OpenVZ + CentOS 6: installation problem

[unlim]

I have box with CentOS6 under the OpenVZ.

I install NoMachine as usual and get:

***************************************

#/usr/NX/bin/nxserver –status
NX> 161 Enabled service: nxserver.
NX> 162 WARNING: Cannot find X servers running on this machine.
NX> 162 WARNING: Connections to the physical display are not possible.
NX> 161 Enabled service: nxd.

***************************************

I tried to connect via NoMachine and get “No available sessions on this server”.

I read the https://www.nomachine.com/AR10K00710 and perform those steps.
Now I can connect via NoMachine but as result I see black screen.
No server desktop – just black screen always.

What to do ??

Could you run debug mode and send logs from the server to forum[at]nomachine[dot]com? Instructions how to collect logs: https://www.nomachine.com/DT04M00076#1.

Seems I sorted it out.

1. X install should be run as following:

yum -y groupinstall “Desktop” “Desktop Platform” “X Window System”
yum -y install xorg-x11-server-Xvfb

2. All steps from https://www.nomachine.com/AR10K00710 should be run as USER. Except the nxserver restart.

I create user’s script that contain all of those instructions and run it each time after server reboot.

After that I can use NX with my VDS as needed.
