PVE 3.1 Console not working

[screenie]

Hello,

I'm just testing PVE 3.1 (single node setup) on Debian 7 based on the wiki install guide (http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Install_Proxmox_VE_on_Debian_Wheezy)
So far everything went fine but when i start a newly created w2k8 vm and want to open the console i'm getting this error:

no connection : Connection timed out
TASK ERROR: command '/bin/nc -l -p 5900 -w 10 -c '/usr/sbin/qm vncproxy 400 2>/dev/null'' failed: exit code 1

Any ideas?

thx,
Alex

Hi,
the java-plugin in your browser is enabled and up-to-date? (Which version?)

i do have this quite frequently - if i use a slow client, where the java startup takes a bit longer; in my case, the 2nd try using "reload" in console window then usually succeeds.

What I normally do for the two security boxes that come up is select the checkbox about do not ask again. By this time it times out, but if you click console again, it comes right up.

Thanks for your suggestions - tried latest Java version, refreshing and the checkboxes that i'm not asked again but nothing helped;
I remembered i had also several strange issues a while ago and the solution was to deactivate McAfee - and that was also the solution here :-(
So i just de-installed McAfee and installed Avira and everything is fine now...

Thanks,
Alex
