What you suggested did fix the issue, nevertheless I noticed that Ubuntu began acting up ever since the problem began (probably because of something I installed / uninstalled during the days prior and after my question -maybe the upgrade from 14.04 to 14.10) and I decided to reinstall 14.04 –Carlos Nov 14 '14 at 0:26 add a comment| Your Answer draft saved draft discarded Sign up or log in Sign up using Google Sign up using Facebook Sign up using Email and Password Post as a guest Name Email P

updated December 4, 2012 in CentOS, RedHat and Friends, TroubleshootingI am using CentOS 5 on my laptop. If I open gnome-terminal by right http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/there-was-an-error-creating-the-child-process-for-this-terminal/ clicking the desktop, I am getting an error that read as follows:
There was an error creating the child process for this terminalHow do I fix this http://www.compdigitec.com/labs/2009/05/12/fixing-there-was-an-error-creating-a-child-process-for-this-terminal/ problem and open a terminal by right clicking the Debian / Ubuntu / CentOS / Fedora / RHEL / Red hat Enterprise Linux 5.x desktop system? This error creating problem is related to devpts (also known as Unix98 pty naming) file system. The devpts must be mounted on /dev/pts. Before opening the pseudo-terminal slave, you or the process must pass the master's file descriptor. From the man page:The file /dev/ptmx is a character file with major number 5 and minor number 2, usually there was an of mode 0666 and owner.group of root.root. It is used to create a pseudo-terminal master and slave pair. When a process opens /dev/ptmx, it gets a file descriptor for a pseudo-terminal master (PTM), and a pseudo-terminal slave (PTS) device is created in the /dev/pts directory.In order to solve your problem mount /dev/pts. This is required when opening a pseudo terminal. Edit /etc/fstab: # vi /etc/fstab Because /dev/pts is needed when , missing mounting point /dev/pts in file /etc/fstab will produce this error. Verify that ptsfs is mounted: $ mount | grep pts Sample outputs:devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,noexec,nosuid,gid=5,mode=620)If devpts is not mounted, type the following command as root user to mount it: # mount -t devpts devpts /dev/pts Also, edit the file /etc/fstab, enter: # vi /etc/fstab Add the following line if no such line exists in /etc/fstab:devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0Save and close the file. You can reboot the machine to test new changes. Share this tutorial on:TwitterFacebookGochild process for this terminal" By admin | May 12, 2009 Update (2009-08-27): If you are missing mountdevsubfs.sh.dpkg-dist, you can download it here. After a recent upgrade to Ubuntu 9.04 on a computer, GNOME Terminal and xterm stopped working suddenly by displaying an error message that read "There was an error creating a child process for this terminal." This is caused by a bug resulting from the unauthorized changes to mountdevsubfs.sh. To fix it, take the following steps: Switch to a terminal that works by pressing Ctrl+Alt+F1 twice. (press Ctrl+Alt+F7 to restore desktop) Login to Ubuntu (type in your username followed by your password). Enter "sudo mv /etc/init.d/mountdevsubfs.sh /etc/init.d/mountdevsubfs.sh.old"to move the old mountdevsubfs.sh out. (Type in your password, again). Enter "sudo cp /etc/init.d/mountdevsubfs.sh.dpkg-dist /etc/init.d/mountdevsubfs.sh" to restore the dpkg backup. Shutdown and restart the computer by typing "sudo shutdown now -r". (OR) Press Ctrl+Alt+F7 and shutdown through the GUI. If you found this article helpful or useful, please help Compdigitec spread the word.
