You'll need the latest version of gtk-vnc, or at least the minimum that is specified in the packaged virt-manager spec file. Make sure all other dependencies in the spec file are met on your machine as well. - Cole

Re: Connecting to a remote libvirtd host usingvirt-manger

Jon Smith — 2008-12-02T02:41:40

Server is CentOS 5.2, client is fedora 9. Virt-manager version is 0.5.4 binary RPM from the Fedora repo. The server was Fedora 9 but I installed CentOS 5.2 on it today and it's using the Xen kernel now and having the same trouble. Again, locally, virt-manager works fantastically, but when I try to connect remotely it gives me trouble. I don't know how it could possibly matter, but I'm connecting back to another location using vpnc and then opening virt-manager, so I've got maybe 150ms latency to the libvirtd host. I've been launching virt-manager from Applications -> System Tools -> Virtual Machine Manager. Also I've launched it a few times with something similar to: $virt-manager -c xen+ssh://10.2.30.12/system. Now I've also tried: $virt-manager --no-fork -c xen+ssh://10.2.30.12/system (no password prompt by the way). It seems to be logging in because, like I said, if I stop libvirtd, I get a list of the available guests on the libvirtd server. And actually once I connect if I wait 15 or 20 minutes i

Ah, I take it you are using the virt-manager 0.6.0 release. There were some python2.5 specific pieces that crept into the release, so you will need to apply this patch: http://hg.et.redhat.com/virt/applications/virt-manager--devel?cs=a8cafeaa92a6 Or you can try building from an upstream checkout. - Cole

Cole Robinson — 2008-12-01T19:10:38

There's already a bug tracking a similar request for virt-manager: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=452671 Though any complete solution will need work at the virtinst level too, so in my mind it covers both. Thanks, Cole

Re: running virt-manager

Cole Robinson — 2008-12-01T19:01:00

You'll need to find out where libvirt 'make install' placed the python bindings (look for file 'libvirt.py'), and set the environment variable PYTHONPATH to that directory. - Cole

Re: FYI: Changes to virtinst test suite

Cole Robinson — 2008-12-01T15:53:05

Completely agreed on releasing more often: the huge lapse between the previous two releases was no good. I think pushing new virtinst + virt-manager in a couple weeks would be fine, there are still a couple other things I'd like to pick off until then. Going forward, my goal is to have an actual schedule, and transparency wrt planned features, timelines, etc. Thanks, Cole

Re: [PATCH] virtinst: also look at xorg.conf forkeymap

One other thing: could you rename this to _xorg_keymap so it isn't confused for a public function? Thanks, Cole

Couple small nits: This is unused ('python setup.py check' will warn about this :) This logging isn't really accurate here. Maybe 'Didn't find keymap in xorg.conf' The rest looks fine. Thanks, Cole

Re: [PATCH] Use netcat if found

Daniel P. Berrange — 2008-12-01T15:26:48

This used to be the case with Debian/Ubuntu, but they now provide the 'nc' binary too. In addition the 'netcat' binary they also ship does not work with libvirt since it doesn't support UNIX sockets. Finally the patch is wrong because its doing + if os.path.exists('/usr/bin/netcat'): + netcat = "netcat" which is in the context of the machine virt-manager is running on, which is totally bogus when connecting to a remote machine. Daniel

Re: [PATCH] Use netcat if found

Cole Robinson — 2008-12-01T15:12:52

I'd rather keep things operating the same if 'nc' is present, which would mean using 'netcat' only if 'nc' isn't available. Is there a reason we should prefer netcat over nc, or is it just that your distro provides one and not the other? Thanks, Cole

Re: [PATCH] Fix lookup pool by path

Cole Robinson — 2008-12-01T15:07:45

Hmm, so your pool xml lists the target directory with a trailing slash? I'm not seeing that. What version of libvirt are you using, and can you provide the pools xml? Thanks, Cole
