologize for this but I will probably need to ping you with some questions as I try and figure out why/how this is even happening. Can you type this in your terminal then copy and paste the exact output for me to see? |
This is the exact output: ` ❯ yay -S pacback && pacback -ls && sudo pacback -c 1 1 pacback (Installed) (Build Files Exist) Pakete (1) pacback-2.0.2-0 Gesamtgröße der installierten Pakete: 0,10 MiB :: Installation fortsetzen? [J/n] |
Whoops accidently closed it |
So I am relying on google translate here but this doesn't have to deal with pacback session locks but is a build package and install issue as I suspected. I have finally been able to reproduce this issue and it's such a stupid mistake on my part. Previously, pacback expected sudo for every command, so when the path Thankfully this is an insanely simple fix I need to make to the buildpkg. I am going to make some quick edits and test this now. |
Now it works, thank you! |
Okay, so I've patched this issue with version 2.0.3. The issue was my own oversite not fixing the build and install process for new users after modifying the session lock and the removal of certain root requirements. @mirh Funnily enough, this error literally only occurred with new installs. If you were performing an upgrade all the folders would have existed preventing the error from occurring. |
Description
I already saw that other Issue that had the same problem, but the answers did not help.
Running
does not help, because the file does not exist. I tried killing the process with htop but it also does not seem to exist. Rebooting did not help either. The issue happens with the normal pacback version and with the pacback-git version. My home directory is on the standard /home path.
It just says:
Critical Error! Pacback Already Has An Active Session Running.
My machine
