Hi Walid
Thanks for the reply. I tried the suggested x2goterminate-session command, but after running the commands, both sessions still appear using x2golistsessions_root.
fangq@taote:/var/log$ sudo x2goterminate-session trainer1-51-1502204631_stDXFCE_dp32
fangq@taote:/var/log$ sudo x2goterminate-session trainer7-52-1502214187_stDXFCE_dp32
fangq@taote:/var/log$ sudo /usr/sbin/x2golistsessions_root

Any other thoughts? thanks

Just go on the X2Go server and do x2goterminate-session <session id>
For exmple, in your case :
x2goterminate-session trainer1-51-1502204631_stDXFCE_dp32

Objet: [X2Go-User] How to purge zombie sessions after a user is deleted
I am not sure if this is a bug, but it looks like x2gocleansessions keeps trying to open some previously saved session created by a deleted user. This leaves a log like the following in the /var/log/auth.log and this log continues to add in an infinite loop
Aug 22 18:17:32 taote su[6146]: - ??? root:trainer7
Aug 22 18:17:32 taote su[6147]: No passwd entry for user 'trainer7'
Aug 22 18:17:32 taote su[6147]: FAILED su for trainer7 by root
if I kill the x2gocleansessions process, the log stops.
if I run
sudo /usr/sbin/x2golistsessions_root
I can see the two zombie sessions

but could not find a way to purge then. Those two user accounts (trainer1 and trainer7) were created for an event previously, but after the event, both accounts have been deleted.
A reboot does not solve the issue. As long as you run "sudo service x2goserver restart", the error log comes back and keeps repeating itself.
Can someone suggest a way to purge these zombie sessions so that I don't see the error logs again?
thanks
