I just upgraded from Fedora 25 workstation to 26 workstation. I also updated to the latest version of NoMachine on both the Fedora machine and the Windows machine I’m trying to connect from. When trying to connect, the screen shows the “Connecting….” message for quite a while then goes to the error of:
“The session negotiation failed.
Error: Cannot create a new display, please contact your system administrator”
When I was in front of the Linux box, I have a desktop session running with no issues. I am working on getting a way to be able to send the server logs if needed, but currently am not able to. I do have the client side logs if needed though. Thanks in advance for any help that can be offered.
What desktop environment do you have on that fedora 26?
Do you try to connect to physical desktop or create new virtual desktop?
Could You provide output of “ps -ef | grep -i -E ‘wayland|xorg'”?The desktop environment is Gnome.
When connecting I initially get this message – “Cannot detect any display running. Do you want NoMachine to create a new display and proceed to connect to the desktop?” I click on “Yes” and after that the screen shows the connecting message for a while, then goes to the error message
Below is the command and output requested.
ps -ef | grep -i E ‘wayland|xorg’
grep: wayland|xorg: No such file or directory
In case it helps, I also get the following when restarting the nxserver.
sudo /usr/NX/bin/nxserver –restart
NX> 162 Disabled service: nxserver.
NX> 162 Disabled service: nxnode.
NX> 162 Disabled service: nxd.
NX> 161 Enabled service: nxserver.
NX> 162 WARNING: Cannot find X servers running on this machine.
NX> 162 WARNING: A new virtual display will be created on demand.
NX> 161 Enabled service: nxd.
There should be “ps -ef | grep -i –E ‘wayland|xorg‘“.
From yours information’s, I’m expecting problem is that physical session is running on wayland.
According to this https://www.nomachine.com/fr/FR10N03221 you should disable wayland, restart whole system and try again.After disabling Wayland and rebooting, I get the connection and get to the login screen on the remote computer. When I try to log in, the screen starts flickering for a bit, then the connection drops and I get the following.
The connection with the server was lost.
Error is 5: Input/output error.
When you login to system, which desktop environment is set? (settings icon is right next to password field)
There should be option gnome-xorg, which must be used. Do you have access to that machine? Can you login there (with option gnome-xorg) and then try connect with NoMachine?
Output from command from earlier post will be helpful (situation when user is already logged).Sorry for the delay in my response. After logging in locally and selecting the gnome-xorg option, after logging in with NoMachine I get a message of “No available sessions on this server”.
Output of “ps -ef | grep -i E ‘wayland|xorg”
grep: ‘wayland: No such file or directory
bash: xorg’: command not found…
“grep: ‘wayland: No such file or directory
bash: xorg’: command not found…”
it is wrong because command is wrong,
“ps -ef | grep -i E ‘wayland|xorg” you miss dash before “E” . should be “ps -ef | grep -i –E ‘wayland|xorg‘“.Maybe use:
“ps -ef | grep -i -e wayland -e xorg”
or
“ps -ef | grep X”Check also maybe do you have any errors in ~/.xsession-errors or /var/log/Xorg.*.log?
Sorry about that. Here is the output of ‘ps -ef | grep -i -e wayland -e xorg’

When viewing ‘~/.xsession-errors’ I get the message below.

For the ‘/var/log/Xorg.*.log’ I have 4 different ones, is there a specific on I should look at
/var/log/Xorg.0.log /var/log/Xorg.1.log /var/log/Xorg.2.log /var/log/Xorg.9.log
Thank you.

Look at newest one.
Please check also file /usr/NX/var/log/nxerror.log for errors related with WMRunning, because process list looks ok.
In looking at the Xorg logs, the newest one I have is from Oct 5. I ran the command below and got the results listed to look for issues.
cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep -E ‘(EE)|(WW)’
(WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.

[ 193.244] (WW) Warning, couldn’t open module fbdev
[ 193.244] (EE) Failed to load module “fbdev” (module does not exist, 0)
[ 193.245] (WW) Warning, couldn’t open module vesa

The nxerror log is very long, so I took what looks like the last 2 entries from it.

Thank you.
I don’t see nothing wrong in that part of nxerror.log.
I will need logs (with debug) and another output of:ps awwxo uid,ppid,pid,sid,etime,comm,args
Please enable debug, restart nxserver (sudo /usr/NX/bin/nxserver –restart) and send server side logs to forum[at]nomachine[dot]com. Instructions about debug and collecting logs you can find there: https://www.nomachine.com/DT07M00098.
I will get the logs collected and sent. Here is the output of ‘ps awwxo uid,ppid,pid,sid,etime,comm,args’
