Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: David Nall (nalldav) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: build succeeds but vncserver fails Initial Comment: I'm running fedora 17 in a vm player. I've gotten everything to build and all of the executables have been created but when running vncserver I get the following. WARNING: The first attempt to start Xvnc failed, possibly because the font catalog is not properly configured. Attempting to determine an appropriate font path for this system and restart Xvnc using this path ... sh: -c: line 0: syntax error near unexpected token '(' sh: -c: line 0: ./Xvnc :1 -desktop '(none):1 (h)' -auth /var/run/gdm/auth-for-h--gRYqCh/database -geometry 1024x768 -rfbwait 30000 -rfbauth /home/h/.vnc/passwd -rfbport 5901 -pn >> '/home/h/.vnc/(none):1.log' 2>&1 -fp /usr/share/X11/fonts/misc,/usr/share/X11/fonts/default/Type1 & echo $! >/home/h/.vnc/(none):1.pid' sh: -c: line 0: syntax error near token '(' sh: -c: line 0: 'cat /home/h/.vnc/(none):1.pid' Could not start Xvnc. I typed that in so there may me an error because i couldn't figure out how to copy and paste from a terminal. I'm not sure if it's the font path or not. I installed the X11-misc package. I tried adding /misc to the font path in the vncserver script with no success. Everything built just fine but this is what happens when executing vncserver. Can't find the syntax error either. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=1126848&aid=3589986&group_id=254363 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Monitor your physical, virtual and cloud infrastructure from a single web console.
