Bug Description

First successful boot to an administrator account after complete upgrade from 11.10 to 12.04 via update-manager. Had issues logging into the existing administrator account. Removed that account, restarted system in recovery mode and used the terminal to add a new administrator account. After login received warning that unity-greeter had failed to start with the aforementioned error code.
