[ovirt-users] no console connections

[Frantisek Kobzik]

Hi Jim,

websocket-proxy is only related to noVNC and SPICE-HTML5 browser clients.

Couple of questions:
 - is there something suspicious in the engine.log?
 - have you also tried VNC console connection?
 - which console mode do you use? 'Browser plugin' or 'Native'? (you can get this info in Console options dlg in the web UI)
 - do you have firewall on hosts properly configured? Are the console ports accessible?
 - could you please try switching to spice 'Native' mode? After this, web browser should serve you .vv file and if your browser is not configured to directly open .vv files you could inspect its content for abnormalities.

If you need further help, feel free to ask!

Cheers,
Franta.

Hi, 

I have a fresh install of 3.4 on centOS 6.5 with a centOS 6.5-based host (not an all-in-one). 

When trying to do a first test install of CentOS 7 (or 6.5 or RHEL or...) I can't get a spice console screen to connect. The error message is "Can't connect to graphics server (null)". 

I doubt it's an issue on my desktop as I have another ovirt 3.4 install that I can connect to from my desktop. This is a new one that will take over from an all-in-one test system. 

All the server system have proper DNS entries and can be reached directly from my desktop. Could this be related to the websocket proxy server? I get the same results with the proxy off or on (it's not configured beyond basic install from engine-setup).
