Description of problem: After upgrading to RHEV 6.6, it is impossible to use virt-viewer over SSH + Xming combination to view SPICE consoles of VMs. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): RHEL 6.6 Windows 7 PuTTY 0.63 Xming 6.9.0.31 virt-viewer-0.6.0-11.el6.x86_64 virt-viewer-0.5.6-8.el6_5.3.x86_64 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. on a Windows machine, start Xming 2. connect to a RHEL 6.6 machine using PuTTY 3. open firefox, try to open a SPICE console Actual results: virt-viewer window opens and closes right away Expected results: virt-viewer remains open and displays hte VM console Additional info: if running the XPI in debug mode or invoking virt-viewer manually to open a .vv file, this is displayed: [xcb] Extra reply data still left in queue [xcb] This is most likely caused by a broken X extension library [xcb] Aborting, sorry about that. remote-viewer: xcb_io.c:576: _XReply: Assertion `!xcb_xlib_extra_reply_data_left' failed. Aborted The same setup worked with RHEL 6.5 without issues
Hi Evgheni, is it still happening ? I don't think the problem is in virt-viewer. I cannot reproduce it with: Windows 7 as the client RHEL 6.6 as the guest Xming 6.9.0.31 virt-viewer-0.6.0-11.el6.x86_64 spice-gtk-0.22-7.el6.x86_64
Sorry, I cannot keep reproducers for that long. Cannot confirm if it's still there at the moment but half a year ago I was able to reproduce it from the first try. This is probably related to bz#1158613
Just re-tested it. remote-viewer still crashes: [xminguser@test Downloads]$ remote-viewer -v --debug console.vv (remote-viewer:6368): remote-viewer-DEBUG: Insert window 0 0x23ab800 (remote-viewer:6368): remote-viewer-DEBUG: No configuration file /home/xminguser/.config/virt-viewer/settings (remote-viewer:6368): remote-viewer-DEBUG: fullscreen display 0: 0 (remote-viewer:6368): remote-viewer-DEBUG: Opening display to console.vv (remote-viewer:6368): remote-viewer-DEBUG: Guest console.vv has a spice display Guest console.vv has a spice display (remote-viewer:6368): remote-viewer-DEBUG: After open connection callback fd=-1 (remote-viewer:6368): remote-viewer-DEBUG: Opening connection to display at console.vv Opening connection to display at console.vv (remote-viewer:6368): remote-viewer-DEBUG: fullscreen display 0: 0 (remote-viewer:6368): remote-viewer-DEBUG: app is not in full screen (remote-viewer:6368): remote-viewer-DEBUG: New spice channel 0x2454ed0 SpiceMainChannel 0 (remote-viewer:6368): remote-viewer-DEBUG: notebook show status 0x23ba000 (remote-viewer:6368): remote-viewer-DEBUG: main channel: opened (remote-viewer:6368): remote-viewer-DEBUG: notebook show status 0x23ba000 (remote-viewer:6368): remote-viewer-DEBUG: app is not in full screen (remote-viewer:6368): remote-viewer-DEBUG: New spice channel 0x24f0c20 SpiceRecordChannel 0 (remote-viewer:6368): remote-viewer-DEBUG: New spice channel 0x25be000 SpicePlaybackChannel 0 (remote-viewer:6368): remote-viewer-DEBUG: new audio channel (remote-viewer:6368): remote-viewer-DEBUG: New spice channel 0x25ccf10 SpiceCursorChannel 0 (remote-viewer:6368): remote-viewer-DEBUG: New spice channel 0x25cfb40 SpiceDisplayChannel 0 (remote-viewer:6368): remote-viewer-DEBUG: New spice channel 0x25d0fa0 SpiceInputsChannel 0 (remote-viewer:6368): remote-viewer-DEBUG: new inputs channel (remote-viewer:6368): Gtk-WARNING **: Attempting to store changes into `/home/xminguser/.local/share/recently-used.xbel', but failed: Failed to create file '/home/xminguser/.local/share/recently-used.xbel.JMTSUX': No such file or directory (remote-viewer:6368): Gtk-WARNING **: Attempting to set the permissions of `/home/xminguser/.local/share/recently-used.xbel', but failed: No such file or directory (remote-viewer:6368): remote-viewer-DEBUG: creating spice display (#:0) [xcb] Extra reply data still left in queue [xcb] This is most likely caused by a broken X extension library [xcb] Aborting, sorry about that. remote-viewer: xcb_io.c:576: _XReply: Assertion `!xcb_xlib_extra_reply_data_left' failed.

Thanks Evgheni, I was able to reproduce it, seems that it is fixed upstream. Can you try it with virt-viewer-2.0-2.el6.x86_64 ?
Just tested and can confirm there's no more virt-viewer crash on virt-viewer-2.0-2.el6.x86_64
Can reproduce this with Windows 7 PuTTY 0.63 virt-viewer-0.6.0-11.el6.x86_64 Steps: 1. prepare a spice guest on rhevm 2. connect the rhel6 host on win7 machine with putty 3. open firefox and connect rhevm 4. configure the guest on rhevm with "Broswer pluing", and try to open the console Result: virt-viewer window opens and closes right away # cat /var/log/message Mar 13 08:55:21 dc spice: [xcb] Extra reply data still left in queue Mar 13 08:55:21 dc spice: [xcb] This is most likely caused by a broken X extension library Mar 13 08:55:21 dc spice: [xcb] Aborting, sorry about that. Mar 13 08:55:21 dc spice: remote-viewer: xcb_io.c:576: _XReply: Assertion `!xcb_xlib_extra_reply_data_left' failed. Verify with virt-viewer-2.0-2.el6.x86_64 Result: virt-viewer can connect the guest successfully, and no error message for spice. As the result, move to VERIFIED
