Created attachment 786351 [details] Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library error message Description of problem: Using virt-viewer on a Windows 2008 or Windows 2008 R2 Terminal Server (virtualized with XenServer 6.0 or 6.2) to connect via spice to Windows 7 Pro x64 (virtualized with KVM on Debian Wheezy) crashes after some minutes doing different things (doesn't matter) with always the same error message (see attachment). Doing the same from a local Windows 7 Pro machine no error occurs. Virt-viewer runs stable here. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): virtviewer 0.5.6 and 0.5.7 spice-protocol 0.12.3 spice 0.12.5 kvm 1.4.2 kernel 2.6.32 How reproducible: Simply working some minutes inside virt-viewer spice session (other sessions like vnc not tested, because not needed). Steps to Reproduce: 1. open spice session on Windows 2008 TS 2. click here and there... 3. open some programs like mspaint and draw a picture or write a letter... Actual results: Virt-viewer crashes with a "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library" error message. After confirmation of error Windows 2008 TS closes (or kills) virt-viewer. Expected results: no crash. Additional info: No problem with virt-viewer and spice session an local machines
I can't say I've seen the crash referenced here, but I'd hope after 5 years it has been fixed without us knowing explicitly. The current virt-viewer windows support is much better tested these days. Feel free to reopen or file a new bug if seeing crashes.
