Xen Orchestra Lite

redy

Hi, @olivierlambert
Looks like lite version is perfect for start but looks like something is missing here?

where are the logs from webserver to troubleshoot this issue?

olivierlambert

Please force refresh (Ctrl + F5)

edit: it's also possible your pool doesn't have a name

redy

@olivierlambert
It's a fresh installation, one host only mgmt network configured during installation.
Looks like only dashboard loading as expected.

Host dashboard not working as well

My config:
I've tried on Firefox(104.0) and Chrome(104.0) my OS Linux
XCP-ng release 8.2.1 (xenenterprise) - no internet access
Storage is NOT configured yet

olivierlambert

If you have no VM and the host doesn't have a pool name, then you have everything loaded

@olivierlambert
How to start setup infrastructure (assume it was the main reason to develop lite) if there is nothing available at start?

olivierlambert

Because it's a first alpha release and not a v1.0?

@olivierlambert
Got some output from chrome:

Audit usage of navigator.userAgent, navigator.appVersion, and navigator.platform

A page or script is accessing at least one of navigator.userAgent, navigator.appVersion, and navigator.platform. Starting in Chrome 101, the amount of information available in the User Agent string will be reduced.
To fix this issue, replace the usage of navigator.userAgent, navigator.appVersion, and navigator.platform with feature detection, progressive enhancement, or migrate to navigator.userAgentData.
Note that for performance reasons, only the first access to one of the properties is shown.

index.cb584bcd.js:1

But got the answer already "first Alpha"
Good practice is to add comment to content f.ex. "Network - Not ready yet" or something similar to prevent stupid questions like mine

High level overview feedback:
So a bit of feedback from me too.

The layout looks great!
I believe it has just enough to get one started with using the hypervisor (taking into account the existing labels and the placeholder buttons) or to help you in a pinch.

Current issue found that I assume should work at this time based on other messages is that the console seems to have been implemented but is not working. Chrome inspector console shows: WebSocket connection to 'wss://<my local ip address>/console?uuid=e4cd9c61-d399-a3fa-33f7-5699c920d523&session_id=OpaqueRef%3A927fa4fe-74c2-456a-bfd8-d84e98c3bf42' failed. After that there is a line with "Failed when connecting: Connection closed (code: 1006)".

The interface looks very clean and oriented on functionality. Congratulations and keep up the good work!

olivierlambert

What version of XCP-ng are you using @bogdantomasciuc ? The console should work on 8.2.1

pdonias

@bogdantomasciuc This is probably due to the browser rejecting self-signed SSL certificates when it tries to connect to the console (the console connections go directly to the slave hosts instead of going through the master). To fix that, go to each of your slave hosts' landing pages with HTTPS (https://<slave host IP>/). The browser should ask you if you want to accept self-signed certificates. Click on Accept. Once you've done that for all your hosts, go back to XO Lite, refresh and the consoles should work.

In the next releases, XO Lite will be able to detect when the self-signed certificates haven't been accepted and give clear instructions on what to do

pdonias

@redy Thanks for the feedback, we've added a "coming soon" message on pages that aren't implemented yet, to avoid confusion.

bogdantomasciuc

@olivierlambert I am currently on 8.2. I will upgrade and try later. Thank you!
@pdonias The certificates are already accepted. I will check back after I update to 8.2.1 as suggested by @olivierlambert but thank you very much for your suggestion!

mjtbrady

The console doesn't work for me either.

XCP-ng is 8.2.1

My workstation is Fedora 36 and I have tried both Firefox and Chrome.

I am connecting to XO-Lite over https so the cert has been accepted.

I am using the navigation panel on the left to navigate down through the pool -> host -> vm and clicking on the vm. There is no response at all. The main window where I assume the console is supposed to be remains blank.

Also the link to change the theme that was towards the top left has disappeared so I am stuck in dark mode.

olivierlambert

The link is on the right now (moon/sun for dark/light theme).

pdonias

@mjtbrady Could you open your browser console (F12 > Console tab) and check if there's an error message when you open a VM console?

mjtbrady

@pdonias

Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at wss://10.42.27.25/console?ref=OpaqueRef%3A96c12e00-b160-48c1-8c44-bc06be4af8af&session_id=OpaqueRef%3A5be27bec-a910-4ee6-8beb-f6951a7d7ccc. index.e1f7b30e.js:60:128685

@olivierlambert

I took that to be an icon associated with the logout. I think that the theme and logout either need to both be text or both be icons or more obviously be separate buttons. Or maybe it is just me.

pdonias

@mjtbrady Did you accept the self-signed certificates by navigating to https://10.42.27.25/ and clicking on Accept? It's important to accept them for all the slave hosts, not only for the master host.

mjtbrady

@pdonias

That was the problem, but I do not think that it should be.

I am browsing to XO Lite using the FQDN of the XCP-ng host and the certificate had been accepted for that. But the console connection being made by XO Lite is to the XCP-ng host IP address.

olivierlambert

Yes, Xen API (XAPI) is returning IP addresses only.
