Hello Manel,
About "If I understand your approach, the user .xsession file modifies the
default XRDP behavior to automatically launch app.sh, right?"
Yes.
About "If I apply this change, on the start program connection field, what path
should I specify and how can I add the user parameters like ${GUAC_USERNAME}?"
We not configure a special start procedure or something in Guacamole. We
configured only a simple rdp login with user and password. This works with a
plain remotedesktop connection from a windows client too.
The procedure with the .xsession file is independent from Guacamole.

Hello,

If I apply this change, on the start program connection field, what path should
I specify and how can I add the user parameters like ${GUAC_USERNAME}?
Thanks!

Hello Manuel,
we solve this with this configuration in the user home directory. Don't forget
chmod +x /home/user/.xsession .
cat /home/user/.xsession
#!/usr/bin/env bash
/usr/bin/mutter --x11 --replace /usr/local/bin/app.sh
A simple xterm is possible too with
#!/usr/bin/env bash
/usr/bin/mutter --x11 --replace /usr/bin/xterm

Betreff: Start web application trough XRDP

Hello,
I want to use the "start application" feature of an RDP connection to
automatically launch a python script on an ubuntu desktop machine.
This python script receives some parameters like an url, ${GUAC_USERNAME} and
$[GUAC_PASSWORD], then using selenium the script launches a firefox, on kiosk
mode, goes to the web application and performs user login. Mention that Iwas
not able to directly launch python, but using a bash script like wrapper works.
Now the process works properly the first time that I connect, but the following
times the screen remains black and nothing happens. After restart xrdp service
works again.
This is the content of my bash script:
#!/bin/bash
exec /bin/sh /etc/X11/Xsession &
sleep 3
exec /usr/bin/python3 /home/ubuntu/ff.py $1 $2 $3 $4
I discovered that when the user closes firefox, the process remains in zombie
mode without being completely killed.
I don't understand at all how Ubuntu manages graphical user sessions. Could
someone help me to find what's wrong?
Thanks
Best regards.
