access from windows 7 to Opensuse Leap 42.3 doesn't work

Hello,

I try to access my OpenSuse Leap 42.3 box from Windows 7. I could connect successfully from OpenSuse 13.2 but since the upgrade to Leap 42.3 it doesn’t work anymore.

the xrpd service can’t be started.

systemctl start xrdp**.service doesn’t start the service

xrdp.sh stops with a failure (/etc/var/xrdp.log). But it doesn’t say more, just one line**

What is in the log file? What do you see from the following:


systemctl status xrdp


Good luck.
