This is because starting sessions wrapped in dbus-run-session is a new addition in the latest X2Go Server versions only. > I have not been able to find any explanation for what this error means > or how to avoid it. This is not really an error. I mean, naturally it is, since you will miss functionality (mostly concurrent sessions support for one user if the desktop environment needs a special dbus instance for every session), but starting a session should still work, provided there's not already a DE instance running for the user that tries to start a session. Even then, some DEs are more or less strict on the requirements for parallel sessions - XFCE for instance starts up regardless, while MATE requires a private dbus instance. Note that RH/EPEL/C7 does not feature the required binary in any package, so on these platforms you'll always get the missing dbus wrapper notification. > We have tried running different window managers like XFCE > and GNOME and all produce the same result. GNOME in RH/EPEL/C7 won't work. XFCE should. You're actual problem is likely a different one, but I cannot tell what exactly. You probably want to look into ~/.xsession-x2go-*-errors, maybe also enable the debug loglevel in /etc/x2go/x2goserver.conf (no need to restart anything, just spawn a new session) and on the client-side install the debug version of X2Go Client (x2goclient.debug.exe; it's contained in the installer, if you don't have that installed yet, just re-run the installer and make sure to select this option since by default it's not installed automatically) and get a client log via x2goclient.debug.exe > x2goclient-debug.log 2>&1 in a Windows cmd.exe instance (yes, redirection works like that even on Windows).
