Hello everyone, I am setting up an interactive desktop and I am using Open OnDemand version 4.0.6. I did not configure it successfully according to the official manual. Preparing to configure xfce as an interactive desktop environment, what software packages do I need to install and what files do I need to set up? Do you have detailed steps? thank

Hi and welcome!

So you need the underlying packages for xfce installed. For example you can dnf groupinstall "Xfce" to get all the packages for it.

Beyond that, you need turboVNC and websockify. You may need to set the WEBSOCKIFY_CMD either through an environment variable or through the cluster.d configuration. I’ve given links for both below.

Many sites install these two through modules, though you may be able to install them through apt or dnf.
