From the engine I am able to create Vms and do other operations on them, its only that the console is not connecting.

Hi Itamar,

During the installation of the ovirt-engine I have followed the steps as
mentioned on your website/wiki. All other functionality are fine, its
only the console that is giving me problems. Host IP is resolvable. The
fedora machine that I tried it actually the localhost (same VM - my
ovirt engine is on a VM) where my ovirt-engine resides. As a measure to
check if firewall is creating some problems, I stopped the iptables too
(I dont think this should be the problem).

when you added the host to engine, which ip address/hostname did you use?

Hi Itamar and others,

In reference to the problem that I had posted yesterday you
(Itamar) had
asked for the spice log on my machine. I have attached the spice log
that gets generated each time when I start the console (gets
generated
under ~/.spicec/spicec.log.)

Also, I see connection refused but i am not sure on which
address/port
is it trying to connect and failing. Do I need to start some
service or
something. I tried disabling my firewall.. but that doesn't help
too.
I tried using the VNC console option too but when I select VNC the
console option itself gets disabled.

All the above I tried on a fedora box with firefox 11 +
spice-xpi . I
also gave a try with windows IE9 . That also doesnt work. (In IE
even
after clicking console.. I dont see any activity happening.)

did you install the host from engine, with 'configure iptables' ? is
iptables enabled on the host? is the host ip resolveable from client?
