guacamole vnc viewer - how to ?

Question

hello, i have my tomcat server running, i downloaded the guacamole vnc viewer, and i followed the instructions on : http://guacamole.sourceforge.net/

however when i type :http://localhost:8080/guacamole/ i get error message : http status 404 The requested resource () is not available.

anyone using guacamole, plz can you explain the steps to follow? i moved the xml files and the war file as instructed, but there is this folder: "guacamole-src.tar" where do i unzip it to? what are the steps to follow to make it work?

thx a lot:)

Answer 1

ThinVNC is another pure web alternative that uses HTML5 to replace the old VNC.

Here you have a link to the product page. There's a exe setup ready to be used, and free for non commercial use:

Once you've copied guacamole.war, start the server and check if a folder /guacamole is created at the same place (that means the server has found your web application and is trying to deploy it).

Also, please check your Tomcat logs.

You don't need to use guacamole-src.tar, that file only contains the project sources, but it is not needed.
