Unable to start vncserver
Hi,

While trying to connect vncserver, i am gettting below errors:
Code:
sh: /home/$USER/.vnc/$HOSTNAME:2.log: Permission denied
sh: /home/$USER/.vnc/$HOSTNAME:2.pid: Permission denied

New '$HOSTNAME:2 ($USER)' desktop is $HOSTNAME:2

Starting applications specified in /home/$USER/.vnc/xstartup
Log file is /home/$USER/.vnc/$HOSTNAME:2.log

looks like a permission issue, i don;t have any clue about where to fix.
i am starting vncserver via
Code:
 sudo /etc/init.d vncserver start

.

Please let me know, if you need any other information.

Thanks
