SUSE Slowroll – Can’t connect Error 108 / 104

[baf1]

After a recent OS version update to SUSE Slowroll (a Tumbleweed derivative), unable to connect from Window 10 machine. Get the Error 108 message at the very last step in physical display connection process.

Trying to connect from a SUSE Leap 15.5 Linux machine to the same Slowroll server produces the same result, but with error 104. Session log has first mention of error saying

290.885 ProxySession/ProxySession: ERROR! Session failure in stage ‘StateWaitingProxyVersion’.

Windows 10 client: NoMachine Enterprise Client 8.11.3

Linux Server: NoMachine free 8.11.3_4_x86_64 with KDE desktop

Linux Client: SUSE Leap 15.5 (KDE desktop) NoMachine 8.11.3

Are you able to send us client and server-side logs so we can check them? You can extract them using the instructions here: https://kb.nomachine.com/DT07S00243. For the client-side logs (the Windows’ ones will suffice) see “Fourth step” in that document.

Send them to forum[at]nomachine[dot]com. Please use the title of this topic as the subject of your email.

Server and client log files sent as requested. Thanks!

Hi, from the logs you sent we confirm that you are encountering two issues, both already known, initially reported on different distributions. The main capture method nor the fallback work correctly.

Capture of the Wayland desktop by EGL doesn’t work with KDE Plasma 6

Attaching to the physical desktop could fail on Rocky Linux 8 with Wayland

Until the fixes are released for those Trouble Reports, you can try disabling Wayland and use X.Org instead, or try with an alternative desktop environment.

Thanks for investigating this issue. In retrospect, the determination makes sense as the connection problems started when the server was updated to a new OS release where Wayland is used as the default.  I look forward to seeing this problem resolved in a future NM release.
