×This seems to be a common problem with Ubuntu 14.04 and gnome.
The following tutorial solved the issue for me: Ubuntu VNC Grey Screen
under your user name / .vnc/xstartup.
In my case is :
/root/.vnc
In my case, all of my storage are full. Deleting files to have vacant space plus restarting the service fixed it.
Open xstartup file.
$ nano ~/.vnc/xstartup
Add the following line.
!/bin/sh
def
export XKLXMODMAPDISABLE=1
unset SESSIONMANAGER
unset DBUSSESSIONBUSADDRESS
gnome-panel &
gnome-settings-daemon &
metacity &
nautilus &
gnome-terminal &
Save and close it. After that install GNOM
$ apt-get install ubuntu-gnome-desktop -y
Once finished, restart the droplet.
Now, it should work. I had the same issue and solved now.
Works !!!

Just one error in the lines: not !/bin/sh but # !/bin/sh
