Good morning,
We have taken CentOs VM from 1&1 provider. At a first, they have installed centos 7 without any graphical interface.
At a second time, I have added graphical interface using the command yum -y groups install "GNOME Desktop".
I now connect to the centos7 using a putty. After logging in, I type the command startx, but i get the following error
(==) Log file: "/var/log/Xorg.1.log", Time: Tue Jul 17 02:52:26 2018
(==) Using config directory: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d"
(==) Using system config directory "/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d" pci id for fd 15: 102b:0534, driver (null) EGL_MESA_drm_image required. EGL_MESA_drm_image required.
-- here i have used to Ctrl+C to come out from executing the command
^Cxinit: connection to X server lost
waiting for X server to shut down (II) Server terminated successfully (0). Closing log file. xinit: unexpected signal 2
As a result, graphical interface does not start. Any help to solve this problem ?
Best regards,
Ram

Re: CentoOS7 CLI to GUI
You cannot run startx over an ssh connection. It needs to run at a local console.
I suspect you need to look at installing, configuring and using a VNC connection instead.

The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.
