Thanks,
The results are quite intersting.
When run as you sugest I got :
Xpra shadow --bind-tcp=0.0.0.0:14500 --no-daemon

no_gtk()
File
"/Applications/Xpra.app/Contents/Resources/lib/python/xpra/scripts/main.py",
line 1730, in no_gtk
assert gtk.ver is None
So I played around for a bit with options to work around that and could
not make it go away so I just temporarily modified the
/Applications/Xpra.app/Contents/Resources/lib/python/xpra/scripts/main.py
putting a return in as below to see what would happen :
def no_gtk():
gtk = sys.modules.get("gtk") or sys.modules.get("gi.repository.Gtk")
return
It now works when run from the command line :

The performance is not amazing but that could be to do with the old
server I have running the firefox.
It also looks like the MAC version was built without server support:
Xpra start --bind-tcp=0.0.0.0:14500 --no-daemon
xpra initialization error:
invalid mode 'start'
So I'm not realy sure wheat the next step is.
I realy want to display back individual windows as opposed to shadowing
the whole desktop. Was there a reason for the OSX build the start was
not enabled or should I just build it myself on the Mac ?
Also my hack of putting the return in is hardly a long term solution :)
Any advice,
Thanks

Hi,
I’m trying to use a XPRA server on OS X Mojave. I was unsure if it would work
at all with OS X not being native X11 but I have XQuartz running and the
documentation seems to suggest it would.
Xpra on MacOS does not use X11 at all, so XQuartz is not needed.
I installed the dmg but the server button is not enabled, the shadow button is
but if I select it I can’t connect although an additional XPRA process is
started.
The shadow server should start, but it hasn't been tested on Mojave and
I have heard that some new "security" mechanisms may be getting in the way.
I use XPRA on Linux so have some experience.
Should it work. If so how do I start a server ?
The best way would be to install the PKG, if possible, then run the
server by hand:
Xpra shadow --bind-tcp=0.0.0.0:14500 --no-daemon
Keep an eye on that server log output and try to connect with a browser
on that port.
Cheers,
Antoine
Thanks
