This issue appears to have been caused by this commit: https://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=x2gobroker.git;a=commit;h=f9dd59dd656019f593d37d234a2859cc17696061
This is supported by the fact that I could work around the bug by adding in the deleted code in a wsgi wrapper script as follows: # cat /etc/x2go/wsgi/x2gobroker.wsgi #!/usr/bin/python3 from x2gobroker.loggers import logger_broker, logger_access, logger_error, tornado_log_request, PROG_NAME exec(open("/usr/bin/x2gobroker").read())
