Hello,
You may want to make sure Pulse audio is installed.
For your file transfer look at the image below, the key here is the
${GUAC_USERNAME} this will create a folder in the path specified for the user
account logging in.
Also never use 777 set the permission recursive chmod –R 755
/home/guacamole/share.
Then you will need to make sure the guacd service is owner of the folder path
chown –r guacd: /home/guacamole/share
Note the –r maybe –R if you get an error.
Hope this helps.
Thank You

Subject: Enabling Audio and/or Drive Breaks RDP
Hello!
We have deployed Guacamole 1.4.0 on a Debian box and we are able to RDP into
remote machines through the web interface, so long as we disable audio and
prevent the ability to transfer files to and from the box.
The lack of audio isn't a huge deal, we don't really expect anyone to watch the
latest Avengers movie via RDP but we do need to be able to send files to the
remote machines.
On the box hosting Guacamole, we made a folder called "share" and (for
troubleshooting at least) set the permission to 777. This is located at
/etc/guacamole/share. Within the web interface, we set the Drive name to
"share" and the drive path to "/home/guacamole" (we also tried
"/home/guacamole/share"). We have tried both automatically creating the drive
and not auto creating it but it doesn't seem to make a difference.
As soon as we try to turn it on, the Guacamole server will connect to the
remote machine (with a black screen) but as soon as the mouse is moved, the
connection is dropped and we get kicked.
The guacamole .so file is where it should be in the freerdp2 folder based on
the guides I've read online. My team and I have spent time reading and trying
everything we can find online regarding these issues but it hasn't worked
unfortunately.
Is this something that any of you amazing people have run into? Any tips.
tricks, guidance, or even just words of encouragement would be great.
Thanks!
