Hi,
I am experiencing a strange problem. I use mainly spice console to access vms. I have a proxmox 7.4 and two 8.1.
I have tried with firefox, chrome and chromium. I am on Ubuntu.
With proxmox 7.4 I click on spice, it downloads the .yy file and it runs the spice clients.
With both proxmox 8.1 I click on spice, it downloads the .yy file, but the file disappears and I cannot run the spice client.
I do not understand if it is an Ubuntu "feature" that deletes suspect files but with proxmox 7.4 it works.
I am getting crazy, can you help me?
Thanks,
Mario
 
I have just updated to 8.2 and problem is the same.
I click on "console->spice" and I get "impossible to connect to graphic server "/home/myuser/Download/xxxxxx"
