"no session for PID XXXX"

This error jumps out every time I start LXDE since a few days ago. A few things I did recently were:
- I upgraded system with ‘pacman -Syu'
- I installed android-sdk, etc

This error doesn't give any serious problems but is very annoying so I'd like very much get rid of it.
Thanks for any instructions.

Having the same problem but only when attempting to start vncserver (lxde) from a systemd user service.  Related to my problem?  https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/42703

FWIW I get the same error when trying to start  vncserver from a cronjob at startup (and have for six months).  I haven't found a non-interactive way to start vncserver that doesn't throw this error with LXDE.

@mwillems - If ran as a system service (see the tigervnc wiki) it works fine.

Re: "no session for PID XXXX"

fwiw -

i had the same problem for a while (using lxpolkit without lxsession).
after another "pacman -Syu" it went away; afaiu the most recent systemd update (224) fixed "it".
