The file name should be .xsession-errors , not .xsessions , since the
latter could provide a script that runs to initialise a user session,
IOW it's not a log file.

Usually the display manger redirects the output. If you aren't using a
display manager you need to do it

  startx 2> ~/.xsession-errors

Assuming you are using a display manager, you need to provide more
information.
