RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
I installed a Windows 2003 Enterprise Server on RHEV-M 3.3 and installed the tools-ISO on the guest, without issue. When I tried to install the qxl-win-0.1-21 (Downloaded the qxl_xp_x86.zip on the VM), the install stopped and displayed an error about being the wrong platform.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEV-M 3.3 (is26)
Windows 2003 Enterprise Server

On the http://www.redhat.com/resourcelibrary/articles/enterprise-linux-virtualization-support web page, it says that the guest is optimized and clearly it is not.

Bill, Hi,

 Which version of windows server 2003 did you use? enterprise/not, which service pack installed? not sure it matters but downloading is a hassle. Thanks,

Alon

Alon, I used Windows Server 2003 Enterprise x64 Edition.

As a FYI:

The Windows Server 2008 QXL Driver will work nicely in Windows Server 2003 R2.
