Hi,

im currently trying to figure out the x2gohtmlclient. I have a server with x2go installed and want to run the webserver on a different machine. From my understanding, the x2gohtmlclient-Host contacts the x2go server using ssh.

I did the following:

On x2go Server:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:x2go/nightly
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:x2go/ppa
sudo apt update
sudo apt install x2goserver x2goserver-xsession x2goserver-x2gokdrive

SSH is on #mysshport.

On x2gohtmlclient Server:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:x2go/nightly
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:x2go/ppa
sudo apt update
sudo apt install nginx fcgiwrap x2gohtmlclient
sudo rm /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default
sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/x2gohtmlclient-demo.conf /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/x2gohtmlclient-demo.conf

edit /usr/share/x2gohtmlclient/demo/index.html:

sshproxyport=22\n\ to sshproxyport=#mysshport\n\

finally:

sudo service restart nginx

I can access the Webinterface on localhost, but when I try to connect I only get "failed to connect to server, please check your login data". Connection via SSH works. x2go also server works.

/var/log/nginx/x2gohtmlclient_error.log shows 

[error] 16702#16702: *1 FastCGI sent in stderr: "cgi-bin/x2gorpc.cgi line 259" while reading response header from upstream, client: 127.0.0.1, server: , request: "POST /assets/rpc/x2gorpc.cgi HTTP/1.1", upstream: "fastcgi://unix:/var/run/fcgiwrap.socket:", host: "localhost", referrer: "https://localhost/"

I would have expected that the empty "server: " would show my x2go server as entered in the webinterface. Did I miss something?

Best,
