Output after vnc start is called

Description of problem:
When I run the vnc server start command, I get "could not open default font 'fixed'". I've seen some defects regarding this but I'm using RHEL 6.3 in this case.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Xvnc TigerVNC 1.1.0 - built Nov 26 2012 10:15:00
RHEL 2.6.32-279.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:
1) Install RHEL 6.3 Basic
2) Install "Desktop Platform" group
3) install xorg-x11-fonts-100dpi.noarch xorg-x11-fonts-75dpi.noarch xorg-x11-fonts-cyrillic.noarch xorg-x11-fonts-misc.noarch
4) install tigervnc-server tigervnc
5) create required user and set its passwd and vncpasswd
  
Actual results:
See attachment. Same result with root or any user

Expected results:
Be able to connect with VNC
