After an upgrade to Fedora 41, I can no longer connect to NX. I can see this in my server log:

I guess nxexec crashes for some reason, but I don’t know why.

Hi, are you able to send us the server-side logs so we can check them? You can extract them using the instructions here: https://kb.nomachine.com/DT08U00298#1.1, by clicking Take logs in Settings > Server > Security. For the moment, no specific debug level is required.
Send them to forum[at]nomachine[dot]com. Please use the title of this topic as the subject of your email. Thanks!
Hi, OK, sent. I have ssh connection to the box, but no graphics, so some remote debugging is possible. Thanks!
P.U.
We got the logs, thanks and we are investigating. Could you try, in the meantime, enabling Wayland instead of using x.Org?
OK, I’ve tried to restart with Wayland session. This time, server logs look different.

P.U.
Hi pupu,
since I suspect the root cause may be the same, please retrieve the same information that was asked by Bilbotine in this post: https://forum.nomachine.com/topic/black-screen-connecting-to-rocky-linux-9#post-54100. Do that after going to back to the original situation that was giving you the crash.
Thank you in advance for your help.
Hi,
I’ve experimented with Wayland, upgraded to Fedora 42, but the problem persists. First, I have Wayland installed, but plasma-workspace-wayland package is no longer present in the distribution, which confused me. Second, I haven’t found any useful information in system or app logs, only this one on the client side – it may be red herring, but let’s take a look at it. I really need to have NX connection running…
Thanks
P.U.
