NoMachine server on Arch no longer connects, Error is 22, ‘Invalid argument’.

[pomodoro]

I’ve installed NoMachine Server on a PC running Arch Linux and have been connecting to this PC from another one running Windows 10 on the same LAN for two months without issue, yesterday suddenly the connection was dropped, since then I can no longer connect successfully, when I connect the remote desktop appears for 2 o 3 seconds and the connection closes.

Tried lots of things, reinstalling both client and server, restarting both machines several times but nothing solves the issue.

The following error is printed on the client session log (It’s the same error every time):

41464 28732 2023-04-28 18:42:27 489.809 Io/Io: ERROR! Descriptor FD#16732 out of range in method ‘pipe’ context [A].

I’ve also attached logs collected from sever.

It could be a client-side issue. We would need full Player logs from Windows machine you are connecting from, so we can check. You can post them here or submit to forum[at]nomachine[dot]com.

It was indeed a client-side issue, I don’t know what triggered it, but after installing a new version of my video card drivers on the client machine, the crash solved by itself.
