OK - I tried putting a line reading 'echo xxx > /home/me/xstartup.log' into my xstartup file (I then ran xstartup to make sure it got executed correctly, and it did). I ran vncserver, and the 'xstartup.log' file was not created, so it looks like xstartup is not getting executed for some reason.
I then tried creating a .vncrc file containing the line '$vncStartup = "$ENV{HOME}/.vnc/xstartup";'. This time, when I started vncserver instead of saying 'Starting applications specified in /etc/X11/Xsession' it said 'Starting applications specified in .vnc/xstartup' however when I connected to the vnc session, there was still no windowmanager. When I checked the logs this time there was a line to the effect of '/bin/windowmaker - cannot open display debian:1'.
