Re: [Xen-users] Vnc unable to open Display on xen CentOS

[Tapas Mishra <tapas@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Finally its working I have been able to transfer display over ssh Fajar thanks for all the time you spent 
the problem was on Ubuntu machine as root DISPLAY variable is not set 
then in xstartup file for vnc user exec gnome-session has to be mentioned which I forgot 
I did  yum groupinstall "X Window System" "GNOME Desktop Environment"
as it was not present on the remote Xen machine
ubuntu does not allow root to use GUI so I was not able to do it again and again DISPLAY was not set in this case for root 
but for user it works fine 
there were a lot of errors like this one 

when vnc session crashed
