[jira] [Commented] (CLOUDSTACK-410) KVM:Ubuntu:vnc_listen not configured in qemu.conf for Ubuntu KVM host(unable to view the console)

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-410?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13768177#comment-13768177 ] 

Wido den Hollander commented on CLOUDSTACK-410:
-----------------------------------------------

libvirt-java 0.5.0 was released. I can now fix this in the kvm-vnc-listen branch so that we can bind on the private IP address of the hypervisor.

> The vnc_listen configuration in /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf is left at the default (commented out) for Ubuntu KVM hosts. The VNC console for VMs will listen on the default of 127.0.0.1:59XX and will not be accessible to the Console Proxy VM. I noticed this when using the CloudStack-non-OSS-4.0.0-24 build.
> To reproduce:
> 1. Install Ubuntu 12.04.1 Server, install updates.
> 2. Install CloudStack agent on host (run install.sh with "A" option).
> 3. Add the host to CloudStack.
> 4. Launch a VM on the Ubuntu host and try to access the console. The error will be:
> Unable to start console session as connection is refused by the machine you are accessing
> 5. Check "netstat -plnt" on the KVM host to see the VNC session on 127.0.0.1:59XX.
