Hi
I have Windows VM with Spice remote and working fine.
once i set another VM to use Spice , it's fail to start with error

kvm: warning: Spice: reds.c:2655:reds_init_socket: binding socket to 127.0.0.1:61000 failed
kvm: warning: Spice: reds.c:3516:do_spice_init: Failed to open SPICE sockets
kvm: failed to initialize spice server
TASK ERROR: start failed: QEMU exited with code 1

I tried this command, VM start but spice request password that i don't know !
qm set <vmid> -args '-spice tls-port=61000,addr=::1,tls-ciphers=HIGH,seamless-migration=on'

Thank you for the output!

What version of the virt-viewer you are using virt-viewer -V?

args: -spice tls-port=61000,addr=::1,tls-ciphers=HIGH,seamless-migration=on
Does it work if you get rid of spice args from the VM config?
 
Hi,
virt-viewer.exe version 11.0-256

spice args changed because i can start the VM but i dont know what the password it's requested or how to reset ?!

Thank you, I resolve it :)

firest i checked lisining port for working machine
Code:
root@pve2:~# netstat -tnlp | grep :61
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:61000         0.0.0.0:*

so i changed the arg command to :
qm set <vmid> -args '-spice tls-port=61001,addr=127.0.0.1,seamless-migration=on'
and now working perfect
