Hi, I'm completely new to Xpra, so please forgive me if I'm not providing the right diagnostics ;)
Quick summary: when trying to connect xpra from Windows 7 to RHEL 7.4 over SSH, the connection fails with the following message: 2018-07-13 12:21:02,765 Error: failed to receive anything, not an xpra server? 2018-07-13 12:21:02,765 could also be the wrong protocol, username, password or port The client and server versions are the same, and the ssh connection appears to work in any other context I can try it. Detail: My setup is: - Server: - RHEL 7.4 - Xpra 2.3.2-v19729 using the yum repo (I tried the latest 2.3.3-..., but downgraded to ensure the client/serer were same version for testing) - Python 2.7.5 - public key in authorized_keys - Client: - Windows 7 Pro - Xpra 2.3.2-v19729 (latest MSI on website) - Python 2.7.9 (not sure if the windows package uses python from my path) - Pageant running with private ssh key I have installed Xpra as above and started the server successfully with "xpra start --start=xterm :1002". However, when I attempt to connect from windows to the server using "Xpra_Cmd attach ssh://ash@ukwok-pc1385-vpc7/1002" it fails to connect and I get the following. 2018-07-13 12:20:59,173 Xpra gtk2 client version 2.3.2-r19729 64-bit 2018-07-13 12:20:59,179 running on Microsoft Windows 7 2018-07-13 12:20:59,363 Warning: failed to import opencv: 2018-07-13 12:20:59,363 DLL load failed: Invalid access to memory location. 2018-07-13 12:20:59,363 webcam forwarding is disabled 2018-07-13 12:21:00,192 GStreamer version 1.14.1 for Python 2.7.15 64-bit 2018-07-13 12:21:00,593 OpenGL_accelerate module loaded 2018-07-13 12:21:00,627 Using accelerated ArrayDatatype 2018-07-13 12:21:01,296 Warning: vendor 'Intel' is greylisted, 2018-07-13 12:21:01,296 you may want to turn off OpenGL if you encounter bugs 2018-07-13 12:21:01,357 OpenGL enabled with Intel(R) HD Graphics 2018-07-13 12:21:01,428 desktop size is 3000x1920 with 1 screen: 2018-07-13 12:21:01,428 Default (793x508 mm - DPI: 96x96) 2018-07-13 12:21:01,428 DISPLAY1 1920x1200 at 0x381 (677x423 mm - DPI: 72x72) workarea: 1920x1200 2018-07-13 12:21:01,428 DISPLAY2 1080x1920 at 1920x0 (381x677 mm - DPI: 72x72) workarea: 1080x1920 2018-07-13 12:21:01,442 keyboard settings: layout=gb 2018-07-13 12:21:02,765 Error: failed to receive anything, not an xpra server? 2018-07-13 12:21:02,765 could also be the wrong protocol, username, password or port 2018-07-13 12:21:02,765 Connection lost (Full client and server log output with debug can be found in this gist: https://gist.github.com/puremourning/36d6beb1d0baefe3cb0b79ec7cbfe3dd). The server log does not change during the process (tailing /var/user/<uid>/:1002.log). I'm looking for some advice on how to debug this. It looks like an environment issue (xpra doesn't seem to be getting any data back from plink?), but I'm a bit stuck. Some things I have tried/confirmed: - Using unauthenticated TCP _does_ work, but is not allowable in corporate env due to infosec. - Using PuTTY to connect to the host works (ditto using putty's plink to echo hello). No password is required (pageant is working) (command putty\plink.exe -ssh ash@ukwok-pc1385-vpc7 echo hello). Hello is echo'd. - Using the bundled plink.exe (tortoise?) to connect to the account/host in question, no password is requested, but "hello" is *not* printed (command: plink -ssh ash@ukwok-pc1385-vpc7 echo hello) - Before setting up pageant (i.e. ssh-agent), all the above were tested while entering the account password manually, with the same results. - Using a proprietary windows x-server, I am able to connect to xpra from the server (i.e. to itself) with xpra attach. (i.e. start an xterm with display pointed at windows X server, attach to xpra, see xterm) Many thanks for any advice you may be able to provide. Naturally if there is any further information I can provide, just shout! Cheers, Ben This message is intended only for the stated addressee(s) and may be confidential.
