Description saravana.kumaran_a 2020-06-20 09:27:31 UTC

SUMMARY
I have connect cloud server through vncviewer, when i have copy the contents present in windows and try to paste in vncviewer, it is not working, actually it happens only for specific servers and for other server it is working fine. note: when copying from vncserver to outside it is working and copying within terminal console also working, not sure which thing blocking me to paste contents in vncviewer.

for terminal editor in cloud server, i am using konsole, i am not sure whether this issue happen because of konsole, because for other server when i connect using realvnc, there copy and paste working there terminal editor is different.

check whether copy from windows and paste in realvnc, konsole preventing this.

Hi,
      Actually issue is with vnc-server, that only block copy and paste option from windows to vnc-server, konsole terminal were working fine.

how i have found the issue:
initially when any user account created to particular server(linux pc), xstartup file present in ~/.vnc path will have one default command 
that kill this kind copy and paste options from outside to vnc-server. I have removed that command now it is working properly.


problem not with konsole you can reject this ticket.

Hi, 
     I am seeing this copy and paste problem again,
when I have created new vncserver session that time copy from windows and paste in vnc viewer konsole terminal working. But when i have copy within konsole terminals, that time onwards, paste from windows to konsole not accept.
look strange. I have seen this issue now only. will update if i can able to solve this issue.

Hi,
     issue solved.
solution:
Klipper application was running on my vncserver. 
i.e there will be scissor symbol in the down-right corner..
need to quit that application.

after this, issue get solved, you can resolved this ticket there will not be any more issue for copy and paste in konsole hereafter by me.

Regards,
Saravana
