Hello i have a bit of a problem using websockify.
I made executable for windows, then i start my websockify in cmd:
c:\web\websockify.exe 192.168.1.70:5901 192.168.1.70:5900
WARNING: no ‘resource’ module, daemonizing is slower or disabled
WebSocket server settings:
-
Listen on 192.168.1.70:5901
-
Flash security policy server
-
No SSL/TLS support (no cert file)
-
proxying from 192.168.1.70:5901 to 192.168.1.70:5900
so far all good. In the background VNC server is running on the same
computer at port 5900. The thing is i need to use websockify to be
able to use novnc on the other computer in local network.
I have latest novnc installed on latest XAMPP server (apache 2.2).
When i start vnc.html it asks for server, port, password. I typed
them in and press connect. I get an error on the websockify side:
WARNING: no ‘resource’ module, daemonizing is slower or disabled
Usage:
websockify.exe [options] [source_addr:]source_port target_addr:target_port
websockify.exe [options] [source_addr:]source_port -- WRAP_COMMAND_LINE
websockify.exe: error: no such option: –multiprocessing-fork
I can’t connect using noVNC. I searched for internet to find solution
but did not find it.
Can someone help me get this apps together runnig?
or is there some more windows friendly solution with some other app that
does what websockify does?

Did you follow this guide? https://github.com/kanaka/websockify/wiki/Compiling-Websockify-as-Windows-Executable
Websockify uses the python multiprocessing module. This module is problematic on Windows, especially with older versions of python. You might try python 3.2 or greater and see if you have more success although no guarantees. Websockify is developed and tested on Linux only.
There used to be a pre-built version of Websockify for Windows that at least worked without multiprocessing (one client at a time), however, github dropped support for downloads so this build is no longer available.
Disclaimer: I made websockify.
