Last modified: 2017-02-06 10:16:58 EST
Created attachment 643469 [details] remote-viewer --spice-debug Description of problem: After guest system shut down is initiated from remote-viewer, the window isn't closed automatically and an error message "Unable to connect to the graphic server" appears. The guest system shuts down and remote-viewer disconnects successfully however (see remote-viewer log attached). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): virt-viewer-0.5.2-16.el6.x86_64 spice-gtk-0.14-4.el6.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. connect to a running VM using remote-viewer 2. initiate guest system shut down from inside the remote-viewer 3. keep the remote-viewer window open until the guest system shuts down Actual results: An error message "Unable to connect to the graphic server" appears and the remote-viewer window isn't closed. Expected results: The remote-viewer window is closed without an error. Additional info:
we should fix that one, it looks like an error when it is not, and the fix shouldn't be too complicated hopefully. should we devel_ack that one?
taking a look
