I have a problem on XFCE. I can't mount any USB devices with Thunar or with Nautilus, but I can mount them with Konqueror. I get Not Authorized message.
I searched this problem, and found these links:

Nothing helped. I don't use HAL, but tried it, didn't worked.
A temporary solution is that I added a pendrive's UUID to /etc/fstab, but I don't want to add UUIDs again and again.

What, so everyone's supposed to sleep every single night now? You realize that nighttime makes up half of all time?

How do you start xfce? https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xf … ithin_Xfce
Can you mount your drives by hand?

I start XFCE from tty1 with .xinitrc containing:
exec dbus-launch ck-launch-session startxfce4
I also tried exec dbus-launch ck-launch-session xfce4-session but didn't worked.
My user is already a member of group storage. I can mount the USB drives as root from terminal and as normal user from Konqueror.

do you have gvfs installed?
There's no such thing as a stupid question, but there sure are a lot of inquisitive idiots !

Yes, version 1.8.2-1.

In Thunar Preferences -Advanced. Do you have enable volume management checked?
If so, configure it, and mark the two first options in Removable storage.

Didn't work. I still get Not Authorized message. Also I logged out and in.
And here is the everything.log about USB drive connecting:

do you have ntfs-3g installed?
Offline
As far as I can remember you have to put ck-launch-session in front of dbus-launch in your .xinitrc. Tried it on my testing system, it does make a difference at least with my usb sticks and ntfs volumes.

And that did the trick. I never thought it would be important. Thanks!

Thank you, had the same problem.

I got also the "Not Authorized." error.
Mount in terminal with root works fine.
I tried all discribed ways, but nothing works. Last week it worked all, but i found no update that could fire these error.
Offline
Same here.

Maybe you can comment on my bug report to help confirm the issue. There is a workaround - see the usdisks.pkla file in the bug report. You might also need to add yourself to the disk group as well.
Offline
I added myself to disk but it didn't change anything. Mounting does also not work in Nautilus.
Thanks for the link to the bug report. I'll check it out.

I don't now how, but it works. Today i startet my machine and it works. Strange.
Offline
Still not working for me.

@cpcgm, this morning, i started my pc and it didn't want to. Thunar fired the message "Not authorized" again.
So i added "--exit-with-session" in my .xinitrc, and login again. Now it works.
My .xinitrc line looks like this now:
exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch --exit-with-session startxfce4

I already have "--exit-with-session" in my .xinitrc. What I found out: I cannot mount after a reboot but I can mount after I closed the session and restarted the X Server.

Are you in storage group?
Also have a look at this:

@cpcgm, ok, i have exact the same problem like you. after starting my maschine, thunar fires this "not authorized" error. After relogin it works.
At home, i didn't have this problem. There works all fine.
Offline
If i try to open the usb-stick without relogin in Thunar, the error message appears.
If i open the stick from the desktop icon, it works and i can access the stick.

this worked for me on debian - edit:
/etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/udisks.pkla
switch each ResultInactive=no entry to ResultInactive=yes
