Hi,

I tried to start "/opt/TurboVNC/bin/vncserver" automatically at boot time 
by a systemd unit (OS is Ubuntu 16.04). I used these instructions:

https://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/systemd/Units/
https://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/systemd/Service_Units/
https://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/systemd/systemctl/

This is the content of my service unit file:

[Unit]
Description=TurboVNC-Server

[Service]
Type=simple
User=torsten
Group=users
WorkingDirectory=~
ExecStart=/opt/TurboVNC/bin/vncserver

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

When I start "/opt/TurboVNC/bin/vncserver" manually, 
"/opt/TurboVNC/bin/vncserver -list" writes this:

TurboVNC server sessions:

X DISPLAY #     PROCESS ID
:1              14184

The displayed process id represents the Xvnc process created by vncserver, 
which is the X server used to display the TurboVNC session.

When I kill this server using "/opt/TurboVNC/bin/vncserver -kill :1" and 
start the above service unit using systemctl, "/opt/TurboVNC/bin/vncserver 
-list" writes the same (only the prosess id differs), but a process with 
the new process id doesn't exist (and the TurboVNC Viewer fails to 
connect). I compared the log files written by both vncserver calls. They 
are completely identical (only the time stamps differ). So where is the 
Xvnc process gone when started through systemd? Is there a way to get more 
log file content, that could tell me, why Xvnc won't run? If needed I can 
give some more detailed infos.

Kind Regards
Torsten
