Mike,
Ok looking at what seems to be installed – it does look like freerdp updated -
I see
freerdp-devel.x86_64 2.0.0-1.rc4.el7 @base
freerdp-libs.x86_64 2.0.0-1.rc4.el7 @base
My latest update (5) shows
freerdp-devel-1.0.2-15.el7_6.1.x86_64 @updates
2.0.0-1.rc4.el7.x86_64 @base
freerdp-devel-1.0.2-15.el7_6.1.x86_64 @updates
freerdp-devel-2.0.0-1.rc4.el7.x86_64 @base
Attempting yum history undo 5 gives me
Error no packages available to install
So how do I go about either using the "guacamole/guacd" Docker image – OR
How would I go about upgrading my entire Guac install. – Or moving my user and
system database to a fresh install.
Just pointing to the proper instruction pages would help.
I’m no expert – but am able to follow directions – Setting up Guac was as
simple as following the directions and everything just worked, so knowing what
to do “under the hood” escapes me.

Forgive my ignorance, but where would I read the guacd log? I don’t see any
logs by that name.
guacd logs to syslog. On CentOS, this will likely be the systemd journal, which
you would access using the "journalctl" command.
My suspicion is that upgrades were indeed applied, and that the RDP support
cannot be loaded when connection attempts are made because it was built against
an older version of FreeRDP. CentOS 7 recently switched their FreeRDP packages
over to FreeRDP 2.0.0-rc4, which is not compatible with software built against
an older version. Up until recently, guacamole-server also could not be built
against FreeRDP 2.0.0 as the API is entirely different.
If this is the case, and you find the guacd logs, you should see a message
nothing that support for RDP could not be found, and you will need to do one of
the following:
1) Revert the upgrade, bringing back the older version of the freerdp package
OR:
2) Install the freerdp1.2-devel package from EPEL, which Fedora has provided as
a stopgap for those that need an older FreeRDP, and rebuild guacamole-server.
It will not work as-is, as this version of FreeRDP is also incompatible, but it
is supported by guacamole-server 1.0.0 and older. ... OR:
3) Try building the "staging/1.1.0" branch of guacamole-server, as we recently
added support for FreeRDP 2.0.0 while also dropping support for older versions
of the library. ... OR:
4) Stop the local guacd service and use the "guacamole/guacd" Docker image
instead.
If you're in a time crunch to get things back up, I'd recommend trying the
Docker approach for now.
