Failed to get primary name message is confusing

[stephenh]

I already had volnoti running, but had forgotten about it, so when trying to start another one, kept getting the "Failed to get primary name" error:

https://github.com/davidbrazdil/volnoti/blob/master/src/daemon.c#L276

I found this very confusing and spent awhile trying to find out why that would happen...turns out I just already had volnoti running (duh).

Appending a "volnoti may already be running" to the end of the error message on line 276 would be helpful for new/forgetful users like myself.

When I finished compiling the indicator and runned it as so this error appeared, what can I do?:

$volnoti
ERROR: Failed to get the primary well-known name. (RequestName result != 1)

same issue here, just installed for the first time.

For anyone encountering that error message, it likely arises due to a volnoti instance already present.
