Can you ssh in with the same credentials? If its 6.0 it has the usual symptoms of a full partition potentially VMware Knowledge Base

If so you may have to log in with the grub as per VMware Knowledge Base

so SSh works or not

[chenrui39]

I did not log in via ssh， And ssh is normal。 I can log in through other users, other users can log in through ssh。

[johncol]

ok, to clarify

ssh is normal, is this with root user or another user?

Other users can log in with ssh, are they using root or another user?

Can these other users log into the shell as well as ssh or is it just you experiencing the issue?

When you/ or (another user) run df -h when logged in what do you get ?

[johncol]

can you run the command below to check the root password

chage -l root

[chenrui39]

The root user's permissions are no problem, and the password has not expired.

I found that it is root to log in and it will automatically exit.

[chenrui39 · Accepted solution]

The problem has been solved

Reason: "/bin/bash/" in /etc/passwd is more /

Correct: root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash

Thank you very much for your help!
