Hi, I seems very difficult to get this working. I have a Fedora 17 client, installed spice-xpi and tried to access console from User Portal but console never shows up. engine.log prints: 2012-08-07 15:56:18,738 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.SetVmTicketCommand] (ajp--0.0.0.0-8009-13) [2a8bc3f4] Running command: SetVmTicketCommand internal: false.

VDSM and libvirt are all active and validate fine towards the engine; have status "UP" and so on, but can't get SPICE console working. VNC works of course, but SPICE would be much cooler:) How do I get console working with SPICE? Best Regards Karli Sjöberg
