Description Jonathan Kamens 2015-01-13 17:12:05 UTC

When I reboot my machine -- and I should mention that I have it configured to auto-login, so this may actually be caused by a login, not by a reboot, or perhaps by a login right after a reboot when not everything has settled yet -- colord logs 6 of these all within the same second:

Jan 13 10:17:32 jik2 colord: (colord:1488): Cd-WARNING **: failed to get session [pid 928]: Unknown error -2

I've checked multiple reboots, and it logs exactly six of these messages every time.

There are two problems here -- that something is going wrong and colord doesn't know what it is and therefore can't and doesn't provide a useful explanation in the log, and that since colord doesn't know what's going wrong, it's impossible to tell from the log whether it's something serious that I should be worried about.

Comment 1 Fedora End Of Life 2015-11-04 14:10:43 UTC

This message is a reminder that Fedora 21 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 21. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '21'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 21 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2015-12-02 07:23:20 UTC

Fedora 21 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-12-01. Fedora 21 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
