Ly display manager breaks after the first login

How installed it

sudo pacman -S ly
sudo systemctl disable lightdm
sudo systemctl enable ly
reboot

Steps to reproduce

1) Log into i3
2) Log out from i3
3) The error happens. I can no longer log in, and must use another tty to restart ly before I can try again.

Any ideas on how to debug/fix this problem? Thanks!
I’ll try to recreate this on a fresh install VM.

I’m unable to replicate this in a fresh VM.

Yep, I just ran Ly for a week, no problems…procedurally same as you, I think, though I may have edited the config also.

I’m just going to reinstall my system and try. I’ve been meaning to do a fresh install anyway.

Well I also didn’t run i3, but I ran cosmic and kde from ly.

After doing a clean reinstall, Ly is working without issues. I must’ve broken something when I was messing around with xorg a few months ago.
