qemu + spice doesn't work without IPv4

[Raizo62]

Hi

If we have not IP address, we can not start qemu VM with spice access :

getaddrinfo(0.0.0.0,5900): Address family for hostname not supported

On this link : bugs.launchpad, they suggest to use "::1"

Can you configure GNS3 to use "::1" instead "0.0.0.0" (if you detect IPv6 for example) ?

What is your host binding and did you set "Allow console connections to any local IP address" in the preferences?

[Raizo62]

Yes, "Allow console connections to any local IP address" is enabled.
But, if i disabled it, i have always the error message.

Ok, what is your host binding setting?

[Raizo62]

Host binding : 127.0.0.1

Please, can you start python3 on the command line and type the following lines?

import socket
socket.getaddrinfo("0.0.0.0", 0, proto=socket.IPPROTO_TCP)

Let me know what you see after.

Thanks.

Do you have the same issue when using the VNC console?

[grossmj]

I have fixed the Qemu + SPICE issue with GNS3/gns3-server@3a1ba8f

Do you have the same issue when using the VNC console?

No. I think that it a bug in the lib of spice, not in GNS3.

I have fixed the Qemu + SPICE issue with GNS3/gns3-server@3a1ba8f

I will test
