Hi,

This error usually occur when vncserver does not installed successfully.

Please run the command in Desktop Environment feature and post the screenshots if any error occur.

You can now start vncserver by running vncserver-start

It will ask you to enter a password when first time starting it.

The VNC Server will be started at 127.0.0.1:5901

You can connect to this address with a VNC Viewer you prefer

Connect to this address will open a window with Xfce4 Desktop Environment

Running vncserver-start

To Kill VNC Server just run vncserver-stop

/usr/local/bin/vncserver-start: line 4: vncserver: command not found root@localhost:~#`

Hope you can help me, thank you. My device is Huawei MediaPad M5 lite (BAH2-W19), Android 8.0.
