Cause: setup VM with password protected vnc/spice and save the password for next use Consequence: when user opens VM console and unset "Save this password in your keyring" the password remains saved Fix: code to forget the password was missing so it had to be implemented Result: now if user unset "Save this password in your keyring" the next time when he's asked for password the text field is empty

Description Xiaodai Wang 2016-01-26 07:04:52 UTC 
Description of problem:
The password is not cleared after unchecking "Save this password in your keyring".

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
virt-manager-0.9.0-31.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. launch "virt-manager"
2. Open hardware details and click "display spice" device and Set a password for it.
3. Start the guest.
4. Check the "Save this password in your keyring" option and type the password.
5. Close the vm window and double click the vm to open the vm window again, check the password is remembered.
6. Uncheck the "Save this password in your keyring" option and click login.
7. Close the vm window and double click the vm to open the vm window again.



Actual results:
The password is remembered and the "Save this password in your keyring" option is still checked.

Expected results:
The password should be cleared and the "Save this password in your keyring" option should be unchecked.

Additional info:
1. It's better to only save the password when login success, now it saves every password no matter what the password is.
Comment 5 zhoujunqin 2016-12-05 09:29:21 UTC 
I can reproduce this issue with package:
virt-manager-0.9.0-31.el6.x86_64

Then try to verify with new build:
virt-manager-0.9.0-33.el6.x86_64

Steps:
1. launch "virt-manager"
2. Open hardware details and click "display spice" device and Set a password for it.
3. Start the guest.
4. Check the "Save this password in your keyring" option and type the password.
5. Close the vm window and double click the vm to open the vm window again, check the password is remembered.
6. Uncheck the "Save this password in your keyring" option and click login.
7. Close the vm window and double click the vm to open the vm window again.

Result:
The password is cleared and the "Save this password in your keyring" option is unchecked.
And also repeat step4-7, no error find, so move this bug from ON_QA to VERIFIED.
