Thanks for your quick response!
So the “which” command didn’t give me any output and the second one gave me this:
https://paste.osmc.tv/onewuvecid
Ok, I never used the install script from @MarkusLange but I would assume it also installs into /usr/bin where you don’t have the server.
Did you actually run Install VNC Server and Service?
What I did was follow MakusLange’s steps above;
Grep the install file:
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MarkusLange/VNC-Server-install-script-for-OSMC/master/osmc_vnc_install_cli.bash 183
Make it executable:
chmod +x osmc_vnc_install_cli.bash
Start the GUI with:
sudo ./osmc_vnc_install_cli.bash
Well then when in the GUI you need to run:
Install VNC Server and Service- Either
Activate VNC Service(Permanent) orStart VNC(manual every time you need it)
Yes that’s what I did indeed using the GUI. Sorry forgot to mention that 
When I tried it again it even asked me to replace the existing files.
Ok, then there must be a problem with the script.
I checked the script and that step would sudo cp dispmanx_vncserver /usr/bin which means if all works you should have /usr/bin/dispmanx_vncserver which you don’t have.
What is ls -lah /etc/dispmanx_vncserver.conf giving you?
It gives me this:
-rw-r–r-- 1 root root 200 Nov 17 13:59 /etc/dispmanx_vncserver.conf
Ok, means config generation worked.
Suggest to follow this steps manually 1 by 1 to see what fails (I assume one of the package names have changed)
sudo apt-get install build-essential rbp-userland-dev-osmc libvncserver-dev libconfig++-dev unzip
cd /home/osmc
sudo wget https://github.com/patrikolausson/dispmanx_vnc/archive/master.zip
unzip master.zip -d /home/osmc/
rm master.zip
cd dispmanx_vnc-master
make
sudo apt-get install build-essential rbp-userland-dev-osmc libvncserver-dev libconfig+±dev unzip
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 2 not upgraded.
rm master.zip
rm: remove write-protected regular file ‘master.zip’?
Then I put Y, but no output.
After I did the last step “make” I got the following outuput:

Ok, not all was clearly readable. But can you do ls -lah * | paste-log in that directory.
Ok, looks good, now execute
sudo cp dispmanx_vncserver /usr/bin
sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/dispmanx_vncserver
`
And post output of ls -lah /etc/systemd/system/dispmanx_vncserver.service | paste-log
The first two commands didn’t give me an output and I did not see a change of directory, but here is the log:
Or should I have done this from my osmc home directory instead or staying in the dispmanx_vnc-master dir?
No it was Ok, there would have been an output
Ok, looks all good still not sure where the issue was before.
Now run sudo systemctl start dispmanx_vncserver.service
Then try to connect via VNC

YOU ARE HERO!!! 
Thank you so much for your patience and dedication
So if you want to have the VNC server run automatically after a reboot your would need to run
sudo systemctl enable dispmanx_vncserver.service
sudo systemctl daemon-reload

done! Thanks again Fzinken
Hello,
thanks fzinken, I touched this script last 14 Months ago, if I followed you right, by hand all commands work, but not from the script? So this is the part I can’t follow I you. All you make looks like in the script. Has someone a hint for me?
