ovirt-engine-cli isn't automatically updated when ovirt-engine is updated
Last modified: 2015-11-27 02:56:18 EST
Description of problem: ovirt-shell can't connect to console on Fedora 22 because 'spice-client' doesn't seem to be available any more and 'remote-viewer' support doesn't work. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): [oVirt shell (connected)]# info backend version: 3.6 sdk version : 3.6.*c.16 cli version : 3.5.0.6 python version : 2.7.10.final.0 entry point : https://localhost.localdomain/ovirt-engine/api installed from http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/yum-repo/ovirt-release36.rpm How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create running vm with spice console 2. Run ovirt shell: ovirt-shell -A ca.crt -l https://localhost.localdomain/ovirt-engine/api -u admin@internal 3. Enter command 'console <vm name>' Actual results: =================================================== UNKNOWN ERROR ================================================= spice viewer was not found, please install spice first. =================================================================================================================== Expected results: remove-viewer is executed Additional info: according to cli version (3.5.0.6) and that $ grep remote-viewer /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ovirtcli/platform/posix/spice.py output nothing despite of https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/29964/3/src/ovirtcli/platform/posix/spice.py it is probably packaging issue.
Flagging as infra for initial research, feel free to move it if it's wrongly assigned.
According to the description of the bug you used version 3.5.0.6: cli version: 3.5.0.6 The capability to use the "remote-viewer" was added in 3.6. Please repeat your test with version 3.6.0.0-0.4 or newer. This version is available in the 3.6 repository. For example, for EL7: http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-3.6-pre/rpm/el7/noarch/ovirt-engine-cli-3.6.0.0-0.4.20150721.gitd43af33.el7.centos.noarch.rpm If you already had the CLI installed it won't be automatically updated when the engine is updated, because the engine .spec doesn't require a newer version. We may change that, although it is kind of an abuse of the dependencies mechanism: packaging: Require version 3.6 of the CLI https://gerrit.ovirt.org/44945 You can instead just update the CLI explicitly: # yum update ovirt-engine-cli
$ rpm -qR rhevm | grep rhevm-cli rhevm-cli >= 3.6.0.0 While upgrade: 13:03:50 [ INFO ] Yum Download/Verify: rhevm-cli-3.6.0.0-1.el6ev.noarch
Since oVirt 3.6.0 has been released, moving from verified to closed current release.
