Guacamole debugging - raise loglevel

Apps & App Center
#1

Hello community,

I have installed the guacamole-app and managed to get some ssh-connections configured.
But unfortunetly I don’t get neither vnc nor rdp connections to work.

The information about these connections I found in the system logs are very limited. While I find some entries for vnc in /var/log/messages I can’t find anything related to rdp.

So my question is on how to raise the loglevel in these docker containers?
(I found something related in chapter 5 of the guacamole docs. But how is that to be implemented in the docker so that it would survive a restart? docker cp ... isn’t. And by the way is that really the way to go???)

Ah, another one: someone getting access to a windows 10 (1809) desktop joined to the domain through guacamole?

Help appreciated,
Bernd

Hi bernd,
got the same problem that no rdp connection to a windows 10 or server2016 is possible. I played around with the variables und tried different settings, but without success.

Hi @hpz,

well trouble shared is a trouble halved :+1:…
At least I found some useful commands to look into the two running containers: docker logs -ft --details container_id.

On the guacd-side I get an error: ERROR: User is not responding.
And on the guacamole-side I get:

So - problems in the tunnels? :metro:

As the weekend goes by…

I’m still interested in a command to raise the debug-level on these containers. Or is there even a general one somebody knows of?

On the other hand - with just the two or three klicks - I installed the app on my ucs member-server and - voilà - it just works…
The errors above are from a slave-server with samba4.

So actually, yes: I do have working connections to windows10 through rpc (nla) and to tightvnc on debian through vnc and there are scenarios where this guacamole isn’t just healthy food :avocado:

Best,
Bernd

Well this did work just some hours I think. Since that I get the following message:

root@ucs-member:~# docker logs -ft --details container_id_guacamole

I checked the password files, they seem to be ok. What else to check?
Thanks,
