Once you have added the vncserver, you need to run after reboot if the service don't starts after boot
srijan, thanks for your quick answer. but I don't understand you clearly, the point is to start vnc automaticaly on each box boot, before login, or i missed something? And when i creating /etc/init.d/vncserver script like this it means that i create a new service and can access it through service command - is it right? So i tried to start it manually to understand what is wrong and got errors. Ofc for example i can start it like this each time i boot and login in my box: Code: vncserver -geometry 1600x1200 -depth 24
VNC server will only start if you are logged in, otherwise it will not start. I mean to say you need to fisrt login at ubuntu server configured with vncserver. Yes you can access it only after one reboot. If you will add the service in update.rc then it will start automatically by using It s not needed as if you added the file /etc/vncserver/vncservers.conf with the entries as . It is defined in the guide as well.
Yes i added it in update.rc and after restart it didn't start i made everething like in the topic I'am interesting in these errors that i got
It means that your hardware is not supporting the resolution 1024x768, to overcome this change the file /etc/vncserver/vncservers.conf with some other resolution like 800x600
