[jira] [Commented] (CLOUDSTACK-410) vnc_listen not configured in qemu.conf for Ubuntu KVM host

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-410?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13483431#comment-13483431 ] 

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

This should not be required anymore, but I think I bumped into this one as well.

I did a commit some time ago which would use the Hypervisor IP for setting the VNC address in the domain XML: https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=incubator-cloudstack.git;a=commitdiff;h=bc94948e0604e0e5931759be3c3d3155e84686f6

I'll look into this, since my commit should make changing vnc_listen in qemu.conf obsolete.

> 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.
