Looking at my console.rdp file (attached), it does not appear to have valid content. Nowhere does it specify an IP address or valid hostname to connect to so I don't see how it could possibly work. It has:
full address:s:W2k8-build
but that is simply the name I assigned to the VM in the oVirt admin GUI, not an actual hostname. The address is assigned via DHCP so no hostname would work anyway. Since I can't get a console I can't determine what that address is, either :) (no guest agent running).

I only get a console.rdp file for my Windows 2008 VM. For my newly-imported Fedora 20 VM I get a console.vv which works fine.

Any clues? Why console.rdp instead of console.vv, and how is that supposed to be used to connect to the VM?

Note console for both VMs are configured as "Spice".

Thanks,

Hi,

I have a newly-imported VM in a new Self-Hosted deployment.

In my old configuration, I used to get a console.vv file upon powering up the VM, and virt-viewer could open it w/o issues.

Now, I am getting a console.rdp file, and neither virt-viewer nor remote-viewer seem happy with it. virt-viewer gives me:

Cannot find guest domain /var/tmp/console-9.rdp

I am simply using the oVirt web ui to try to launch the console (e.g. MIME).

Does anyone know what could cause this?

I believe I now am using websocket-proxy for the first time (default hosted-engine configuration). Could that be causing issues?

In my web searching I found a mention about opening up port 3128, so I did that on desktop, engine, and host, but it had no effect.

Thanks,
   Bob
