First - Yes on the relative path. Had to use it. Two - I could NOT for the life of me get the VNC to work. I even increased the storage to something like 1024m. Somewhere I read info that VNC used some figure. SO, I tried SSH and that worked. I was getting the info you are seeing below. Suggest you try SSH with the relative pathing and I think it will work for you.
