Re: Centos7 Cant start vncserver

Actually it is running:

netstat -tuln | grep 590
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:5901            0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:5902            0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:5903            0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
tcp6       0      0 :::5901                 :::* LISTEN
tcp6       0      0 :::5902                 :::* LISTEN
tcp6       0      0 :::5903                 :::* LISTEN

Why 5901 and 2 are listening, I don't know...

when I vnc to my server I get that basic nasty blank X11 screen. I modified /root/.vnc/xstartup with:

exec /bin/sh /etc/xdg/xfce4/xinitrc

But restarting vncserver@:3 does not seem to get the vnc client to get my xfce desktop, only the blank x11 desktop.

Oh and restart gives the same errors as start does, but the pids are there:

# ls .vnc/
homebase.home.htt:1.log  homebase.home.htt:2.pid  passwd
homebase.home.htt:1.pid  homebase.home.htt:3.log  xstartup
homebase.home.htt:2.log  homebase.home.htt:3.pid

I see:

cat .vnc/homebase.home.htt\:1.log

 vncext:      VNC extension running!

/root/.vnc/xstartup: line 5: exec: /etc/xdg/xfce4/xinitrc: cannot execute: Permission denied

2.log has different errors.

3.log actually has connection information (as I am connecting to 5903?)

thanks

OK, first time configuring vncserver on Centos7. I have read through a bunch of old messages here on vncserver and thought I had it. Obviously not.

1) cp /usr/lib/systemd/system/vncserver@.service /etc/systemd/system/vncserver@.service
2)    vi /etc/systemd/system/vncserver@.service

I changed <USER> in both places to root

3)    systemctl daemon-reload
4)    systemctl enable vncserver@:3.service
5)    vncpasswd
        To create /root/.vnc/passwd
6)    systemctl start vncserver@:3.service
