How to install HandBrake GUI on TrueNAS 12.0?

[Palle34]

I followed this instructions but i get an error:

Code:

Unable to init server: Could not connect to 127.0.0.1: Connection refused

(HandBrake:3384) - Gtk-WARNING **: 11:13:10.993: cannot open display:

Does anyone have an idea how to fix that?

Regards

Hi,
I've you solved the problem ?

 

[sretalla]

I note that I wasn't able to get it to work either using ssh -X ... but rather it works with ssh -Y ...

 

[toto6581]

From putty ???

 

[sretalla]

I am using Xquartz on Mac, so can't confirm it works in putty, but others seem to have been using that as the client, so I guess so.

 

[sretalla]

For Putty, you need to go in the connection settings under SSH | X11 and allow X11 forwarding. Set the Display location to :0 and it should work.

Thanks for your answer, i tried it but doesn't working. With MobaXterm, on the top i can reasd X11-forwarding disabled or not supported. I think problem is in sshd_config. I delete "#" on AllowAgentForwarding yes, X11Forwarding yes, X11DisplayOffset 10, X11UseLocalhost yes. I forget something ?

I hope you understand my English pietre level

 

[sretalla]

In the jail where it works for me, all those are commented out in sshd_config:

Code:

#AllowAgentForwarding yes
#AllowTcpForwarding yes
#GatewayPorts no
#X11Forwarding yes
#X11DisplayOffset 10
#X11UseLocalhost yes

I guess it's showing the default values there in any case, so nothing needs to be done for it to work.

 

[sretalla]

Not sure what else you're doing or not doing, but it works for me with both Putty and Xquartz.

If you want to share your putty config screen or show pkg info output from the jail, maybe I can see what's missing.

Thanks, if you can compare our sshd_config

In Putty, you need to set the X display location to :0

 

[toto6581]

I make a fresh install and still the same

 

[sretalla]

Did you set the X display location to :0

Which pkgs did you install?

 

[sretalla]

On host:
iocage create -n "x11" -r 13.0-RELEASE vnet="on" dhcp="on" bpf="yes"

iocage start x11

iocage console x11

Now in the jail console:

passwd (to set a password for root)

ee /etc/ssh/sshd_config

Change:
PermitRootLogin yes

Save and exit the file

pkg upgrade (then Y)
pkg install xorg (then Y)

... installs 183 pkgs, takes a few minutes.

pkg install firefox-esr (then Y)

... installs 71 more pkgs

sysrc sshd_enable=YES

service sshd start

From Putty: (EDIT: turns out I was already also running Xming, which is a prerequisite to this working)

Set a connection to your jail's IP

Set on the X11 tab Enable X11 forwarding

Set on the X11 tab the X display location to :0

Save that connection and login as root with the password you set above.

Then in that terminal:
firefox

A firefox window should appear in your Windows session (but is actually running in the jail)...


Let me know which step doesn't work if any. (I have just performed each of these steps on a TrueNAS 13 BETA server as I was typing them, so I confirm it works for me in both Putty and XQuartz.

Lot of Thanks for your help.
It works for firefox and Handbrake. But last info, i've a intel CPU, you know how to activate qsv ?
Thanks again
