Before upgrading on new version BACKUP ALL DATA!!!
I upgraded to Ubuntu 24.04 (from Ubuntu 22.04).
After rebooting and login on my account I saw white background with message "Oh no! Something went wrong!". I tried to Log out, but it was not successful.
Solutions I read included next steps:
Before Log out, press next CTRL+ALT+F3. Login with your credentials and password.
-
Execute commands (of your wifi is disabled, then plug-in cable)
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade sudo dpkg --configure -a sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get autoremove sudo reboot
If these steps doesn't resolve your problem, then execute these commands. Use again CTRL+ALT+F3
sudo apt --fix-broken install
sudo dpkg --configure -a
sudo apt-get update
sudo reboot
This solution worked for me in error message "Oh no!Something get wrong."
Did you have other errors in upgrading on Ubuntu 24.04? How did you resolved problems?
If this was helpful share it with others to help each other.
TIP Additional which worked for others is command:
sudo apt reinstall ubuntu-desktop

Hi,
none of the above tips worked for me.
The solution was:
sudo apt reinstall ubuntu-desktop
For some reason some critical packages had disappeared and then Gnome could not start
Thank you Antonio on additional tips for solution. This one worked for me.
But I will added also this your solution, maybe it will work for someone other.
It worked. Phweks. Thank you
For me it was bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/...

Ended up doing a clean install. Not only "something went wrong", but I was also unable to connect to internet to do get new packages.
My wifi worked...at least something good. It was not worked internet using cable for ethernet?
