vncserver: Can't create pid file '/root/.vnc/localhost.localdomain:5901.pid': Required key not available

Then I deleted .vnc and tried again, however now this error

root@localhost:~/.vnc# vncserver :1

May be the .vnc folder contens are missing or corrupted
Try do this

1. Remove .vnc folder rm -rf ~/.vnc
2. purge tigervnc apt install --reinstall tigervnc-standalone-server -y
3. Remove Unix locks rm -rf /tmp/X11-unix/*

Reconfigure vnc

1. Set password vncpasswd
2. Start VNC vncserver :1

To prevent future errors be sure you kill the server before leaving it
vncserver --kill :1

Do apt install -f

I reinstalled by proot-distro reset hippo, and found this error

Also, I ran apt update at first, it returned errors. Something went wrong at my end, I guess

[SaicharanKandukuri]

The logs you shown they happen in all devices.

[mizzunet]

Oh

[SaicharanKandukuri]

Ya they happen proot-distro sets up groups

[mizzunet]

The error 126: Required key not available seems like mount issue

[mizzunet]

I tried chown root:root /*
This happens

chown: changing ownership of '/system': Read-only file system
chown: changing ownership of '/vendor': Read-only file system

[SaicharanKandukuri]

Ya you can't change permissions for /system and /vendor, cause it is working in proot and android won't allow to do it

This also happens in all devices when you do chown root:root /* and

chown: changing ownership of '/system': Read-only file system
chown: changing ownership of '/vendor': Read-only file system
