    I contacted support and it was fixed. I've been trying to do this for some time. Thanks.

    Can I find the irazoo bot listed in the Subscriber Section?
    If you can't connect to the internet it's a problem of the provider.
    Yes the bot is listed in the subscriber section.

    This isn't just VNC, VNC is like teamviewer, It only allows you to see what's happening on desktop and doesn't give you any kind of desktop, What you are using is called Ubuntu desktop which I don't recommend because It uses much RAM.
    I suggest using LXDE desktop, Uses 60 MB ram only, I've it running on 128 MB vps like charm (haphost vps[free])
    Thanks for this anyway
    can you share console commands for LXDE, iam using haphost free also

    I tried installing lxde light + only the programs i need, but for some reason when i start my bots it is slow like hell. I open firefox and it takes about 5-10 seconds to load a new site. When i click an item it also takes much more time. When i looked into my ressources with free -m there was much more free ram.

    I reinstalled ubuntu desktop again and it was running smooth again but i had a higher ram usage.

    Any idea?

    Well, In the end, It's a light desktop interface, You can't expect it to work functional as well as Ubuntu Desktop (which is originally made for ubuntu lol)
    I use LXDE desktop to run Hitleap on Ubuntu 14.04 (Could install it for anyone, Just hit me with a PM)

    Here is a simple step by step guide for absolute beginners how to connect to your Ubuntu VPS (the commands on other linux OS are a bit different).
    You can't really make mistakes by using this guide.

    Requirements for your home PC:
    - Tight VNC(DOWNLOAD)
    - PuTTY (DOWNLOAD)


    1. Open a connection from PuTTY

    Type in the IP from your server and the port (default is 22, so if you don't know the port, dont edit it) and click on "open"


    Then you'll see a console window asking you "login as".
    Type in: root and click enter, then type in your password and click enter.

    Note
    When you type there are no characters or *** shown, so you have to take a look at your keyboard to avoid making mistakes. After that your console will look like this:


    You find this easy? Great, because that was the hardest part, after that you will only do copy and paste work!
    Copy / paste in PuTTY is not like on windows "CTRL + C ; CTRL +V".
    If you want to copy something from Windows, just use CTRL + C, but if you want to paste it in the console, just do a right click it gets pasted.

    2. Update and upgrade Ubuntu
    Code:
    apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade -y --force-yes
    Depending on the internet connection of your VPS this will normally take about 10-20 seconds

    3.Install GUI on Ubuntu 14.04 Server
    Code:
    apt-get install xubuntu-desktop xfce4 firefox nano -y --force-yes
    This will take a little bit more time, so just wait until its finished.

    4. Install VNC Server on Ubuntu 14.04
    Code:
    apt-get install vnc4server -y --force-yes
    5. Add a user + password
    Now you'll need to add a user and a password with which you want to login to vnc. In this case it's the user "vncuser"
    Code:
    adduser vncuser
    6. Switch to the created user
    Code:
    su - vncuser
    7. Start VNC server
    This is needed because VNC server needs to create some files first, which we can edit after this step
    Code:
    vncserver
    8. Kill VNC server
    Code:
    vncserver -kill :1
    9. Edit xstartup file
    This will be a little bit more complicated now, but don't worry, it's also very easy if you follow my steps:
    Code:
    nano .vnc/xstartup
    You will see something like this now:


    Now press the DEL key on your keyboard and delete everything!
    When you are done, just copy this code and paste it:

    Code:
    #!/bin/sh
    unset SESSION_MANAGER
    unset DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS
    startxfce4 &
     
    [ -x /etc/vnc/xstartup ] && exec /etc/vnc/xstartup
    [ -r $HOME/.Xresources ] && xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
    xsetroot -solid grey
    vncconfig -iconic &
    Now press CTRL + X to save it.
    Now press Y to confirm it and press enter to finally save the file.

    10. Get root access and edit vncserver file
    Code:
    su -
    Enter your root password now and hit enter.

    Code:
    nano /etc/init.d/vncserver
    This creates a new file. Now paste this code into the file again:

    Code:
    #!/bin/bash
    ### BEGIN INIT INFO
    # Provides:          tightvncserver
    # Required-Start:    $syslog
    # Required-Stop:     $syslog
    # Default-Start:     2 3 4 5
    # Default-Stop:      0 1 6
    # Short-Description: vnc server
    # Description: http://www.namhuy.net
    #
    ### END INIT INFO
     
    unset VNCSERVERARGS
    VNCSERVERS=""
    [ -f /etc/vncserver/vncservers.conf ] && . /etc/vncserver/vncservers.conf
    prog=$"VNC server"
    start() {
    . /lib/lsb/init-functions
    REQ_USER=$2
    echo -n $"Starting $prog: "
    ulimit -S -c 0 >/dev/null 2>&1
    RETVAL=0
    for display in ${VNCSERVERS}
    do
    export USER="${display##*:}"
    if test -z "${REQ_USER}" -o "${REQ_USER}" == ${USER} ; then
    echo -n "${display} "
    unset BASH_ENV ENV
    DISP="${display%%:*}"
    export VNCUSERARGS="${VNCSERVERARGS[${DISP}]}"
    su ${USER} -c "cd ~${USER} && [ -f .vnc/passwd ] && vncserver :${DISP} ${VNCUSERARGS}"
    fi
    done
    }
    stop() {
    . /lib/lsb/init-functions
    REQ_USER=$2
    echo -n $"Shutting down VNCServer: "
    for display in ${VNCSERVERS}
    do
    export USER="${display##*:}"
    if test -z "${REQ_USER}" -o "${REQ_USER}" == ${USER} ; then
    echo -n "${display} "
    unset BASH_ENV ENV
    export USER="${display##*:}"
    su ${USER} -c "vncserver -kill :${display%%:*}" >/dev/null 2>&1
    fi
    done
    echo -e "\n"
    echo "VNCServer Stopped"
    }
    case "$1" in
    start)
    start $@
    ;;
    stop)
    stop $@
    ;;
    restart|reload)
    stop $@
    sleep 3
    start $@
    ;;
    condrestart)
    if [ -f /var/lock/subsys/vncserver ]; then
    stop $@
    sleep 3
    start $@
    fi
    ;;
    status)
    status Xvnc
    ;;
    *)
    echo $"Usage: $0 {start|stop|restart|condrestart|status}"
    exit 1
    esac
    Press CTRL + X, then press Y and finally ENTER to save the file.

    11. Make the VNC startup script executable
    Code:
    chmod +x /etc/init.d/vncserver
    12. Create the VNC server config file
    Create the directory
    Code:
    mkdir -p /etc/vncserver
    Create the file
    Code:
    nano /etc/vncserver/vncservers.conf
    Copy and paste this code again now:

    Code:
    VNCSERVERS="1:vncuser"
    VNCSERVERARGS[1]="-geometry 1024x768"
    Press CTRL + X, then Y, then ENTER to finally save the file.

    12. Make VNC server start on boot
    Code:
    update-rc.d vncserver defaults 99
    13. Reboot your VPS
    Finally you need to reboot your VPS
    Code:
    reboot

    14. Connect with TightVNC
    Now you'll need to connect to your VPS with TightVNC.
    Open TightVNC Viewer and put in your IP address. After the IP address, write :1
    That means that you are connecting to the IP on port 1.


    Finally click on "connect".
    You will be asked for a password. Enter your password which you've chosen to you vncuser.

    Now you are connected via desktop connection with your VPS!
    It will look like this:


    Click on "Use default config".
    Congratulations, that's it! You have created a desktop connection to Ubuntu 14.04!


    NOTE:
    If you want to run my java bots which i posted in the subscriber section, you'll need to download java first and after you've done that you'll need to mark the .jar file as executable.
    If you don't mark it as executable, the following error will occur:



    To install java, click here:


    Then search for OpenJDK Java 7 and click on install.


    Now open the Terminal.
    Type in this code:
    Code:
    chmod +x pathtothefile
    In my case to mark my iRazoo bot as executable i have to type in this code:
    chmod +x /home/vncuser/Desktop/iRazooBot_v1.4_by_Chillivanilli/irazoo_bot_v_1_4.jar


    Thats it!
    I hope you enjoyed my step by step tutorial and could create a VNC connection to your Ubuntu VPS.
    If you have any questions, feel free to ask!
