I'm trying to connect from my local ubuntu 18.04 with remmina installed to my remote ubuntu 19.04 where I installed the xrdp server.

It is able to perform the login, but as soon as it tries to open the window with the remote desktop, the window suddenly closes.

I can't understand why this is happening since I am not getting any error.

How can I solve it?

  • Ubuntu 19.04 is EOL & thus off-topic. ubuntu-news.org/2020/01/23/… askubuntu.com/help/on-topic Your 19.04 box should be fully-upgraded, then release-upgraded to 19.10 asap.

    Look at the logs with sudo journalctl --since="- 10 minutes" on each system.

  • I solved it, it was just a stupid problem: I cannot login from the local system with the same user account which is already log on the remote system. Feb 8, 2020 at 9:31
  • Instead of creating a profile and connecting in remmina, try connecting from the input box directly (vnc protocol worked for me), first few attempts may fail, but it will connect in few attempts.

  • I took hours another day trying to figure the solution out. This one worked immediately on Xubuntu (Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS) Oct 5, 2023 at 8:01
