[Bug 1535058] Re: applications close instantly when launched from the launcher or dash

[David Planella]

In my case it's disabled, but even after enabling it manually, I'm
getting the same errors that I had a few months back:

"cgmanager:do_create_main: pid 2118 (uid 1000 gid 1000) may not create
under /run/cgmanager/fs/freezer"

http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/15635909

I'm not sure if this is a red herring, but in any case, even when the
service is running, this bug is still reproducible and apps won't start.
I.e. ever since I got hit by this bug, I've not been able to dogfood the
Unity 8 session.

  xenial
  applications close instantly when launched from the launcher or dash
  but... if i launch the apps from a VT (for ex firefox using Xmir or gedit native --), the app loads ok.

  what close instantly means.. it opens the window and then it closes
  instantly in ~0.3s
