Black screen on vnc and grey screen on iLo, possible /run/user/1000/dconf/user problem?

Hi all,
I'm getting a black screen when connected to my HP server on VNC, and a grey screen when connected remotely via iLo. I checked the Code:/var/log/messages and noticed that there were a lot of the error messages shown below. I'm not sure if they're related.
Code:XDG_RUNTIME_DIR (/run/user/1000) is not owned by us (uid 0), but by uid 1000! (This could e g happen if you try to connect to a non-root PulseAudio as a root user, over the native protocol. Don't do that.)

unable to create file '/run/user/1000/dconf/user': Too many open files. dconf will not work properly.
<repeats multiple times>Strange thing is my /run/user/ folder only contains subfolders 0 and 42, no 1000.
The output of echo $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is /run/user/0
I have restarted the server several times and nothing works. I'm able to ssh into the server though, and login using the root account.
Thank you.
