[X2Go-User] x2gobroker on wheezy

Tue Oct 8 11:10:47 CEST 2013

Hi Mike,

I am getting closer to a working setup :) Adding the parameters, of 
course, helped. The Wiki doesn't tell about these so I am going to add 
that later on. About the parameters though:

http://***.***.***.***/x2gobroker/plain/inifile?user=mathias&password=**********

=> Access granted.

http://***.***.***.***/x2gobroker/plain/inifile?user=mathias&password=**********&task=listsessions

=> 500: Internal Server Errror

x2goclient --broker-url=http://***.***.***.***/x2gobroker/plain/inifile

Shows me a login screen but then says login failed with the same error 
messages on the server as above.

About the nightly builds: I need to get this working quickly. Once that 
is done I will play with the nightly.

cheers
Mathias
