[X2Go-Dev] Bug#1230: x2go fails unhelpfully when a session fails to start

Package: x2goserver
Version: 4.0.1.20
When a username is rejected by the 'valid username' test (see separate
bug report<https://bugs.x2go.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1229>), the
session doesn't fail, but simply seems to hang, giving no feedback about
the problem, nor, as far as I can see, reporting anything in the logs.
To reproduce, attempt to log in using a username such as '123x'. The
session doesn't complete the setup, leaving the user at a blank screen.
Suggestion: a user-visible error message should be produced, and an
informative message sent to the system log.
Best wishes,
Norman
