Description Jan Krocil 2015-06-04 08:40:51 UTC
Description of problem:
This is a BZ specific to IE8 and IE9.
These two browsers do not have native websockets support and depend on the flash fallback which is not working properly.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
5.4.0.2

How reproducible:
Always (tested with vSphere 5.5/6.0)

Steps to Reproduce:
Try to access a VM using the HTML5 console with adobe flash installed.

Actual results:
Status bar remains stuck with the following message:
"noVNC ready: WebSockets emulation, canvas rendering"

Expected results:
HTML5 console works.

Comment 3 Dave Johnson 2015-06-04 15:21:01 UTC
Martin, can you provide more detail with what is going on here please.  It sounds like IE8 is unsupported with no websocket support and there is potentially a build problem with IE9 related to compiled assests?

Comment 4 Dave Johnson 2015-06-04 15:21:45 UTC
If that is true, we probably need to change the title and potentially split the BZ into a second one.

Comment 5 Jan Krocil 2015-06-04 15:31:22 UTC
Dave,
neither IE8 or IE9 supports websockets; the issue (assets or whatever it is) is the same for both.

Comment 6 Martin Povolny 2015-06-05 06:31:06 UTC
The problem is that some assets are missing is the appliance. Those are the javascript and swf bits that provide the websocket implementation for browsers that do not have the native websocket support.

I will investigate what happened. Basically 2 reasons come to my mind:

a) some problem caused when building the appliance
b) some problem with the gem that contains the assets

    IE9 HTML5/websocket fix

Comment 8 Ramesh A 2015-11-20 11:20:42 UTC
Hi Martin,

I am able to see html5 console in IE9 only when i stop the firewalld service in the appliance.  If the firewalld service is running then i get "Server disconnected (code: 1006)" error in web-ui. (Probably Needs a new bug to be opened for this I guess)

Additionally:
=============
1. When firewalld service is ON/OFF error message is displayed in production.log message as shown below.
2. Cursor is not visible inside the vm,  and Warning message is displayed in the developer tools.  Refer the screenshot for further information. 
(Not sure if new bug has to be raised for this or can be fixed in the same BZ, please advice??)
