Hi,
the patch you've mentioned removes "X-UA-Compatible" meta-tag [1] from WebAdmin and UserPortal HTML page:
<!-- Directs IE to display the webpage in IE9 standards mode -->
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=9"/>
The purpose of this meta-tag was to future-proof the application with regard to IE9 as the supported browser in terms of rendering. In other words, IE10+ would render the application in IE9 standards mode.
To summarize:
- this meta-tag should have no effect in IE8 or IE9
- this meta-tag should force IE10+ to render the application in IE9 standards mode
Can you please try following:
1, recompile and redeploy Engine with UserPortal (mvn clean install -Pdep,gwt-user), clear IE browser cache and reload UserPortal, see if it works
2, include following meta-tag and try step 1, --> revert the original change
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=9"/>
3, include following meta-tag and try step 1, --> enforce IE8 standards mode for IE8
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=8, IE=9"/>

Ever since this change: http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/11078/
The webadmin and userportal UI no longer displays nor works correctly within Internet Explorer 8 or 9.
Under IE 8 or 9 the UI is pretty much an usable garbled mess. Everything looks and works fine under Chrome and Firefox.
Unfortunately Internet Exploder is a necessary evil for windows users to be able to get at SPICE consoles. (No spice plugin/support for Firefox/Chrome yet...)
