Why do you use VNC and xrdp at the same time?

I'm using xrdp on Debian with Xfce and Remmina as client
and this works fine. I don't think I have configured anything
explicitly to get it running.

My startwm.sh looks like this one:
https://salsa.debian.org/debian-remote-team/xrdp/-/blob/master/debian/startwm.sh

xrdp can be configured to be quite verbose in its logfile/syslog, maybe
you could try enable more verbose log levels and then check the logs.

Enrico
