Issue with login - change directory failed: Permession denied

hello everyone, I’ve been using Tumbleweed for a while with no login issues.
but few days ago i deleted a Fedora installation on another partition and installed Ubuntu. i have the /home (the partition not the user folder) shared between the 2 distros, the problem is that after i installed Ubuntu i cannot log in normally to Tumbleweed and i keep getting that error:

i tried the chmod and chown, tried to make a new user and still same issue, what else could be the reason?

On Tumbleweed, what does executed as User
id

Same on Ubuntu.

Is Ubuntu still using 500 for the 1st user? Good shot.

hello again, the issue was fixed after running touch /.autorelabel in Tumbleweed.

about the UID and GID, it is 1000 for the both users

im not sure if the remains from Fedora’s SELinux cause it or what.

and thanks for the responses.
