On a fresh install I can't access the VNC viewer - it doesn't seem to throw any errors, but it hangs on
"Status: Performing standard VNC authentication".

That said, I'm going through a firewall, but I can telnet into port 5900 (but not 5901). I also have HTTPS and SSH access.

On 5900 I see RFB 003.889

Here's what I see in the syslog.
Jun 11 09:23:32 proxmox pvedaemon[3605]: starting vnc proxy UPID:3605-137955:1244726612:vncproxy:0:101:root:5900:tYSeeAdH07f1BR0/WvmVFyrFYXo
Jun 11 09:23:32 proxmox pvedaemon[3605]: CMD: /bin/nc -l -p 5900 -w 30 -c /usr/sbin/qm vncproxy 101 tYSeeAdH07f1BR0/WvmVFyrFYXo 2>/dev/null
Jun 11 09:24:02 proxmox pvedaemon[3605]: VM 101 vnc proxy failed - 256

I'd appreciate any assistance.

Thanks,

I created a new VM, and it seems to work now.

I removed and then recreated the same VM VMID, and it still fails.

Odd problem.

Anyways, that was my fix.

I got the same problem, after a month...but I charged it the opposite way....I mean through the mains, when it was there for 4 hrs and still not going to get turned on I tried the usb cable, PC found there is nokia on USB, but PC Suite found nothing this time. Display dead. Going to ask for replacement.
