Here's a snippet at the end of my i3 config: exec --no-startup-id gnome-keyring-daemon exec --no-startup-id owncloud & I'm using gdm as my login manager. Upon logging in, I get a dialog box which reads: Enter password to unlock your login keyring The login keyring did not get unlocked when you logged into your computer If I enter my login password again, the owncloud applet starts fine. But what do I need to do to automatically unlock my keyring so that owncloud has access to it?

When I removed the line from my config, owncloud would start up just fine, and no longer ask me for my password.Sat, 10 Jan 2015 23:32:44 +0000https://faq.i3wm.org/question/5168/owncloud-applet-asks-for-password-when-starting-up/?answer=5321#post-id-5321
