vnc issue

Post by bulczas » Sat Oct 30, 2021 10:33 pm

I can't run either image (qcow2) with VNC console selected, even icon is not changing from "stop" to "play"
I did a try on 2 separate instances...

it's not an issue, I deployed EVE VM on other host, did reboots multiple times. When VNC is selected it's not even blinking from stop (square) to play (triangle). When I change to Telnet i seems vm is starting but stopping in a while. I need VNC at least for a first run.
are there any logs I could check live when starting vm-node?
It's not only applies to one vm, I did a check at least with 2 (F5 and NX-OS)

so in summary, same behaviour on 2 separate instances...

Obviously you doing something wrong, but recognize your issue is impossible from reports you telling here
if the node is not stopping on the screen, menas EVE system services are screwed, and you cannot stop it.

it is possible nodes stop from cli:

Code: Select all

/opt/unetlab/wrappers/unl_wrapper -a stopall
and after you need do
apt update
apt upgrade
reboot

ok, it seems problem solved.
EVE didn't recognize properly my host, in PVE it must be set to "host"
Now it's working fine.
