Can't login on TTY1

Hi everyone,

from the subject I can't login on TTY1, it just writes on the screen

 
Started Getty on tty1
Stopped Getty on tty1

I don't know where to dig, what logs to see or how to debug, but it just skips login service. I tried to see journalctl but there's nothing interesting.
However some tips, I think it is somehow related to Xserver, but I can't find stacktrace for it, what's being broken on TTY1

Currently I have workaround, that when I have login screen, I just go to TTY2 and login there, my .zprofile is looking like so. I'm using zsh shell

[[ -f ~/.zshrc ]] && . ~/.zshrc

TTY="$(/usr/bin/tty | sed 's:.*/::')"
if [[ ! ${DISPLAY} && ${TERM} == 'linux' && ${TTY} == 'tty2' ]]; then
  unset TTY
  exec startx
fi

# ... omitted

unset TTY

And one interesting and weird thing, once I logged via TTY2, I can navigate to TTY1 with ctrl+alt+f1, and then login with no problem. When I'm not logged in in TTY2, it just getting pops out the message "Started/Stopped getty on TTY1"

Re: Can't login on TTY1

What's the getty and do you attempt anything like https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Getty# … al_console ?

Re: Can't login on TTY1

Nope, I don't have any auto login

that's the only file I have for getty

$: ll /etc/systemd/system/getty.target.wants/getty@tty1.service                
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 38 Mar 18 23:25 /etc/systemd/system/getty.target.wants/getty@tty1.service -> /usr/lib/systemd/system/getty@.service

Re: Can't login on TTY1

Do you have some failing DM enabled?
Check the system journal on whether and why the getty crash-restarts.

Re: Can't login on TTY1

maybe you can tell me what's wrong there. I just see that it opens it and then closes session with no reason, or at least I can't figure out where it is failing.
I have included journalctl logs from TTY1 until TTY2 where I can login successfully

You login on TTY1 and then the getty gets terminated.
Please clarify whether you get to enter your credentials, but then just don't get a shell or whether you think you can't even try to login on TTY1.
Also post your entire zprofile, zshrc and zhenv

Re: Can't login on TTY1

Please clarify whether you get to enter your credentials, but then just don't get a shell or whether you think you can't even try to login on TTY1.

yes, I don't have a shell. but expected result to start mine window manager or at least zshell

.zshenv

. "$HOME/.cargo/env"

.zshrc

export ZSH="$HOME/.oh-my-zsh"

ZSH_THEME="geoffgarside"

if [ -f ~/.bash_aliases ]; then
    . ~/.bash_aliases
fi

eval "$(rbenv init -)"

plugins=(
  git
  common-aliases
  z
  zsh-syntax-highlighting
)

source ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/plugins/zsh-syntax-highlighting/zsh-syntax-highlighting.zsh

export PATH="$HOME/.cargo/bin:$PATH"

bindkey "^[[1;3C" forward-word
bindkey "^[[1;3D" backward-word

autoload -U promptinit; promptinit
prompt pure > /dev/null

source $ZSH/oh-my-zsh.sh

zprofile

[[ -f ~/.zshrc ]] && . ~/.zshrc

TTY="$(/usr/bin/tty | sed 's:.*/::')"
if [[ ! ${DISPLAY} && ${TERM} == 'linux' && ${TTY} == 'tty2' ]]; then
  unset TTY
  exec startx
fi

if (( $+commands[luarocks] )); then
    eval `luarocks path --bin`
fi

if [ -n "$DESKTOP_SESSION" ];then
    eval $(gnome-keyring-daemon --start)
    export SSH_AUTH_SOCK
fi
unset TTY

here is workaround in zprofile to start startx on tty2

if [[ ! ${DISPLAY} && ${TERM} == 'linux' && ${TTY} == 'tty2' ]]; then
  unset TTY
  exec startx
fi

Re: Can't login on TTY1

Contents of "$HOME/.cargo/env" ?

Comment the lines that source OMZ and the "eval" stuff.
As next step, comment "[[ -f ~/.zshrc ]] && . ~/.zshrc" in zprofile.

See whether that helps.
You do login on TTY1, you just log out instantly again.

Re: Can't login on TTY1

sorry I can't get how it would help, if all of that works correctly on tty2?

I commented everything from zprofile and zshrc, and no result. I think the problem is somewhere else not in zsh

contents of cargo/env

#!/bin/sh
# rustup shell setup
# affix colons on either side of $PATH to simplify matching
case ":${PATH}:" in
    *:"$HOME/.cargo/bin":*)
        ;;
    *)
        # Prepending path in case a system-installed rustc needs to be overridden
        export PATH="$HOME/.cargo/bin:$PATH"
        ;;
esac

Re: Can't login on TTY1

conditional path, depending on the TTY  - the cause migth possibly in /etc/profile* or ~/.profile - there's also ~/.zlogin
You can also try "chsh -s /usr/bin/bash" and the behavior for a different user account.

You do login and that should start your shell (you can add "tty >> /tmp/tty.logins" to the head fo .zshenv to verify that) but then immediately logout, what implies the shell immediately exits - for "reasons".
Another debugging approach would be to prepend

exec > /tmp/zsh.debug
exec 2>&1
set -x

seems clear now, some remainings of cdm blocking logging in on tty1

I was looking for this kind of debug and couldn't find it anywhere, you have helped a lot
great thanks seth !!
