One common support issue we get is about the error message “No executable profiles could be found” that appears when trying to login to a ThinLinc session.
The most common cause of this is that a session cant start because no working desktop environment is installed on the system. Many Linux distributions are available as “minimal” installs, this could mean that a desktop isn’t included.
To check which desktop environments you have installed, you can run this command:
ls /usr/share/xsessions
Examples of desktop environments are GNOME, XFCE, Mate, KDE and Cinnamon.
Note that if you run a ThinLinc cluster, only the Agents need to have working desktop environments.
