I was working in a Oracle Linux server through XRDP with Xvnc(TigerVNC) and the server crash. After the crash I only can access the server through XRDP with Xorg, but not with Xvnc, when I try to access using VNC I only have a black screen with the mouse pointer.

The file .xstartup was missing, the file vncserver@:1.service located in /etc/systemd/system was missing.

I try to reconfigure the vnc service

  • Stop the service xrdp and vncserver
  • Delete lock files loacated in /tmp
  • Delete .Xauthority from home folder

  • Create ~/.vnc/xstartup file

    unset SESSION_MANAGER
    unset DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS
    /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc
    vncserver -kill $DISPLAY

  • Create /etc/systemd/system/vncserver@:1.service

    [Unit]
    Description=Remote desktop service (VNC)
    After=syslog.target network.target

    [Service]
    Type=forking

    ExecStartPre=/bin/sh -c '/usr/bin/vncserver -kill %i > /dev/null 2>&1 || :'
    ExecStart=/usr/sbin/runuser -l vncuser -c "/usr/bin/vncserver %i"
    PIDFile=/home/vncuser/.vnc/%H%i.pid
    ExecStop=/bin/sh -c '/usr/bin/vncserver -kill %i > /dev/null 2>&1 || :'

    [Install]
    WantedBy=multi-user.target

  • Start xrdp service

  • execute systemctl daemon--reload

  • Execute systemctl vncserver@:1.service

  • Execute vncserver

The issue persist. I can connect using Xorg, but with Xvnc I only get a black screen with the mouse pointer

The server only have GNOME as GUI

Any Advice

Thanks In advance
