OOD Desktops don't work #121

Closed johrstrom closed 2 years ago

johrstrom commented 2 years ago

Desktops don't work because they fall victim to https://github.com/OSC/ood_core/issues/737 which I figure we should just drop-in patch in the image?

@johrstrom Sounds good. Do we need to patch bc_desktop to not use the nohttpd flag? or do we need to patch TurboVNC? It wasn't quite clear on which app needs patching.

I think we can downgrade turbovnc or patch one of our libraries (basically just drop a new file in the container and/or sed -i).

Sounds good. Let's patch one our libraries as there are no arm64 builds for TurboVNC versions 2.2.x so we can't downgrade. They only provide arm64 builds for TurboVNC >3.0. Which files need the sed -i patch?

This is my built from source location. 

[hpcadmin@ondemand ~]$ grep -r httpd /usr/share/gems/gems/ood_core-0.19.0/
/usr/share/gems/gems/ood_core-0.19.0/lib/ood_core/batch_connect/templates/vnc.rb:                VNC_OUT=$(vncserver -log "#{vnc_log}" -rfbauth "#{vnc_passwd}" -nohttpd -noxstartup #{vnc_args} 2>&1)

Here's the location of an RPM install. The versions in the directory path could change. We may end up with OOD 2.0.27 which uses 0.19.0 as above.

[johrstrom ~()]  grep -r httpd /opt/ood/ondemand/root/usr/share/gems/2.7/ondemand/2.0.23/gems/ood_core-0.18.1/
