Tightvnc startup script not loading fonts - permission denied

[master-richie]

am currently using the following script (usr/local/etc/rc.d/vncserver.sh) I found somewhere on the web and modified (reduction) but still can't get vncserver to load on boot. it looks like it would work but it kicks out errors loading the default fonts - the fonts folders exist.

I applied chmod 755 to vncserver.sh and set vnc_enable="YES" in rc.conf

#!/bin/sh
#
# This script starts vncserver
#

. /etc/rc.subr

name="vnc"

vncserver_display=":1"
vncserver_options="-geometry 800x600 -compatiblekbd -fp '/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/'"

rcvar=`set_rcvar`
start_cmd="${name}_start"
stop_cmd=":"

load_rc_config $name
eval "${rcvar}=\${${rcvar}:-'NO'}"
vnc_msg=${vnc_msg:-"Starting vncserver..."}

vnc_start()
{
echo "$vnc_msg"
PATH=/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/local/bin:$PATH
su [my user name in wheel group] -c "/usr/X11R6/bin/vncserver ${vncserver_display} ${vncserver_options}\
"
}

run_rc_command "$1"

have tried googling the error, changing single quotes to double quotes in my options string and manually typing the options on my su line - no luck.

am reaching out again for help .. once I can get vncserver loading during boot, I can install the server and will have all the time in the world to figure out the rest for myself. thanks in advance, ~Rich

someone had mentioned that if the fonts are out of date, it will give you that same message.

I did a "make deinstall" & "make reinstall" in the xorg-fonts/xxx folders to update the fonts packages and still the same problem.

Other forums people have surmised a bug in the tightvnc port - any ideas? ~Rich

SOLVED!!! didn't have sudo installed. doh!

installed sudo, then made sure my window manager was called in the /home/~/.vnc/xstartup file and I was rockin and rollin!

good luck to everyone else trying this ... ~Rich
