Glish doesn't work
Linode
Linode Staff
When I launch the Glish console, it shows:
"noVNC ready: native WebSockets, canvas rendering"
What is the problem?

Usually, if your Linode is powered on and you can access it your terminal, then it is either a problem with your browser or the daemon hasn't started.
If you cannot access your Linode then there is an underlying problem not associated with Glish.
If you can reach your Linode via SSH or Lish and you have been able to access Glish before. I would try running the following command from via SSH or Lish as root:
exec /sbin/getty -8 38400 tty1 &
This command will start/replace the process required to run Glish in your browser.
Our Glish Guide can provide more details about how to run Glish if you have never installed or used it before.
Some people have had this problem before and tried the above and have found that ultimately it was their browser. When this happens I would try a different browser and see if this solves the problem. There may be a plug-in or update that has changed and blocked your access.
