Re: xfce4-notifyd not running

You should read this: https://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?id=11382

See if the info there lets you solve it (if so, tell us, please!). If not, let's start:

Which distro are you using?
Are you using a display manager (DM like lightdm or gdm)? If so, which one?
If you are not using a display manager, how are you starting Xfce?

Re: xfce4-notifyd not running

This didn't solve my problem.
I am using xubuntu and display manager lightdm.
Edit: I solved my problem by creating "org.freedesktop.Notification.service" file in /usr/share/dbus-1/
And pasting

[D-BUS Service]
Name=org.freedesktop.Notifications
Exec=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/xfce4/notifyd/xfce4-notifyd
