Hello.
I am running Linux Mint 20.2 on both a server and client system, with
Xpra versions 4.2.3-r12 (server) and xpra v4.3-r30655 (g1e8a46dce)
(client). I have also tried the 4.2.3 release on the client, with no
noticeable difference respecting my problem.
There have been a number of bugs reported recently with ssh connections:
https://github.com/Xpra-org/xpra/issues/3383
https://github.com/Xpra-org/xpra/issues/3372
https://github.com/Xpra-org/xpra/issues/3330
https://github.com/Xpra-org/xpra/issues/3295
Perhaps it is one of those?
I would have expected the 4.3-r30655 client to include this fix though.
Until recently, I could connect either through the graphical launcher
or the command-line client. However, presently, the laucher invariably
fails to connect. No error dialog box appears, or other useful
indication of a problem. The connection window simply drops at some
point after the password prompt. From the command line, however, the
issue does not present. Connection is successful, and I see no
worrisome messages among the console output.
Previously, both methods had worked. Recently, the server was restored
from backup, to a different VM in the same hypervisor. The only
difference might be certain unique identifiers, such as MAC address or
disk partition UUIDs.
I cannot find any log files that might help discover a problem reported
by the graphical launcher client. I have looked in ~/.xpra and
~/.settings/xpra on both server and client.
Try:
xpra launcher --debug ssh
The command output will include all ssh connection messages.
(I assume that you're using ssh to connect - please include the command
lines if that is not the case)
Where might I look for an indication of the source of the problem? What
suggestions might anyone offer to resolve?
I would try the command line above whilst keeping an eye on your
server's ssh log file.
Cheers,
Antoine
Thank you for your help.
