When installed with the "java server" USE flags to allow TightVNC to accept java connections over a web browser, starting "vncserver :1" will call on the invalid path for the "-httpd" switch of Xvnc. It calls /usr/local/vnc/classes, which is invalid because the path does not exist. This causes attempts to connect to the web server to respond with "File Not Found" on the client web browser. This is corrected when I manually run this command: "vncserver :1 -httpd /usr/share/tightvnc/classes/" which then points the Xvnc process to the correct location of the Java class files. This problem is caused by the default path that Xvnc is looking for the class files in not existing, which is corrected when I specify the actual location where they were installed to during the emerge. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install net-misc/tightvnc-1.2.9_r3 with "java server" USE flags 2. Start a VNC session via tightvnc using any available display ( such as :1) using the following command syntax: "vncserver :1" 3. Attempt to connect to the Java-http viewer page on port 5800+{DISPLAY_NUMBER} eg: http://vnc_server:5801 **NOTE: steps after this are to correct the problem, but the "Actual Results" below are as shown after only going through step 3** **These steps will correct the problem, but only when the -httpd path is manually given - shouldn't this be the default?** 4. Kill the VNC server that does not provide proper Java support by "vncserver -kill :1" 5. Launch a new VNC session with the correct path, eg: "vncserver :1 -httpd /usr/share/tightvnc/classes/" 6. Connect to the VNC server now that it feeds the correct Java files using the same address as in step 3. Actual Results: After steps 1-3, a web page is presented that reads, in whole: <HEAD><TITLE>File Not Found</TITLE></HEAD> <BODY><H1>File Not Found</H1></BODY> Expected Results: The VNC Java page should be presented as is illustrated by steps 4-6 above emerge --info Portage 2.1.1-r2 (default-linux/x86/2006.1, gcc-4.1.1, glibc-2.4-r4, 2.6.18-gentoo-r4 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.18-gentoo-r4 i686 Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU 2.26GHz Gentoo Base System version 1.12.6 Last Sync: Tue, 16 Jan 2007 00:00:03 +0000 distcc 2.18.3 i686-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [enabled] app-admin/eselect-compiler: [Not Present] dev-java/java-config: 1.3.7, 2.0.30 dev-lang/python: 2.4.3-r4 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r5 dev-util/ccache: [Not Present] dev-util/confcache: [Not Present] sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.17 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.61 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2, 1.10 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1-r3 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.3.14 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.17-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium4 -pipe -fforce-addr" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/gconf /etc/java-config/vms/ /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/terminfo" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium4 -pipe -fforce-addr" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig distcc distlocks metadata-transfer parallel-fetch sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://lug.mtu.edu/gentoo ftp://ftp.ndlug.nd.edu/pub/gentoo/ ftp://mirror.datapipe.net/gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j7" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --delete-after --stats --timeout=180 --exclude='/distfiles' --exclude='/local' --exclude='/packages'" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 alsa_cards_ali5451 alsa_cards_als4000 alsa_cards_atiixp alsa_cards_atiixp-modem alsa_cards_bt87x alsa_cards_ca0106 alsa_cards_cmipci alsa_cards_emu10k1x alsa_cards_ens1370 alsa_cards_ens1371 alsa_cards_es1938 alsa_cards_es1968 alsa_cards_fm801 alsa_cards_hda-intel alsa_cards_intel8x0 alsa_cards_intel8x0m alsa_cards_maestro3 alsa_cards_trident alsa_cards_usb-audio alsa_cards_via82xx alsa_cards_via82xx-modem alsa_cards_ymfpci alsa_pcm_plugins_adpcm alsa_pcm_plugins_alaw alsa_pcm_plugins_asym alsa_pcm_plugins_copy alsa_pcm_plugins_dmix alsa_pcm_plugins_dshare alsa_pcm_plugins_dsnoop alsa_pcm_plugins_empty alsa_pcm_plugins_extplug alsa_pcm_plugins_file alsa_pcm_plugins_hooks alsa_pcm_plugins_iec958 alsa_pcm_plugins_ioplug alsa_pcm_plugins_ladspa alsa_pcm_plugins_lfloat alsa_pcm_plugins_linear alsa_pcm_plugins_meter alsa_pcm_plugins_mulaw alsa_pcm_plugins_multi alsa_pcm_plugins_null alsa_pcm_plugins_plug alsa_pcm_plugins_rate alsa_pcm_plugins_route alsa_pcm_plugins_share alsa_pcm_plugins_shm alsa_pcm_plugins_softvol berkdb bitmap-fonts cli cracklib crypt cups dlloader dri elibc_glibc fortran gdbm gpm iconv input_devices_evdev input_devices_keyboard input_devices_mouse isdnlog kernel_linux libg++ ncurses nls nptl nptlonly offensive pam pcre perl ppds pppd python readline reflection session spl ssl tcpd truetype-fonts type1-fonts udev unicode userland_GNU video_cards_apm video_cards_ark video_cards_ati video_cards_chips video_cards_cirrus video_cards_cyrix video_cards_dummy video_cards_fbdev video_cards_glint video_cards_i128 video_cards_i740 video_cards_i810 video_cards_imstt video_cards_mga video_cards_neomagic video_cards_nsc video_cards_nv video_cards_rendition video_cards_s3 video_cards_s3virge video_cards_savage video_cards_siliconmotion video_cards_sis video_cards_sisusb video_cards_tdfx video_cards_tga video_cards_trident video_cards_tseng video_cards_v4l video_cards_vesa video_cards_vga video_cards_via video_cards_vmware video_cards_voodoo xorg zlib" Unset: CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LANG, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, LINGUAS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS
Yes, i probably forgot the vncClasses in 1.2.9. Fixed, thanks.
