Package: virt-viewer Version: 0.4.0-1 Severity: important Tags: upstream Usertags: pca-virtualization
Hi there! 0.4.0-1 is supposed to solve this issue thanks to: <http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-libvirt/virt-viewer.git;a=commitdiff;h=2376c067bd80cf68c425d51982deece3e6129e1a> However, it seems this is not enough, given that I get the following: ===== luca@gismo:~$ virt-viewer --debug --connect qemu+ssh://mantissa.pca.it/system shelob.pca.it ** (virt-viewer:13938): DEBUG: Opening connection to libvirt with URI qemu+ssh://mantissa.pca.it/system ** (virt-viewer:13938): DEBUG: Add handle 6 1 0x1b86250 Enter passphrase for key '/home/luca/.ssh/id_rsa': ** (virt-viewer:13938): DEBUG: Add timeout 0x1b88340 -1 0x7f4d89cf4610 0x1b87fc0 1 ** (virt-viewer:13938): DEBUG: Guest shelob.pca.it is running, determining display ** (virt-viewer:13938): DEBUG: Guest shelob.pca.it has a vnc display ** (virt-viewer:13938): DEBUG: Guest graphics address is localhost:5900 ** (virt-viewer:13938): DEBUG: Opening indirect TCP connection to display at localhost:5900 ** (virt-viewer:13938): DEBUG: Setting up SSH tunnel via (null)@mantissa.pca.it:22 Bad port '0' ** (virt-viewer:13938): DEBUG: Display size request 50x50 (desktop 100x100) ** (virt-viewer:13938): DEBUG: Allocated 1022x739 ** (virt-viewer:13938): DEBUG: Child allocate 739x739 ** (virt-viewer:13938): DEBUG: Guest shelob.pca.it display has disconnected, shutting down luca@gismo:~$ virt-viewer --debug --connect qemu+ssh://mantissa.pca.it:22023/system shelob.pca.it [...] ** (virt-viewer:13954): DEBUG: Guest graphics address is localhost:5900 ** (virt-viewer:13954): DEBUG: Opening indirect TCP connection to display at localhost:5900 ** (virt-viewer:13954): DEBUG: Setting up SSH tunnel via (null)@mantissa.pca.it:22023 ** (virt-viewer:13954): DEBUG: Display size request 50x50 (desktop 100x100) ** (virt-viewer:13954): DEBUG: Allocated 1022x739 ** (virt-viewer:13954): DEBUG: Child allocate 739x739 ** (virt-viewer:13954): DEBUG: desktop resize 720x400 ** (virt-viewer:13954): DEBUG: Preparing main window resize ** (virt-viewer:13954): DEBUG: Decided todo 720x400 (desktop is 720x400, fullscreen is 1024x768 ** (virt-viewer:13954): DEBUG: Display size request 720x400 (desktop 720x400) ** (virt-viewer:13954): DEBUG: Allocated 1022x739 ** (virt-viewer:13954): DEBUG: Child allocate 1022x567 ** (virt-viewer:13954): DEBUG: Display size request 50x50 (desktop 720x400) ** (virt-viewer:13954): DEBUG: Allocated 1022x739 ** (virt-viewer:13954): DEBUG: Child allocate 1022x567 luca@gismo~$ ===== Once again, the error reported is completely misleading, something that seems to be a constant with libvirt-related packages :-( Anyway, the same is true for 0.4.1-1, except for the fact that specifying the SSH port does not work anymore, bingo! Have I already said that I hate when someone tries to be smarter than my config files? Despite myself not being an expert programmer, there are two problems: 1) in src/virt-viewer-app.c:322 the ssh -p switch should be used only if the SSH port is defined, reflecting src/virt-viewer-app.c:327. Fixing this was enough to have virt-viewer working with my ~/.ssh/config, because... 2) in src/virt-viewer-app.c:1093 the SSH port is always set to 0, completely ignoring the value specified in the URI. Together with those, the function virt_viewer_app_open_tunnel_ssh in src/virt-viewer-app.c is a bit "problematic", given that global variables like host, port and user, defined for SSH, are actually redefined for the nc tunnel. I will send a patch fixing this mess once this bug has got a number. Feel free to forward it to upstream, as it is or modified. The license is the same as virt-viewer ;-) Thx, bye, Gismo / Luca -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.0.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages virt-viewer depends on: ii libc6 2.13-15 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.23.5-3 GDK Pixbuf library ii libglib2.0-0 2.28.6-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk-vnc-1.0-0 0.4.3-4.1 VNC viewer widget for GTK+2 (runti ii libgtk2.0-0 2.24.5-4 GTK+ graphical user interface libr ii libvirt0 0.9.4~rc1-1 library for interfacing with diffe ii libxml2 2.7.8.dfsg-4 GNOME XML library virt-viewer recommends no packages.
