Hello Folks. Follow up my previous E-mail, I can compile and install both FreeRDP-WebConnect and FreeRDP successfully.
I follow the guidance provided by Fcarlier to compile and install both FreeRDP-WebConnect and FreeRDP provided by GitHub/cloudbase in Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS (Precise Pangolin, ubuntu-12.04.2-desktop-i386.iso released in February 2012) . http://fcarlier.azurewebsites.net/post/Web-Based-Remote-Console-Access-to-Hyper-V-VMs1 when I access the remote Windows 7 desktop (Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI)) using cloudbase FreeRDP-WebConnect/wsgate and port 3389, I met the same issue #7 (screen refresh/repaint with windows 7 RDP session) opened by MvdLande last year.https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP-WebConnect/issues/7 Fcarlier suggested that PCB (vmID): You can obtain this ID by executing the following Windows PowerShell command on your Hyper-V server. However, it seems that Windows 7 has no such feature for creating Hyper-V server and obtaining PCB (vmID). Another issue is that wsgate server "crashes" every 4 hours, that is, we cannot access wsgate using web browser. Would you please give me some guidance or hint on solving these two issues or the potential root cause of these two issues related to wsgate (FreeRDP-WebConnect)? Thank you very much. If I fix these two issues, I will share the source code with the community. If I use Ubuntu command xfreerdp -u usename -p password hostip to connect remote Windows 7 desktop, it shows a disconnection error: Unable to get current time zone rule. Instead I can only use FreeRDP-WebConnect/wsgate Firefox web browse to connect remote Windows 7 desktop. However, if I use sudo apt-get install freerdp-x11, I can use Ubuntu command xfreerdp -u usename -p password hostip to connect remote Windows 7 desktop. The issue # 7 does not exist -- Screen can refresh/repaint smoothly. This means that screen refreshing/repainting issue existing in the interaction between FreeRDP and FreeRDP-WebConnect/wsgate. The ACK response packet was sent back to FreeRDP client, but FreeRDP-WebConnect/wsgate fails to deliver the screen refreshing packets to web browser. Thank you very much.
