Thanks for the reply! I did have this ready for use, was just testing local recordings first.
[cid:image003.jpg@01D9A427.CF28D5E0] Correct, I don’t see any recordings at all? (in the folder) [cid:image005.jpg@01D9A427.CF28D5E0] [cid:image007.jpg@01D9A427.CF28D5E0] Sorry for the silly question, what kind out output would I be looking for in the logs?

We previously used the guac encoder to process the videos into m4v and then had a timed script to move the recordings to a nas for viewing the videos remotely. The new recording feature looked interesting and we wanted to try it out. I believe I have all the settings correct (for local recordings) although I never see recordings in the history tab I believe it has something to do with the user chowned to the folder. (How do I see what user runs guacd?) If you list the contents of the /var/lib/guacamole/recordings folder, are the recordings being created? If so, then the user running guacd has access and is fine; if not, that may be your issue. To see the user running guacd, do "ps -ef|grep guacd" - the user is the first column. Also, you don't necessarily have to switch to using the /var/lib/guacamole/recordings directory - if you already have a place to store recordings, you can continue to use that, you just need to set the recording-search-path property in guacamole.properties to that location and make sure both the Tomcat user (or group) and the guacd user (or group) have correct access to that folder. If you still have trouble, look at logs for both Tomcat and guacd and see if any errors are being logged, either when the recording is created (guacd) or Guacamole Client and the history extension are loaded (Tomcat). -Nick
