version 1.4.13 not able to use RDP plugin #47

Open sgivan opened 3 years ago

sgivan commented 3 years ago

Hi,

I can't seem to use the RDP plugin. I see that this has been a recurring problem. For me, this is occurring when I install Remmina with either Fedora dnf or flatpak.

$ flatpak info org.remmina.Remmina

I don't get an error associated with the RDP plugin upon startup:

$ flatpak run org.remmina.Remmina
Load modules from /app/lib/remmina/plugins
Remmina plugin glibsecret (type=Secret) has been registered, but is not yet initialized/activated. The initialization order is 2000.
The glibsecret secret plugin  has been initialized and it will be your default secret plugin

However, when I try to open an RDP connection, a window pops up saying that I need to install the RDP plugin first. And the RDP plugin is not listed when I open the Plugins menu.

It looks like the plugin is installed:

$ locate remmina-plugin-rdp.so

Just tested, and it works for me, try to remove it completely and reinstall

sgivan commented 3 years ago

Thanks for testing this. Yes, I've removed and reinstalled Remmina multiple times using both dnf and flatpak. I'm on Fedora 33. I've been using Remmina for years. It stopped working two days ago on my system after dnf updated to 1.4.13, which was part of a larger system update.

I just used dnf to rollback to Remmina 1.4.8 and it doesn't work now, whereas it worked before the system update. So, the problem I'm seeing must be due to a different package that updated.

Some stuff to check

rpm -qa | grep remmina

Be sure there's only one version installed and that you have the needed plugins:

remmina.x86_64 : Remote Desktop Client
remmina-plugins-exec.x86_64 : External execution plugin for Remmina Remote Desktop Client
remmina-plugins-kwallet.x86_64 : KDE Wallet plugin for Remmina Remote Desktop Client
remmina-plugins-nx.x86_64 : NX plugin for Remmina Remote Desktop Client
remmina-plugins-rdp.x86_64 : RDP plugin for Remmina Remote Desktop Client
remmina-plugins-secret.x86_64 : Keyring integration for Remmina Remote Desktop Client
remmina-plugins-spice.x86_64 : SPICE plugin for Remmina Remote Desktop Client
remmina-plugins-st.x86_64 : Simple Terminal plugin for Remmina Remote Desktop Client
remmina-plugins-vnc.x86_64 : VNC plugin for Remmina Remote Desktop Client
remmina-plugins-www.x86_64 : WWW plugin for Remmina Remote Desktop Client
remmina-plugins-xdmcp.x86_64 : XDMCP plugin for Remmina Remote Desktop Client

The flatpak should work out of the box except if you have a running remmina session, so in that case:

ps -ef | grep remmina
# If there's a running remmina that you were not expecting, kill it
pkill remmina

Hope it helps
