Notice that it's saying permission is denied for /bin/bash. When you log in as root, are the permissions on /bin/bash correct? It should be 755: [🎩1036 bcotton@fpgm ~ ]$ ls -l /bin/bash -rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 2187664 May 13 08:18 /bin/bash [🎩1037 bcotton@fpgm ~ ]$ If not, that's the immediate problem. You can check for other files with incorrect attributes with the `rpm -Va` command.
