Re: [Users] Blank VM Install Console
Hi Michal, I am starting from scratch. I set the console to SPICE and restarted the VM. Now if I choose "Browser plugin" as console option, there is a pop up window saying setting up spice then an error message saying it's fail to connect to the graphics server. I guess this might be because my browser machine doesn't have connection to the ovirt-node machine. It has to go through ovirt-engine machine If I choose SPICE HTML5, then a new browser window shows up but it remains dark. I can't see anything. Any idea what's wrong or missing? I don't see an "Spice proxy" option. So which option should I use to fit into my setup? None of them seems to work so far. I 'd like to pick the most promising one and pursue it further.

Hi Michal, Should I use SPICE as console protocol in order to use web proxy?

Re: [Users] Blank VM Install Console
Hi Michal, Itamar asked me to write to you about how to use WebProxy to access the VM console. I have a set up like this on three different physical servers: Browser (RHEL6, firefox 24.2.0) --- ovirt-engine --- host (CPU) However the browser machine doesn't have direct connection to the host. It can only go through ovirt-engine machine to access the host. It might be for this reason that I have failed in using SPICE and VNC to see the VM console. Is websocket proxy the viable solution in this case? What are the steps to set up such a connection? Any pointers?

This time I tried to use "spice html5 browser client". I
downloaded the cert from http:///ovirt-engine/ca.crt. This time
the console window " spice javascript client" showed up in the firefox
(24.2.0) but it stays gray. Nothing can be seen.
So what else am I missing here?
just to rule out things:
- is the geust working correctly for you (ssh?)
- does it happen to consume 100% cpu?
- does vnc work for you correctly for this guest?
During install, are you sure you said yes to install websocket proxy?
Thanks,
michal

IE11 doesn't really work as of now.
Try some more reasonable browser, IE10 would be also fine.

by the way
worst comes to worst you can always connect
to the ovirt
vm node
server via virt-manager gui in linux .. or
using macports
virt-manager
in OSX
and as long as you have a username and
password set up in
libvirt
password db
/etc/libvirt/passwd.db
use saslpasswd2 -a libvirt $USER on your
ovirt vm host
node
to add your user account so you dont mess
with ovirt's
if you have winaxe or some other Xwindows on
your windows
machine you
could probably just ssh with putty.exe to
your ovirt node

I also tried " browser plugin" option by installing spice-xpi on my RHEL6 (which runs the

yuck
i dont know why they do not just have this already done in an rpm
yes it probably works , i have not tested it , but virt-viewer is
deprecated in favor of the newer Remote-Viewer
by the way
worst comes to worst you can always connect to the ovirt vm node
server via virt-manager gui in linux .. or using macports virt-manager
in OSX
and as long as you have a username and password set up in libvirt
password db
/etc/libvirt/passwd.db
use saslpasswd2 -a libvirt $USER on your ovirt vm host node
to add your user account so you dont mess with ovirt's
if you have winaxe or some other Xwindows on your windows machine you
could probably just ssh with putty.exe to your ovirt node server and
run
virt-manager from there while displaying back to your windows desktop

install them wherever your firefox browser is installed...
whichever machine you are using to browse to the portal from
unfortunately i believe ovirts' spice viewing only works on
linux
desktops running firefox currently
also the ovirt vnc implementation assumes you have
remote-viewer which
can open that .vv file that pops up.. again remote-viewer would
only be
available on linux desktops..
there IS a MAC OS port for remote-viewer , but i've never
gotten it to
work without a lot of manual URL input

Re: [Users] Blank VM Install Console
yuck i dont know why they do not just have this already done in an rpm yes it probably works , i have not tested it , but virt-viewer is deprecated in favor of the newer Remote-Viewer by the way worst comes to worst you can always connect to the ovirt vm node server via virt-manager gui in linux .. or using macports virt-manager in OSX and as long as you have a username and password set up in libvirt password db /etc/libvirt/passwd.db use saslpasswd2 -a libvirt $USER on your ovirt vm host node to add your user account so you dont mess with ovirt's if you have winaxe or some other Xwindows on your windows machine you could probably just ssh with putty.exe to your ovirt node server and run virt-manager from there while displaying back to your windows desktop -Original Message- From: David Li Reply-to: David Li To: Madhav V Diwan Cc: users@ovirt.org Subject: Re: [Users] Blank VM Install Console Date: Thu, 16 Jan 2014 13:35:02 -0800 (PST) Is this page still applicable to ovirt 3.3.2? http://wiki.ovirt.org/How_to_Connect_to_SPICE_Console_With_Portal#Add_a_deployment_method_Server_Side - Original Message - > From: Madhav V Diwan > To: David Li > Cc: "users@ovirt.org" > Sent: Thursday, January 16, 2014 1:28 PM > Subject: Re: [Users] Blank VM Install Console > > install them wherever your firefox browser is installed... > whichever machine you are using to browse to the portal from > > unfortunately i believe ovirts' spice viewing only works on linux > desktops running firefox currently > > also the ovirt vnc implementation assumes you have remote-viewer which > can open that .vv file that pops up.. again remote-viewer would only be > available on linux desktops.. > > there IS a MAC OS port for remote-viewer , but i've never gotten it to > work without a lot of manual URL input > > > -Original Message- > From: David Li > Reply-to: David Li > To: Madhav V Diwan > Cc: users@ovirt.org > Subject: Re: [Users] Blank VM Install Console > Date: Thu, 16 Jan 2014 11:39:20 -0800 (PST) > > > Do I need these to be installed on the engine or on the machine where the > webadmin portal browser is being run? > > Are there any ovirt links describing these? > > david > > > > - Original Message - >> From: Madhav V Diwan >> To: David Li >> Cc: "users@ovirt.org" >> Sent: Thursday, January 16, 2014 10:35 AM >> Subject: Re: [Users] Black VM Install Console >> >> you ve probabaly not install teh spice xpi in your firefox on linux when >> you opened the console , or maybe the remote-viewer application is >> missing >> >> use yum to install these >> >> >> >> >> -Original Message-R >> eply-to: David Li >> >> Subject: [Users] Black VM Install Console >> Date: Thu, 16 Jan 2014 10:08:13 -0800 (PST) >> >> Hi, >> >> My first time to install a VM on ovirt has encountered a problem.

Not quite right. I have virt-viewer-x86-0.5.6.msi or virt-viewer-0.5.6.exe installed on my windows 7 pc and that works fine with ovirt-3.2/3 or higher. Opens both vnc and spice consoles. The latest virt-viewer-x86-0.5.7.msi seems to be missing remote-viewer.exe so does indeed not work on windows.
