Hello, I have been trying to figure this out for a while now. Every time I start a session from my client (arch) to my server (arch xfce), the session seems to start fine, but terminates instantly. The client reads:
Info: Proxy running in server mode with pid '11128'. Session: Starting session at 'Sun May 16 15:24:13 2021'. Info: Using errors file '/home/matteo/.x2go/S-matteo-50-1621203851_stDstartxfce4_dp24/sessions'. Info: Using stats file '/home/matteo/.x2go/S-50/stats'. Loop: WARNING!

And the error files in the S-matteo-50-[...] directory are sessions, options and a spool dir. Sessions only says what versions were found.
On the server side in the C-matte-50 directory session.log gives the rather uninteresting errors:
Error: keyboard file not created: Is a directory Error: Aborting session with 'Could not open default font 'fixed''.
before terminating. The system log itself /var/log/user.log does not report any errors, but only terminates the session. The clients file reports only:
error opening security policy file /usr/local/lib/nx/X11/xserver/SecurityPolicy
At this point I have exhausted my resources. I have tried the client from a different OS and the result is the same. From what I understand the fixed font error is most likely a red herring, but I have installed xorg-fonts-misc for what it's worth, with no difference. Lastly I should mention that the server runs xfce4 fine on the machine itself (using dbus-launch also makes no difference).
I would really appreciate any help.

not a problem.

Also not a problem, rather a bug in x2go that has always been there. $SOMEONE should fix it..
Error: keyboard file not created: Is a directory
this is intended behaviour.
Error: Aborting session with 'Could not open default font 'fixed''.
This is the cause of your trouble.
error opening security policy file /usr/local/lib/nx/X11/xserver/SecurityPolicy
This is also uncritical but should happen.
Both previous messages indicate that something is not correct in the way NX was built on your system.

It is not a red herring. This code clearly shuts down nxagent when the font is missing. Need to find out why that is because on my system I do not have the fixed font installed but it works.
Please try the following: Connect with ssh -X to the server and run "/bin/nxagent :5 -ac" . Can you start it that way?

Thank you Uli, On the client side I get the securitypolicy error followed by: nxagentGetRemoteXkbExtension: WARNING! Faulted to query XKB extension. Unable to query XKEYBOARD extension. Error: Aborting session with 'Could not open default font 'fixed''. On the server side, if I try to run the same command it opens a window which remains black until I close it. Not sure what is the intended behavior.
I should also mention that the client on Linux uses a custom keyboard layout, not present on the server, but even after loading more standard ones, or disabling keyboard configuration, there is no difference. I appreciate your help!

Ok, so the reason for the failure is the client side. Btw: Why don't you have a xkeyboard extension loaded on the client?
Have you tried installing the font package you mentioned before on the client?

It was as stupid as installing it on the client side. Thank you so much. Might be useful to make the package a dependence, unless the error is weirdly just mine.
For the extension, I believe it should be loaded, but I might have messed it up when creating that custom kb layout.
Thank you again, Matteo
