virt-viewer windows port

[anuj rampal]

Hi all,

I have build virt-viewer-0.2.0 for windows.

now when I tried to run that "virt-viewer.exe" for the 1st time.

it gave me this error:

(virt-viewer.exe:8464): Pango-WARNING **:
`Z:\usr\i686-pc-mingw32\sys-root\mingw
\lib\pango\1.6.0\modules\pango-basic-win32.dll': The specified module could
not
be found.

To solve this I had to rename one of my Disk to Z and the copied the
pango-basic-win32.dll at the specified path.

now it didnt give me any error.

But what happens now is:

1. virt-viewer.exe -c qemu+tcp://192.168.1.106/session 1 ; where
192.168.1.106 is the ip address of my machine where qemu is running and 1 is
the id of the VM.

2. A blank screen opens up with "virt-viewer.exe" written on its top and
then that program does not responds.

Could someone please help me out with this.

Thanks in advance

Regards
Anuj

How did you compile it?  Did you cross-compile it from Fedora or build
it using some other means?  How did you build libvirt / where did you
get libvirt from?

Try also running virt-viewer in verbose mode (with -v option).

yes i cross compiled it from FC11 using mingw.
i have also build libvirt-0.6.2 on the same machine using mingw and it works
fine..... i can call all the function of libvirt from my Vista machine.

but virt-viewer is not working...

also this only happens when i try to connect using tcp.
with ssh and tls it just says could not connect....??

You say above that libvirt "works", but I want you to try it in a
controlled environment.  First off, try some simple virsh commands:

  virsh list
  virsh -c ... list

(with various connection strings).

Second, set the LIBVIRT_DEBUG environment variable to 1 (I have no
idea how you do that in Windows).  Then repeat the above commands.

Thirdly, try (with LIBVIRT_DEBUG=1):

  virt-viewer -v -c ... host

Hi,

You say above that libvirt "works",

Yes, libvirt works.

By this I mean that I have sucessfully build the libvirt-0.7.0 for windows
using mingw.
So now i have libvirt-0.dll and virsh.exe.
Using this dll I can connect to the libvirtd server and call functions
successfully.

but I want you to try it in a
controlled environment.  First off, try some simple virsh commands:

 virsh list
 virsh -c ... list

(with various connection strings).

Even virsh.exe also works fine when connect to TCP connection. and i can
call the functions without any issues.

But with TLS there was some certificate issue but after resolving this
issue, im still not able to connect to the libvirt
this is what it says:

> virsh.exe -c qemu://FC11-KVM/session 
error: unable to connect to
libvirtd at 'FC11-KVM': errno=22
error: failed to connect to the hypervisor

this is what it says...???? (this is from my vista machine)

from a different linux machine this works fine... (same uri = virsh -c
qemu://FC11-KVM/session)

Other connect strings are not supported on windows (unix, ssh, ext)

> virsh.exe -c qemu+ssh://FC11-KVM/session 
error: invalid argument
in transport methods unix, ssh and ext are not
supported
 under Windows
error: failed to connect to the hypervisor

this is what it says.

Second, set the LIBVIRT_DEBUG environment variable to 1 (I have no
idea how you do that in Windows).  Then repeat the above commands.

And i dont have to change any configuration on windows because i only have
dll and exe thats all....

every this has to be changed on the libvirt server(linux machine where
libvirtd is running).

virt-viewer -v -c ... host

i tried using different connection string on my vista machine

virt-viewer -c qemu+tcp://FC11-KVM/session gets connected. but hangs and
nothing happens.

virt-viewer -v -c qemu://FC11-KVM/session (i.e. tls)
gives error:
unable to connect to libvirt qemu://FC11-KVM/session

Hi,

Yes 1 more thing that i wanted to add:

when i tried these commands on a linux machine and tried to connect to
libvirtd running on a different remote machine:

virt-viewer -c qemu+tcp://FC11-KVM/session 1

and

virt-viewer -c qemu://FC11-KVM/session 1

nothing happens and it doesnot give any error also.

but works fine when i tried

virt-viewer -c qemu+ssh://FC11-KVM/session 1

the console opens up and i can see view the guest machine.

Anuj

Apparently "errno 22" is EINVAL.

That doesn't help much.  I really need you to set the LIBVIRT_DEBUG
environment variable to 1 on order to show the full messages, and then
continue with the tests as outlined in the previous email.

So the problem is that as you can see from reading the messages, it
can't load the client key file (from
/usr/i686-pc-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/etc/pki/libvirt/private/clientkey.pem).

This path is compiled into libvirt, so the only way to change it is to
recompile libvirt with sysconfdir set to a more suitable path:

  ./configure --sysconfdir=/etc

for example (and create /etc/pki ... on Windows).

This worked, obviously because it's not using GnuTLS for encryption.

On windows
virt-viewer take these from certificates for
"Z:\usr\i686-pc-mingw32\sys-root\mingw\etc\pki" which i guess is hardcoded
in the code...(dont know y)
i tried "./configure --sysconfdir=C:\pki\"
but this didnot work...

the certificates that i user here have to be correct because.. these
certificates are the same when i connect from a different linux machine
there i dont get the ERROR message. but still nothing happens.

These are the results when i tried running virt-viewer using the following
URI:


1.
LIBVIRT_DEBUG=1 virt-viewer -c qemu://FC11-KVM/session 2

 result:
here i dont think there is an issue with the certificates:
what happens here is a small window pops up with the message "Conneting to
vnc server" thats it and then the message goes.

When i tried these same commands on the same machine where the libvirtd is
running:

it works fine. with
qemu+tcp:///session 2

qemu:///session 2

i also tried to debug the virt-viewer-0.2.0 code.

the only thing that i could find out was that in src/main.c in function int
main(.....)

line 97 : gtk_main();

after reaching this line

1. On the same machine the code hangs and the vnc display is shown and i can
view my guest machine.

2. On the remote machine it doesnot stops here and comes out with the
message on the popup saying connecting to vnc server.


------------------------

On windows im still facing the problem with certificates because the same
certificates works on remote linux machine.

but using "qemu+tcp://FC11-KVM/session 2"... atlease a new window pops up
which does not respond...

Do we have to do any configuration on libvirtd to make virt-viewer to work
over tcp and tls because it works fine from a remote linux machine over ssh.

------------------------

has any1 have got any success running virt-viewer on windows...??

Anuj

When you say this "did not work", how did it fail?  The clue is
usually in the error message.

In any case, you almost certainly can't just write C:\pki\ because \
is an escape character.  Maybe you can double them, or use forward
slashes instead.

It's really not helpful to use virt-viewer to test.  Test using a
simple tool like virsh.  Get that working first.  Once you understand
what the problem was, *only then* try virt-viewer.

You can also disable encryption in libvirtd:

  http://libvirt.org/remote.html#Remote_libvirtd_configuration

or read the libvirtd.conf file.

When you say this "did not work", how did it fail?  The clue is
usually in the error message.

when i did --sysconfdir="C:\pki\" I expected that i have keep my
certificates under this directory(correct me if i'm wrong).
But it was still taking the certificates from
"Z:\usr\i686-pc-mingw\sys-confic\mingw\etc\pki" (in Windows).

--------------------------

Regarding virsh:

*virsh on linux mahine:*

URI tried from a remote linux mahine:

virsh -c qemu+tcp://FC11-KVM/session

virsh -c qemu://FC11-KVM/session

virsh -c qemu+ssh://FC11-KVM/session

virsh -c qemu+unix://FC11-KVM/session

all of these work fine
*
virsh on windows:*

on windows the supported URIs are:

virsh.exe -c qemu+tcp://FC11-KVM/session

virsh.exe -c qemu://FC11-KVM/session


URI "qemu+tcp://FC11-KVM/session" works fine. It gets connected and i can
call all the functions.
I have also written a small code on C#.net and i use this URI
(qemu+tcp://FC11-KVM/session) to connect to libvirt and call the functions
and it works fine without any problem.

Now the problem again comes with URI : virsh.exe -c qemu://FC11-KVM/session

when i rum me code using the above URI
this is what the error message that it gives:
Cannot access CA certificate
'/usr/i686-pc-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/etc/pki/CA/cacert.pem' : errno=2

So basically i need to change the the path it is looking in.....

Hi,

But what were the messages in the configure step?


As i said that virt-viewer takes the certificates from
"Z:\usr\i686-pc-mingw32\sys-root\mingw\etc\pki..." path in windows.

This is what i tried:

1. when I do not keep the certificates on this path. This is the result that
I get.

URI: virt-viewer.exe -c qemu://FC11-KVM/session 1

This is the result:

Hi,

What's with the colours? Why are you making it harder to understand what was
said by who?

It would also be really useful if you kept the attribution lines, so we
could all see who had said what, when.

What Richard is asking you for is the output of the ./configure command.

What he hasn't asked, yet, is how porting libvirt and the virt-* utilis
helps you.

What is the actual end goal here? A "just for fun" experiment, in which case
you are probably better served by answers to your questions which lead you
to do the deeper debugging. Or a school project, in which case the same
applies.

Thanks,
Anand

I had to call the libvirt functions from my windows machine and this could
only be done by porting libvirt to windows(as a client).. i have done that
sucessfully and now I can call all the functions from my windows machine...

Now what happens is that after I create a new Guest OS using my code(from
windows), I have to logon into my server machine and then continue
installing the Guest. This is where i thought of porting virt-viewer to
windows so that i can do it from the same remote windows machine.

The only problem that im facing right now is with the virt-viewer. If this
issues is resolved, we are thinking of intergate libvirt with one of our
product.

Hi,

I think there is some problem the windows port of virt-viewer or i guess i
have done something wrong.

I have made the Guest OS display on my Windows Machine but its not through
virt-viewer it just by using vnc.

As i was able to connect from a remote linux machine using virt-viewer. I
figured out that it connects to the libvirtd first and the connects to the
display port of the Guest OS.

Now when i was trying to connect from my windows machine, what was happening
was it was connecting to libvirtd and the hungs up and doesnot connect to
the display port of the Guest OS.

So i tried to directly connect to the display port of that Guest OS from my
Windows machine and i was able to see my Guest OS.

I dont know why virt-viewer is not working properly because internally it
also uses GTK-VNC only...????

Thanks & Regards
Anuj
