upgrade to Fedora 33 breaks X2Go again, no free display number available, cannot start new session

How does one start X2Go Windows with debug enabled? I only found for Mac you can add the --debug flag.
My colleague also had this error:

-> as you can see x2gofreeport does not seem to report the port as free. You can try this manually:
/usr/lib/x2go/x2gogetfreeport $(hostname) "$(which ss)" display 50
If that will output a free port x2go should generally work. If not, you still have something running and blocking these ports. You can check with lsof -i :6050 and you will see who is blocking the first checked port.
You can also run the x2gogefreeport with bash -x: bash -x /usr/lib/x2go/x2gogetfreeport $(hostname) "$(which ss)" display 50
and see what going on.
Hope that helps,
Uli

Let me to https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/467507/x2go-unable-to-find-free-dis... so I ran x2godbadmin --createdb

-> as you can see x2gofreeport does not seem to report the port as free. You can try this manually:
/usr/lib/x2go/x2gogetfreeport $(hostname) "$(which ss)" display 50
If that will output a free port x2go should generally work. If not, you still have something running and blocking these ports. You can check with lsof -i :6050 and you will see who is blocking the first checked port.
You can also run the x2gogefreeport with bash -x: bash -x /usr/lib/x2go/x2gogetfreeport $(hostname) "$(which ss)" display 50
and see what going on.
Hope that helps,
Uli

How does one start X2Go Windows with debug enabled? I only found for Mac
you can add the --debug flag.

Just to follow up, after uninstalling, rebooting, then reinstalling, X2Go worked. So you are correct that a port must be in use, but not sure why the lsof command did not return any results.
Some process(es) must lock on to these ports after an upgrade. Not sure if a simple nice-ing, i.e., increasing the priority of the process would help?
Hope it helps anyone who might stumble on to this thread.

-> as you can see x2gofreeport does not seem to report the port as free. You can try this manually:
/usr/lib/x2go/x2gogetfreeport $(hostname) "$(which ss)" display 50
If that will output a free port x2go should generally work. If not, you still have something running and blocking these ports. You can check with lsof -i :6050 and you will see who is blocking the first checked port.
You can also run the x2gogefreeport with bash -x: bash -x /usr/lib/x2go/x2gogetfreeport $(hostname) "$(which ss)" display 50
and see what going on.
Hope that helps,
Uli
