xpra tray reads "1 clipboard requests in progress"
and "everything" hangs. Re-attaching does not helps.
This looks very much like this bug report: Copy to clipboard fails on Win10, 64bit. The correct fix for this is to move away from GTK's clipboard code: #812.
Until then, python3 / gtk3 builds should work better since we can't use set_with_data there (they've removed the function - yet another reason for not using GTK's clipboard code).
For the python2 / gtk2 builds please try r21867 or later. (beta posted)
Would you please post a Client build?

That was already done before I posted comment:1.
I have now added a newer python3 build, not that this should make any difference to this particular ticket. The change from r21867 is only used with python2.
I maybe should've explicitly narrowed it down :-D an xpra python2 client non-installation build.
Basically, something that ends with .zip, and doesn't require administration rights, installation etc
Or, I don't know; I thought they were still a thing since the discussion on another ticket. They seem to suit just fine to jump between revisions / python versions in the client side

Ah, right. Those ones. I usually skip those for expediency. Done now.
Can I close this for 2.5?
See also #2138
Proper long term solution: #812
I don't disagree with worksforme and #812 solution.
However, it still doesn't work for me (see attachment)
client output
server log

The client log no longer contains the GtkWarning: OpenClipboard failed: Access is denied.
What is the symptom? Does it just hang like that? Can you run it with -d all?
Does it work with the latest python3 builds?
Does it work if you disable clipboard synchronization?
Replying to Antoine Martin:
The client log no longer contains the
GtkWarning: OpenClipboard failed: Access is denied.What is the symptom? Does it just hang like that? Can you run it with
-d all?
Yes it does. I can try -d all in a couple of hours
Does it work with the latest python3 builds?
For the server or the client?
Does it work if you disable clipboard synchronization?
Yes, everything goes down smoothly

For the server or the client?
Client.
Here are all the diagnostics requested.
tl;dr: I didn't see python2 stucking like that, but no meaningful output is coming with either python version. Missing GUI might be some sort of Heisenbug.
Result is the same: Server seems to be "all good" (session is started, listed etc), but client is stuck on that state)
I am not sure if you fixed this, but according to #2284 resolution (fixed, worksforme), and that they use "similar commands to invoke", it seems that I don't see that problem anymore.
Feel free to re-open if this re-occurs.
I am pretty confident that the retry approach is correct, if inelegant.
