SPICE: Failed to open /dev/virtio-ports/org.spice-space.webdav.0

[Carlos34]

Hello,

I've been searching for a solution to my problem but haven't found any clear information or instructions. I noticed that other people have faced a similar issue, but I still haven't found a way to fix it.

Here's my situation:

I'm using Linux (Debian and Kali) as clients with Spice Viewer to connect to another Linux machine running on Oracle VM. I want to share a folder from the host VM (Oracle) to the clients.

Currently, I can connect using Spice, and I can activate the Folder Sharing option in the Spice Window, but I cannot access the folder from the client side.


Here is what I've done so far:

- Enable enhancement "Folder Sharing" in proxmox
- Installed davfs2, spice-webdavd and virt-viewer in client (Kali)

However, when I try to start the service with spice-webdavd.service, I get the following error: spice-webdavd[16376]: Failed to open /dev/virtio-ports/org.spice-space.webdav.0: No such file or directory

I've seen a few posts in other forums discussing similar issues, but they don't quite match my situation.

For example, on this page: SPICE User Manual, they explain how to configure the client to share folders, but I'm not sure how to implement it.

I'd appreciate any help or guidance on how to solve this issue.

Thank you!
