You won't be able to use your usual command shell hence
1. Restart your Ubuntu in Recovery Mode. You can do so by choosing Open Ubuntu with Advanced Option from your Grub menu
- For me, this issue occured because, I had wrongfully given access of some system files to
usernameinstead of myroot
There are other ways you you could get this issue so, definitely check out other resources as well.
Solution
0. You can check your ownership of / and /var folder
$ stat -c "%U %G" /
or,
$ stat -c "%U %G" /var/
You might be getting,username username
Start with giving ownership back to root
$ chown -R root:root /
it'll take a few minutesRemount.
$ mount -o remount,rw /
Restart these services.
- Tmpfiles-setup Services
$ systemctl start systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service - Timesyncd Service
$ systemctl start systemd-timesyncd.service
- Tmpfiles-setup Services
Reboot
$ reboot
If this didn't solve the issue for you, you might want to look here and then here
I hope this helped. Be well!
