I am using the MATE desktop if that makes a difference.
Here are my notes for getting vnc to work on Centos 7 with mate:
VNCSERVER SETUP
To start vncserver: systemctl start vncserver@1:service
to kill and restart the vnc server as a user: vncserver -kill :1 vncserver :1
To get mate to show up use the follow text in your
~.vnc/xstartup file:
#!/bin/sh
# Uncomment the following two lines for normal desktop: # unset SESSION_MANAGER unset DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS # exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc
