Hi all, I am having the same issue on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. I am not able to logout. Juhala actually gave me an interesting clue.
I notice that: gnome-session-quit --logout doesn't work BUT gnome-session-quit --logout --no-prompt works well. So may be, it doesn't work because the system is waiting for a confirmation dialog to be closed. That's why the first time you launched the previous command, nothing happens and the next times, the following error occurs: Error org.gnome.SessionManager.NotInRunning: Logout interface is only available during the Running phase On my environment, there is a workaround if you don't mind not having a confirmation dialog before logout. You have to deactivate the prompt. In order to implement that, you can add the following line : gsettings set org.gnome.SessionManager logout-prompt false at the end of ~/.bashrc -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1448418 Title: Logout not working in Cairo Dock To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cairo-dock/+bug/1448418/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
