I've tried to connect to my VMs using SPICE.
But getting that thing:

c:\Users\alex\Downloads>"C:\Program Files\VirtViewer\bin\remote-viewer.exe" --debug spiceproxy.vv

pve-manager 3.1-21
pve-qemu-kvm 1.4-17


When I check tcpdump on server I see packets in both directions.
 
When running proxy in debug I see that:

root@kvm1:~# /usr/bin/spiceproxy --debug


685813: ACCEPT FH12 CONN1
685813: CONNECT 106, kvm1, 61000

If you're using PVE spice console, beware that this has a ticket based access system, which expires very soon.
You won't be able to connect permanently using thos .vv files you downloaded.
Their intended use is: open them with spice viewer, not download and store them as a permament way to conenct to vm.

To do that, you must install spice server into your vm (not windows, of course, use rdp for that).

I know that :) You have 30 sec.
If file is expired you will get an error about ticket.

So I was doing download file and connecting immediately.


Thank you for your answer.
 
I am using SPICE from Proxmox UI.
Debug I've made to have some additional info.
In general when I click the SPICE button I am getting error that viwer can not connect to graphical server.

I don't undetsnad how to use that feature from the box?
SPICE is broken in Proxmomx 3.1?
 
well no, afaict, it is working really simply for me, at least from win7x64sp1, virt-viewer 0.5.7 x64.
as for pve:

Non of vms working with SPICE. What I am missing?

I'm sorry but I don't know how to debug...

perhaps you could
- updating pve packages (who knows)
- ask the spice/virt-viewer people... perhaps try to show them logs...
- try a standard physical spice server, and debug connection to that (excluding pve)

I know it's an old thread, but as it does fit best...

I try to connect to spice, but no luck. So far: I've set up Proxmox VE 5.1 new today just as shipped from setup ISO (just in case there was a bug in my test installation). I've set up a Windows 7 professional x64 VM with virtio and switched graphic card to spice. Within Windows VM I can see there is a Red Hat QXL GPU, so I think I got the VM part correct.
But Proxmox does not open a spice console when clicking the default Console link, but opens a noVNC console.
If using the spice console link, I get the ticket downloaded and opened in virt_viewer, but the connection is not established. Debug:

"c:\Program Files\VirtViewer v6.0-256\bin\remote-viewer.exe" --debug UkkQJnWr.vv

(remote-viewer.exe:9244): Gtk-WARNING **: Could not find signal handler 'virt_viewer_window_menu_change_cd_activate'. Did you compile with -rdynamic?

(remote-viewer.exe:9244): virt-viewer-DEBUG: Destroy SPICE channel SpiceMainChannel 0
(remote-viewer.exe:9244): virt-viewer-DEBUG: zap main channel

I can see the attempt to connect in /var/log/pveproxy/access.log, however, I don't ever see a real connection.

Sure I make some mistakes, but...?

Should the Proxmox host be available via spice? In fact, the spice option is available, but here too, no connection is established ("Socket I/O timed out").

I have to admit, that I do not have a valid subscription yet, as I do only use Proxmox in private and as a fun project, but I couldn't find a hint that this would cause spice not to work.
