[winswitch] xpra 3.0.5:

[wuebbel at gmail.com]

Dear list,

 

connecting through the HTML client in 3.0.5 is not working for me.
Downgrading to 3.0.4, everything is fine. Details:

 

- Ubuntu 18.04.3

- Installed xpra through the winswitch-repositories as proposed in the
install section on xpra.org

 

After installing via

 

apt-get install xpra=3.0.4-r24778-1 xpra-html5=3.0.4-r24778-1

 

and connecting to Port 14500 via web browser, xpra fails at first (socket
closed), due to

 

Jan 10 14:41:54 RADON xpra[30678]: Error: failed to setup control socket
'/run/xpra/RADON-proxy-31065':

 

Changing the permissions on /run/xpra (or adding the user to the xpra group)
fixes this, and everything is fine, I have been running this configuration
for a couple of days.

 

 

However: After doing

 

apt-get upgrade

 

(or purging and installing 3.0.5 for both xpra and xpra.html-5), and again
connecting via the webbrowser to port 14500, it fails and shows:

 

Did not receive hello before timeout reached, not an Xpra server?

 

Syslog shows no errors. Input is exactly the same as in the working version.

 

Starting the server manually via xpra start and then doing xpra attach or
xpra launcher works, but still, html5 fails.

 

Any ideas? I tried to use debug, but was unsure where to locate this
problem.
