Hi,
I’m using X2Go daily for years now. Today, while using a session, X2go crashed and that’s where it all started.
Server is a Centos 7 using XFCE and client is a Mac.
90% of the times a crash happens (rarely), I can resume the session and 10% I have to start a new one.
This time it was different and started my ordeal:
When trying to reconnect, I got a dbus error (failed to connect to socket, dbus connection refused).
Still got some sort of session but windows were all over the place and was unusable.
Reinstalled dbus, x2go and removed .x2go from client and server, as well .cache.
Reinstalled xfce, removed xfce, and installed MATE.
All these did not happen in one go. A trillion of step by step trials and errors (practically only errors)
Now, I can connect to MATE via ssh X11 (XQuartz). It works.
However, X2go refuses to connect with:
Agent Terminated Unexpectedly. Aborting Session Startup
Log files are not very informative, since not much seem to be happening (at least to me).
I’ve incorporated the debut logging, server-side, while –debug in the client shows the following:
x2go-INFO-1> "Starting X2Go Client 4.1.2.1..."

My .bashrc and .bash_profile do not output anything that might give rise also to the “Have stderr only, something must be wrong”.
Other things that might be interesting:
The user session folder seems to be created properly and populated with all the relevant files: keyboard options session.log sshd.pid state
Everything is owned by the user and I don’t seem to be able to find any permission issues.
The session.log is rather interesting
