Connected Tutorial(This question is a follow-up to this tutorial):
How To Set Up a Remote Desktop with X2Go on Ubuntu 20.04I followed the setup guide to the letter, and after installing the X2Go client on my Windows 10 machine, I tried connecting the session the guide helped me create. The X2Go UI said, “connecting”, and then asked if I wanted to trust the key of the server, I said yes, and waited a short while.
Then an Error dialogue appeared that said “bash: line 1: x2golistsessions: command not found”. Then I clicked OK and got shown a password login dialogue on the X2Go client. I tried that with the same resulting error. How can I go about troubleshooting this error? I am running Ubuntu 20.10 on my droplet.

Hello,
Have you tried restarting your Windows PC after you installed the client?
Also what I could suggest is checking your X2Go logs for some more information on what could be going wrong.
Feel free to share the output of the logs here.
Best,
Bobby
Heya,
I just wanted to update this question since I’ve been in a similar situation, It’s possible that the x2golistsessions command is not in your PATH environment variable. You can check if it’s installed and its location by running:
sudo updatedb locate x2golistsessions
If the command is found, make sure its location is in your PATH. You can add it to your PATH by modifying your ~/.bashrc file and adding the following line:
export PATH=$PATH:/path/to/x2golistsessions
Replace “/path/to/x2golistsessions” with the actual path where x2golistsessions is located.
Hope that this helps!
