Hi Norbert, I don't think it is RFB's fault either. I did give the complete steps I did. Perhaps just a wait loop after each of the steps is all it takes, 'cos since I did those steps using the local vm by hand before the "save and quit". I know how to wait for RFBServer to start (1), but I'm not sure how to wait for the load to finish or whether I need to.
Anyway, I'm happy now since RFB is running fine with the manually created image. Thanks! ... and all this is pretty cool! -Kumar (1) [RFBServer current isRunning] whileFalse: [1 second asDelay wait] On 25 Oct, 2013, at 7:51 PM, [email protected] wrote: > Date: Fri, 25 Oct 2013 16:21:49 +0200 > From: Norbert Hartl <[email protected]> > To: Pharo users users <[email protected]> > Subject: Re: [Pharo-users] Pharo 2.0 with RFBServer with -headless > Message-ID: <[email protected]> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset=windows-1252 > > Hi Srikumar, > > can you tell what other software you have installed in your image.
