VNC Centos 8
VNC Centos 8
I am trying to install VNC on Cent OS 8 with xfce but having issues with the installation
I used the below command to install XfCE
"dnf groupinstall Xfce -y"
For VNC I used the below command
"sudo dnf install tigervnc-server tigervnc-server-module -y"
but I get this error (added image in attachment)
Not sure what I am doing wrong here

Re: VNC Centos 8
Regarding group Xfce, are you sure it's supported by RHEL?
Regarding 'tigervnc-server-module', I don't know what that is?
Tigervnc should be in 'appstream'
It requires
which is in 'baseos'
but your terminal is showing an old version of gnutls that is marked as el7_6, as opposed to el8
Regarding 'tigervnc-server-module', I don't know what that is?
Tigervnc should be in 'appstream'
Code: Select all
tigervnc.x86_64 1.11.0-9.el8 appstream
Code: Select all
libgnutls.so.30()(64bit)
Code: Select all
gnutls.x86_64 3.6.16-4.el8 baseos
Re: VNC Centos 8
Is this system the result of an "upgrade" from CentOS 7?
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

Re: VNC Centos 8
This is a fresh install of Cent OS 8. Not sure what was done wrong here.
Re: VNC Centos 8
Your first post shows it attempting to pull in a bunch of packages with .el7 in their names and those are NOT for CentOS 8. You need to track down how your system is configured to attempt to use repos designed for CentOS 7 and remove them. Also check what is already installed - e.g rpm -qa | grep el7 should show nothing on CentOS 8.

Re: VNC Centos 8
None of those should be on a CentOS 8 system. Since it's was trying to pull in more as a result of your install, that means you still have whatever repo it was available. It needs to be removed. Check all the files in /etc/yum.repos.d/*.repo and see if any of them have a hard coded version number or path in baseurl= or mirrorlist= lines. Once you've tracked down the problem repo and corrected it, you should probably run yum distro-sync so that all of those packages get replaced by el8 versions.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

Re: VNC Centos 8
Did you set up the necessary vnc credentials file etc?
