Server: NoMachine Workstation Subscription
Client: NoMachine for Mac
Upon successful connection to server, the remote desktop shows up on the client for a split second then closes itself.
When above happened, the following messages were recorded in nxserver.log (with varying pid # each time):
1147615 1147615 2024-10-31 18:57:55 755.153 NXNODE WARNING! Process ‘/bin/ps –ppid 1147697 -o pid=’ with pid ‘1147826/1147826’ finished with exit code 1 after 0,031 seconds.

1147615 1147615 2024-10-31 18:57:56 619.030 NXNODE ERROR! Session application terminated abnormally
Error: The remote application terminated unexpectedly.
A similar issue was reported in: https://forum.nomachine.com/topic/handler-for-virtual-desktop-session-terminated-immediately
Strangely, only one NX user in our team has this issue. The rest users can access the same NX server with no problem.
I attached that user’s log etc. in tarballs. All feedback appreciated.

November 4, 2024 at 11:53 #50598BritgirlKeymasterCan you send us .xsession-errors or/and journalct(system logs) from the NoMachine Workstation Server?

November 13, 2024 at 19:21 #50719BritgirlKeymasterTry changing the DefaultDesktopCommand key in node.cfg on the server by adding the
--disable-acceleration-check
option to the gnome-session command, e.g.:DefaultDesktopCommand "dbus-launch –exit-with-session gnome-session –session=ubuntu --disable-acceleration-check"
November 18, 2024 at 14:59 #50785jingyuncParticipantThanks for the advice. Does the NX server need to be restarted for this change to take effect? We made the change in node.cfg but haven’t restarted the NX server due to running jobs of other users, the issue seems to persist without the restart.
Also, this change seems universal while the above issue is user specific: from the same computer/NX client, the issue can be reproduced using one user’s username/passwd, while other users can launch NX session without any issue.
November 18, 2024 at 19:07 #50791BritgirlKeymasterYou don’t need to restart, the change will apply to any new virtual desktops. If there is no change when creating new virtual desktop sessions, it could be useful to see the journalctl after having applied the change to check what errors appear. But prior to that you should cleanup the gnome configuration in that specific user’s home.
November 23, 2024 at 23:26 #50857jingyuncParticipantThe journalctl log (pasted below) seemed identical to the old one.
Under that specific user’s home folder, we didn’t find any file like ~/.gnome, ~/.gnome2, ~/.nautilus, ~/.gconf, etc. Here are the folders under ~/.config/
- dconf
- enchant
- eog
- evolution
- gedit
- goa-1.0
- gtk-3.0
- ibus
- libreoffice
- matplotlib
- nautilus
- pulse
- update-notifier
- user-dirs.dirs
- user-dirs.locale
- yelp
Should we remove any of these folders to clean up the gnome config?
New journalctl log:
