Those warnings are pretty much normal...

As covered in the other thread I mentioned, kwalletmanager is a tray 
application.  It doesn't necessarily open a window, until you click that.

However, the plasma systray app hides many tray icons by default, so you 
may not even see it there, unless you configure the tray not to hide that 
icon.

As a result of both of these put together, people often think it hasn't 
started at all or that it crashed, when it's still running, just hidden 
in the tray.

So after you've started it manually, look for it in the systray list and 
set it to always shown there (it should be listed unless it DID crash), 
THEN you should see it in the tray, at which point you can click it to 
get the wallet management window.

Alternatively, at least in the 4.10-beta2 (aka 4.9.90) that I'm running, 
there's a kde wallet entry in kde settings, common appearance and 
behavior, account details.  That yields the same kwallet configuration 
dialog that can be reached from the systray icon, then window, altho it 
doesn't display the available wallets, like the wallet manager window 
does.
