[FreeNX-kNX] "Session startup failed" - Can't open /usr/NX/var/db/running/sessionId{F019E43062C4A26A74E607B51AF6AE2F}

[Jeffrey Borg]

Hi,

Try running nxserver --cleanup as root


also make sure the directory exists mine looks like this.

ls -l  /usr/NX/var/db/
total 20
drwx------ 2 nx root 4096 2006-04-11 18:08 closed
drwx------ 2 nx root 4096 2006-04-10 13:40 failed
drwx------ 2 nx root 4096 2006-04-11 18:08 running


PS a little tip when selecting the link speed in the nx client just pick 
modem for any slow link.

Jeffrey
