lightdm fails to start when session startup script has minor issue #341

I've been diagnosing an issue I had logging in for at least an hour and eventually found out it was caused by a single line in my session startup script that failed.

When I logged in I would simply be returned to the login screen. All because feh couldn't find the picture to set as my background.

The log got overwritten since I fixed the issue but I posted what it used to look like:

[+17.13s] DEBUG: Seat seat0: Session stopped
[+17.13s] DEBUG: Seat seat0: Greeter stopped, running session
[+17.13s] DEBUG: Launching process 1008: /home/untitled1/autostart-scripts.sh
[+17.16s] DEBUG: Process 1008 exited with return value 1 <- feh --bg-fill file-name-with-space.jpg
recreate Greeter etc...
