#51466 closed defect

Zenity works for many commands but not for notification — at Version 2

Port: zenity

Description (last modified by mf2k (Frank Schima))

ElCapitan with all ports up to date

I installed xinit and xorg-server as advertised in ticket:42739 and rebooted but the following problem remains.

--notification commands do not show a zenity dialog and report an error 

zenity --notification --text "show me something."

** (zenity:2501): WARNING **: Error showing notification: The connection is closed

by contrast (but with a warning), I can run 

zenity --info --text "show me something."
Gtk-Message: GtkDialog mapped without a transient parent. This is discouraged.

Thanks for any hint to improve this
