Only runs interactively??? What to do?

[JimBoG]

I installed the VNC server over RDP on 2003 R2, but it will not run when the user is logged out. I have it installed as a service.

Plesae upgrade to 1082.

There was a special fix in it to work with XP engine OS's ( like 2003)

I upgraded as well as reinstalled 1082 and am still having the same issue. Basically, it will only connect as long as I am logged into RDP. Does VNC need to be installed interactively?

I had stopped using VNC a while ago due to this same issue and had tried doing the install locally instead of via RDP, but remember that I had this same issue.

Just for clarification, what I meant by "Having the same issue" was that eventhough I installed VNC interactively I was unable to use it if logged out.

did you reboot server ?

[JimBoG]

Reboot fixed the issue in my test env. However, I did get the following msg.

ERROR: Driver cannot be installed via RDP

I didn't get that in production, but think it should work fine now.

Thanks for your help!

I am having the same issue again. After reinstalling, it works until someone logs in.

That is, it works until someone RDPs into the server, then it stops working until the server is rebooted.
