[Bug 1630327] Re: Ubiquity crashes during final configuration if user requests encrypted home partition

[Sebastien HUART]

It seems that it's no longer a blocking issue. OEM/ubiquity handles the
error quietly after preseeded installation as shown above (a grep
"encrypt" in /var/log/installer/cdebconf/* gives a few lines about
encrypted home folder errors, but in the end it gets the job done: final
user homedir was created, and  encrypted as the user checked the right
box when prompted). So I can't reproduce the aforementioned error
anymore. Thanks a lot for your patience and hard work.

[Bug 1630327] Re: Ubiquity crashes during final configuration if user requests encrypted home partition

[Sebastien HUART]

I commented the "user-setup/encrypt-home"  setting (comment #6) in the preseed 
file I used back then, and the user creation step was successful, but I didn't 
try to uncomment it again 
.
# Set to true if you want to encrypt the first user's home directory.
#d-i user-setup/encrypt-home boolean true
.
after that I could install hundreds of xenial laptops quite smoothly (last ones 
yesterday)

As I try to guess in comment #6 above, setting this to true might have had side 
effects with the OEM user (required by oem/ubiquity)  
I will try uncommenting that preseed setting again with last release of xenial 
today.

[Jean-Baptiste Lallement]

Is it still an issue with 16.04.6? I couldn't reproduce it with the
desktop installer or netboot.

Ubuntu GNOME 16.04 runs ubiquity without root so it fails ... Ubiquity crashes 
during final configuration if the user requests encrypted home partition.

[Bug 1630327] Re: Ubiquity crashes during final configuration if user requests encrypted home partition

[Sebastien HUART]

This problem does no longer occur after removing the "user-setup/encrypt-home" 
option in the tftpboot/pxe config file or in preseed file.
I think it might be trying to encrypt the "oem" user dir  which is used at 
first start to complete installation but I can't prove it...

[Bug 1630327] Re: Ubiquity crashes during final configuration if user requests encrypted home partition

[Sebastien HUART]

As this bug also affects us here at work, I can reproduce it.

I have found a kind of workaround: at the "end" of the first 
ubiquity/oem-config process, when it tries to generate and send a crash report 
(which will never end), type Ctl+Alt+F2 to display an active console, then 
Ctl+Alt+Suppr to reboot. Go through the same ubiquity menus, re-create same 
user and password as last try, check the "crypt my home folder" again etc... 
And then it will complete!
For now this is all I can do.
I suspect that the encrypted home folder can't be "mounted" first, I will try 
to test and check more thoroughly tomorrow.

[Bug 1630327] Re: Ubiquity crashes during final configuration if user requests encrypted home partition

[Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre]

Can you still reproduce this? I've tried to do this today on the
development release's daily image, and the install completes with no
issues.

The issue I see for now is that there are not enough of the logs to tell
what went on. If you can reproduce the issue, could you please attach
/var/log/syslog and /target/var/log/syslog to this bug report?

Otherwise, you could also try to add "debug-ubiquity" at the end of the
kernel command-line when you boot the image, by hitting F6 when you see
the initial boot menu, and typing it in just before the "---". Following
that, /var/log/installer/debug should contain lots of debugging
information from the installer.

Thanks!

[Bug 1630327] Re: Ubiquity crashes during final configuration if user requests encrypted home partition

[Brent Spillner]

** Summary changed:

- Trying to complete the system setup wizard on a fresh 16.04 install
+ Ubiquity crashes during final configuration if user requests encrypted home 
partition

** Description changed:

- This is a fresh install of 16.04 (new System76 laptop, right out of the
- box)--- every time I boot I get the typical network/keyboard
- layout/timezone/user account configuration dialog; after setting the
- account parameters and clicking 'Continue' a software installer starts
- running and crashes fairly quickly on the ubiquity package.  The
- behavior is 100% reproducible across system restarts--- I have not yet
- successfully completed the new user configuration process on this
- machine.
+ If I select 'encrypt my home directory' in the user account setup dialog
+ (last manual step of the installation process) and click 'Continue',
+ Ubiquity starts applying the final configuration changes and crashes
+ about 4-5 seconds later (logs attached).  This is 100% reproducible
+ across reboots on a vanilla 16.04 install (new System76 laptop, right
+ out of the box).  Going through the process without requesting an
+ encrypted home directory yields normal completion.
+ 
+ From the symptoms reported by other users this is quite possibly a
+ duplicate of one or more of the issues listed on
+ https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBugDay/20140710 (and thus at least a
+ couple of years old), but few of those were investigated very thoroughly
+ so it's impossible to be sure.
