xRDP forces quit on login after reboot

I have a CentOS 7 VM which I access via RDP from Windows 7. I have been able to access it just fine until I recently rebooted the VM. Now when I try to login via RDP I get to the xRDP login screen and after putting in my user name and password the screen goes black and force closes after a couple of seconds. I can login via SSH from another CentOS VM. I have also tested xRDP from that CentOS VM and the result is the same. I am able to login using other user accounts. What types of logs should I be looking at to diagnose the problem?



edit: Adding the log contents from a log a found that seems relevant "xrdp-sesmn.log"
