No connection possible, after gnome installation

[cdarsac]

Hi,

Only for convenience, I have installed gnome graphique environnement on my test Proxmox server.

However I can't connect to the server with new graphic log-in screen


After I have checked my keybord by taping my password into username field to verify, and it seems good.

while ssh connection continues to function normally



I don’t see what my mistake is.
Do you know that ?

Maybe Gnome does not allow root, and you need to disable the check?

Thank you, "avw", you have find the solution to help me.

From https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/284772/gnome-3-is-not-allowing-me-to-log-in-as-root:

You should edit the file /etc/pam.d/gdm-password commenting the line that contains the root user check:

#auth required pam_succeed_if.so user != root quiet_success
