Description Nelson Chan 2014-09-24 05:41:12 UTC 
Description of problem:

I have created a script to set http proxy system-wide:

#####
[nelson@nelson-pc ~]$ cat /etc/profile.d/http_proxy.sh 
export http_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:3128
#####


After that if i start virt-manager (with http_proxy being set)
And when i open a kvm guest on localhost, virt-viewer will not show the spice viewer. Error message is as follows

#####
Error: viewer connection to hypervisor host got refused or disconnected!
#####


However if i start a terminal,  unset http_proxy, and then start virt-manager from command, the error does not happen.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
virt-manager-common-1.1.0-2.git30db9ece2.fc20.noarch
virt-viewer-0.6.0-1.fc20.x86_64


How reproducible:

Steps to Reproduce:
1. set http_proxy environment variable
2. start virt-manager and open a kvm guest (spice) locally
3. virt-viewer is opened

Actual results:
virt-viewer shows the error message. As shown in attached screenshot

Expected results:
virt-viewer display guest screen normally

Thanks for the report, but I can't reproduce. Can you provide:

- virt-manager --debug output when reproducing
- sudo virsh dumpxml $vmname for a VM that triggers this issue
