External VNC console on Proxmox 7

[eroux]

Hi all,

I have attempted setting up an external VNC console for a VM using the instructions on the Wiki. This send to be either out of date of net relevant for PVE7:

root@lair-pve01:/home/eroux# qm monitor 102
Entering Qemu Monitor for VM 102 - type 'help' for help
qm> change vnc 0.0.0.0:100
Expected 'password' after 'vnc'
qm> change vnc password 0.0.0.0:100
terminal does not support password prompting
qm> change vnc password 0.0.0.0:100,password
terminal does not support password prompting
qm>
root@lair-pve01:/home/eroux#

This gives the same result using `qm monitor` or the monitor option in the Web GUI.

Adding the passwords using `set_password vnc ...`, before or after, also makes no difference.

Any advice and/or direction would be greatly appreciated.

hi,

there was a regression in upstream qemu, a fix is on the way, the wiki page will be updated accordingly once it's in.
