Suresh,

When I was at APS yesterday Qingteng showed me the .cache issue that Brian found.
I created a script to work around the issue based on what Brian found.
It is the 8idiuser home directory.

./fixcache.sh will move the wacked out directory out of the way. Then nomachine will work and not exit with a blank screen.

Also, qingteng was trying to run “sudo systemctl restart nxserver”, which won’t work for users 8ide, 8idg and 8ide.
But, “sudo /usr/NX/bin/nxserver --restart” will work for them.

Cheers,

Jeff
