vnc server dying with rdr::EndOfStream

[itias]

I'm having trouble with running vnc server on TC.
I'm using x0vncserver-4.1.1.tczl package and launching the server by

Code: [Select]

x0vncserver -PasswordFile=/home/tc/.vnc/passwd &
as per the info file. I can connect to the TC box with no issues however on closing the connection I'm getting the following message terminate called after throwing an instance of rdr::EndofStream on TC machine and cannot connect to it anymore.
I haven't found anything similar on the forum so I would appreciate some help understanding what's wrong.

Actually this is the same problem as here: http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php?topic=2360

Basically x0vncserver is throwing an exception and the current glibc/gcc used in TC is not handling exceptions.

Thanks, robc.
So let me rephrase my question: does that mean that I need to start vnc server over after disconnecting if I want to open a new session? Or is there a way to gracefully end the session in order not to throw the exception? Thanks

I am seeing the same behavior with x0vncserver, and the only workaround Ive found is to ssh in and restart the vnc server before every reconnect.  I hope the next major version of TC will be built to handle exceptions, because this is not the only problem Ive run across due to lack of exception handling.

I use the following bash script:

---------------------------
#myvnc
while true
do
    x0vncserver -AlwaysShared=1 -PasswordFile=/home/tc/.vnc/passwd
done 2>/dev/null
---------------------------

Then I add after the waitfor X line:
---------------------------
./myvnc &
---------------------------

Simple workaround, very nice.  Just FYI, I have switched to x11vnc.tcz which has worked well for me with the -forever switch.
