Help with Virt-viewer connection

[barrydocks]

Hi there,

I have a windows 10 guest and can connect by downloading the virt-viewer file from the Proxmox web GUI but this expires after a certain amount of time. How do i make a permanent connection? what is the uri I need to use in virt-viewer?

Thanks

Hi,
please have a look at the bash script provided here https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/SPICE#Can.27t_start_Spice_session

What does it do?

What does it do?

It gets a new ticket and starts the connection. Each connection will have its own ephemeral ticket which times out, so that you need a new ticket. The script generates exactly this.

So do I need to run this script every time I want to connect?

Yes, the script facilitates the process of connecting via SPICE by generating the ticket for a new session.

Is it not possible to just put the appropriate URL in to the virt-viewer and connect on the fly without having to generate a ticket?

No, there is a auth-wall in front of it.
