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). Very amusing "bug":) But cripples SPICE´s usage. 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 "http://spice-space.org/download/binaries/spice-guest-tools-0.1.exe"? And can you install them in a physical machine as well? /Karli - DHC On Wed, Sep 12, 2012 at 3:49 PM, Itamar Heim <ih...@redhat.com<mailto:ih...@redhat.com>> wrote: On 09/12/2012 05:21 PM, Karli Sjöberg wrote: This is awesome work, thank you so much for this! For our users and administrators, having a button you just click to get a console is sooo much easier than having to copy-paste a bunch of cryptic addresses and passwords, and having to use the infamous, dangerous hacker tool VNC:) I followed the wiki instructions and a vital piece missing is to restart ovirt-engine before trying to install the spice-client from the install portal. I went back and read through the email you first posted and the restart was mentioned there so I did and then it worked! Wohoo! So you might want to add that point to the wiki page as well, to avoid future confusion. But...when I have virt-viewer(-0.5.3) installed, log in to webadmin and click for console on a guest, the console shows up. But when I try to go into the console window with the mouse cursor, the cursor jumps off to one of the edges of my *monitor*, and not into the console window- as you would expect. Maybe virt-viewer mistakenly "thinks" that the edges of it´s window really are the edges of the whole monitor? Am I holding it wrong? do you have spice guest side drivers for local mouse handling? /Karli 6 sep 2012 kl. 22.36 skrev Dead Horse: Wiki page added.

Can you wiki'fy it (@ wiki.ovirt.org<http://wiki.ovirt.org/> <http://wiki.ovirt.org/>) ? Y. +1 Thanks! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ I have seen this question asked many times on this list and the spice-devel list. Now having figured out how to make it work I will provide the answer to the rest of the community. *NOTE* this only applies to Windows/Internet Explorer users. There exists no other option other than the html5 spice console (still beta/in development) for windows users ATM. This will also only work with Internet Explorer. Basic Steps: - Install an oVirt server. - Add at least one node - Setup storage/iso/export domains Advanced steps - Start by downloading: http://elmarco.fedorapeople.org/spice.cab - Create a directory for it oVirt looks by default in /usr/share/spice - Rename spice.cab to SpiceX.cab and copy it into /usr/share/spice - Now edit /usr/share/ovirt-engine/engine.ear/root.war/WEB-INF and add the following: <!-- SpiceX.cab --> <servlet> <servlet-name>SpiceX.cab</servlet-name> <servlet-class>org.ovirt.engine.core.FileServlet</servlet-class> <init-param> <param-name>type</param-name> <param-value>application/octet-stream</param-value> </init-param> <init-param> <param-name>file</param-name> <param-value>/usr/share/spice/SpiceX.cab</param-value> </init-param> </servlet> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>SpiceX.cab</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/spice/SpiceX.cab</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> - Next create an html file within /usr/share/ovirt-engine/engine.ear/root.war - In the example below an html file called "spice.html" - Copy/Paste the below into spice.html: <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>SPICE Plugin Installer</title> <script type="text/javascript"> function installSpice() { try { document.getElementById('SpiceX').innerHTML = '<OBJECT id="SpiceX" codebase="/spice/SpiceX.cab" classid="clsid:ACD6D89C-938D-49B4-8E81-DDBD13F4B48A" width="0" height="0"></OBJECT>'; } catch (ex) { alert("Epic Fail!: " + ex.Description); } } </script> </head> <body> <p> <p><b id='SpiceX'>Spice ActiveX Plugin</b> </p> <button onclick='installSpice()'>Install Spice Plugin</button> </p> </body> </html> - Save the file - You will now need to restart the ovirt-engine service EG: systemctl restart ovirt-engine.service OR service ovirt-engine restart - The installer page will now be available at http://<url to ovirt server>/spice.html EX: http://ovirt.azeroth.net/spice.html - Navigate to that page and click the install button - IE will prompt you to deploy/install the SpiceX cabinet file - It may gripe about an unsigned or untrusted source, acknowledge this an proceed anyways - If the install succeeds the text "Spice ActiveX Plugin" on the page will change to blank (it's actually the plugin with null values) - The console button in the user and webadmin portals will now launch the new virt-viwer spice based console! Happy Spice Consoling to your VM's from Windows! *NOTE* To uninstall the plugin: - The below removes the add-on from IE (EG: removes knowledge of "application/x-spice") - pop a command terminal and type: On Windows XP: regsvr32 /u "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Application Data\virt-viewer\bin\SpiceX.dll" On Windows 7 regsvr32 /u C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\AppData\virt-viewer\bin\SpiceX.dll" - Next we need to remove the rest of virt-viewer - Go to add/remove programs and uninstall virt-viewer, this removes the rest of virt-viewer from the system _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org<mailto:Users@ovirt.org> <mailto:Users@ovirt.org<mailto:Users@ovirt.org>> http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org<mailto:Users@ovirt.org> <mailto:Users@ovirt.org<mailto:Users@ovirt.org>> http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users -- Cheers Douglas _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org<mailto:Users@ovirt.org> <mailto:Users@ovirt.org<mailto:Users@ovirt.org>> http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users -- Thanks Robert Middleswarth @rmiddle (twitter/Freenode IRC) @RobertM (OFTC IRC) _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org<mailto:Users@ovirt.org> <mailto:Users@ovirt.org<mailto:Users@ovirt.org>> http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org<mailto:Users@ovirt.org> <mailto:Users@ovirt.org<mailto:Users@ovirt.org>> http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users Med Vänliga Hälsningar ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Karli Sjöberg Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences Box 7079 (Visiting Address Kronåsvägen 8) S-750 07 Uppsala, Sweden Phone: +46-(0)18-67 15 66<tel:%2B46-%280%2918-67%2015%2066> karli.sjob...@slu.se<mailto:karli.sjob...@slu.se> <mailto:karli.sjob...@adm.slu.se<mailto:karli.sjob...@adm.slu.se>> _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org<mailto:Users@ovirt.org> http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users Med Vänliga Hälsningar ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Karli Sjöberg Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences Box 7079 (Visiting Address Kronåsvägen 8) S-750 07 Uppsala, Sweden Phone: +46-(0)18-67 15 66 karli.sjob...@slu.se<mailto:karli.sjob...@adm.slu.se>
