This bug still exists on Ubuntu Server 12.04 (32-bit).
As already mentioned earlier, you can simply ssh into your kvm server
and start virt-manager with remote forwarding. Unless your network is
really slow, you will get a reasonable performance with that (use the
option -C for ssh). I'm using
This bug is about being able to browse local iso media on the client.
You need to create a storage pool on the server to browse an iso file on
the server:
1- Select remote connection
2- Select Edit/Connection details from top menu
3- Click on storage tab
4- Click on +
5- Give it a name, and
Actually, after reading this bug through, it mentions not being able to
read an iso on the server too. This has been working for a long time
now. Marking bug as fixed.
Please file a new bug if browsing an iso file in a storage pool on the
server isn't working for you.

If you place your .iso files into the default storage pool at
/var/lib/libvirt/images you can browse to them.

even after placing .iso files into the default location I'm running into
an error: Checking installer location failed: Could not find media
'/var/lib/libvirt/images/debian-504-amd64-netinst.iso'.
I have tried changing the file ownership and permissions.

Thanks for reporting this issue.
Can you still reproduce this on a more recent version of virt-manager,
such as the one in Karmic or Lucid?

Creating a new virtual machine does not allow to select ISO image
Hi Marc,
I'm not on Ubuntu at the moment but Fedora 13 so I can only speak for
this release. F13 ships with virt-manager 0.8.3 and this version still
has that bug, one still cannot choose an ISO file when connecting to a
remote kvm server with virt-manager. I think it might be better to
report it
Thanks Adrian. If you open an upstream bug, could you please add it here
for tracking purposes?

I succeeded in using an ISO image, while connected with qemu+ssh. This
requires that you add a storage pool with iso volumes in it. Then, you
can just type the path to the iso on the server.
The bug still stands. You have to know the path and can't browse for the
file.

Creating a new virtual
I do expect that to work, slow as it might be.
The point is that you should be able to select the ISO, even if that ISO is
only located on the server.
Launching virt-manager remotely defeats the point of having built-in SSH
support. I'm also not a big fan of installing an entire desktop
Do you really expect to have the ISO tunneled over SSH? I'm not sure
that would be a great thing. But I agree the dialog should be presented
some other way.
One option is to store the ISO images on the server and launch virt-
manager remotely:
$ ssh -X u...@host virt-manager
