As Itamar mentioned if you are running the spice client inside a VM (dunno if this is case) you will need the guest paravirtual driver and/or services for mouse handling. I have observed exactly this behavior before when running the spice client in a VM when
the guest tools/drivers for mouse handling are not present (In my case most of the time VirtualBox).<br>

Very amusing "bug":) But cripples SPICE´s usage.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I have tested this from 5 different physical machines running Win7/IE, and this behavior shows itself only on machines with more than one monitor, or a laptop with another monitor attached .e.g. These guest tools you both mention, would these be "<a href="http://spice-space.org/download/binaries/spice-guest-tools-0.1.exe">http://spice-space.org/download/binaries/spice-guest-tools-0.1.exe</a>"?
And can you install them in a physical machine as well?</div>

<div class="im">This is awesome work, thank you so much for this! For our users and<br>
administrators, having a button you just click to get a console is sooo<br>
much easier than having to copy-paste a bunch of cryptic addresses and<br>

<br>
I followed the wiki instructions and a vital piece missing is to restart<br>
ovirt-engine before trying to install the spice-client from the install<br>
portal. I went back and read through the email you first posted and the<br>
restart was mentioned there so I did and then it worked! Wohoo! So you<br>
might want to add that point to the wiki page as well, to avoid future<br>
confusion.<br>
<br>
But...when I have virt-viewer(-0.5.3) installed, log in to webadmin and<br>
click for console on a guest, the console shows up. But when I try to go<br>
into the console window with the mouse cursor, the cursor jumps off to<br>
</div>
one of the edges of my *monitor*, and not into the console window- as
<div class="im"><br>
you would expect. Maybe virt-viewer mistakenly "thinks" that the edges<br>
of it´s window really are the edges of the whole monitor? Am I holding<br>
it wrong?<br>

<br>
do you have spice guest side drivers for local mouse handling?<br>

I have seen this question asked many times on this list<br>
and the spice-devel list. Now having figured out how to<br>
make it work I will provide the answer to the rest of<br>
the community.<br>
<br>
*NOTE* this only applies to Windows/Internet Explorer<br>
users. There exists no other option other than the html5<br>
spice console (still beta/in development) for windows<br>
users ATM. This will also only work with Internet Explorer.<br>
<br>
Basic Steps:<br>
- Install an oVirt server.<br>
- Add at least one node<br>
- Setup storage/iso/export domains<br>
<br>
Advanced steps<br>
- Start by downloading:<br>
<a href="http://elmarco.fedorapeople.org/spice.cab" target="_blank">http://elmarco.fedorapeople.<u></u>org/spice.cab</a><br>
- Create a directory for it oVirt looks by default in<br>
/usr/share/spice<br>
- Rename spice.cab to SpiceX.cab and copy it into<br>
/usr/share/spice<br>
- Now edit<br>
/usr/share/ovirt-engine/<u></u>engine.ear/root.war/WEB-INF and<br>
add the following:<br>
<br>
<!-- SpiceX.cab --><br>
<servlet><br>
<servlet-name>SpiceX.cab</<u></u>servlet-name><br>
<br>
<servlet-class>org.ovirt.<u></u>engine.core.FileServlet</<u></u>servlet-class><br>
<init-param><br>
<param-name>type</param-name><br>
<param-value>application/<u></u>octet-stream</param-value><br>
</init-param><br>
<init-param><br>
<param-name>file</param-name><br>
<param-value>/usr/share/spice/<u></u>SpiceX.cab</param-value><br>
</init-param><br>
</servlet><br>
<servlet-mapping><br>
<servlet-name>SpiceX.cab</<u></u>servlet-name><br>
<url-pattern>/spice/SpiceX.<u></u>cab</url-pattern><br>
</servlet-mapping><br>
<br>
- Next create an html file within<br>
/usr/share/ovirt-engine/<u></u>engine.ear/root.war<br>
- In the example below an html file called "spice.html"<br>
- Copy/Paste the below into spice.html:<br>
<br>
<!DOCTYPE html><br>
<html><br>
<head><br>
<title>SPICE Plugin Installer</title><br>
<br>
<script type="text/javascript"><br>
function installSpice()<br>
{<br>
try {<br>
document.getElementById('<u></u>SpiceX').innerHTML =<br>
'<OBJECT id="SpiceX" codebase="/spice/SpiceX.cab"<br>
classid="clsid:ACD6D89C-938D-<u></u>49B4-8E81-DDBD13F4B48A"<br>
width="0" height="0"></OBJECT>';<br>
} catch (ex) {<br>
alert("Epic Fail!: " + ex.Description);<br>
}<br>
}<br>
</script><br>
<br>
</head><br>
<body><br>
<p><br>
<p><b id='SpiceX'>Spice ActiveX Plugin</b> </p><br>
<button onclick='installSpice()'><u></u>Install Spice<br>
Plugin</button><br>
</p><br>
</body><br>
</html><br>
<br>
- Save the file<br>
- You will now need to restart the ovirt-engine service<br>
EG: systemctl restart ovirt-engine.service OR service<br>
ovirt-engine restart<br>
- The installer page will now be available at<br>
http://<url to ovirt server>/spice.html EX:<br>
<a href="http://ovirt.azeroth.net/spice.html" target="_blank">http://ovirt.azeroth.net/<u></u>spice.html</a><br>
- Navigate to that page and click the install button<br>
- IE will prompt you to deploy/install the SpiceX<br>
cabinet file<br>
- It may gripe about an unsigned or untrusted source,<br>
acknowledge this an proceed anyways<br>
- If the install succeeds the text "Spice ActiveX<br>
Plugin" on the page will change to blank (it's actually<br>
the plugin with null values)<br>
- The console button in the user and webadmin portals<br>
will now launch the new virt-viwer spice based console!<br>
<br>
Happy Spice Consoling to your VM's from Windows!<br>
<br>
*NOTE*<br>
To uninstall the plugin:<br>
- The below removes the add-on from IE (EG: removes<br>
knowledge of "application/x-spice")<br>
- pop a command terminal and type:<br>
On Windows XP: regsvr32 /u "C:\Documents and<br>
Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Application<br>
Data\virt-viewer\bin\SpiceX.<u></u>dll"<br>
On Windows 7 regsvr32 /u C:\Documents and<br>
Settings\Administrator\Local<br>
Settings\AppData\virt-viewer\<u></u>bin\SpiceX.dll"<br>
- Next we need to remove the rest of virt-viewer<br>
- Go to add/remove programs and uninstall virt-viewer,<br>
this removes the rest of virt-viewer from the system<br>
