Prompting for rdp credentials not working: guacamole 1.3.0 from docker image

[Bogdan Tomasciuc <bo...@gmail.com>]

Hi,
After updating to 1.3.0 I was expecting to get the prompt to enter
credentials if I deleted them in the connection configuration. Instead it
fails to connect.
Using guagamole and guacd docker images with mysql backend.

Is it a docker image ptoblem or do I have to take extra steps to get the
new feature?

Extra info. I tried with a Guacamole instance compiled from sources and it
worked fine prompting for credentials bu I would really like to see it
working on my docker installations too.

Thank you for the help an congratulations for a great product!

Best regards,
Bogdan

Indeed, Nick! You were right! During the update the guacd image was left
behind at 1.2.0. Checking the logs as you suggested pointed out that guacd
was running version 1.2.0. although I was positive I had upgraded it.
Pulling the new version provided the coveted credentials prompt. Thank you
very much, Nick!

Best regards,

A couple of things to check:
1) When you updated, did you update both guacamole-client and guacd? The
prompting functionality requires that both of those components be at 1.3.0
in order to function.
2) What do guacd logs say? Since you're using Docker, you should be able to
do "docker logs <guacd container>", replacing guacd with the name of the
container. I would follow/tail the logs and watch what error you get when
connecting without credentials.

There's no reason it shouldn't work using Docker.
