      @Mathieu I do use NGINX Proxy Manager and i have no issues accessing XO-CE via the new v6 default or the old v5 with working links.

      As @probain has stated there have been quite a few updates pushed to fix most issues. My issues were related to the script i used to install XO-CE. The script creator had to update the script to the recent changes made.

      Make sure you are on the latest commit and/or update your script and try again.

        I found the culprit:

        HTTP/2 support needs to be enabled on the SSL tab of npm for v6 to work fine behind the reverse proxy.

        It's now working fine.

            Windows guests Console - Reloads every 5-10s.

            When trying to use the console for both my Windows 11 and Server 2025. The console reloads every 5-10s. This makes it borderline unusable. Since it resets the viewport/window scroll placement as well. Also the console seems to loose focus when this happens as well. Leading to have to click the console-section to get it in focus, to receive I am not seeing this behaviour in XO5 at all.

            I do not see the same behaviour on Linux (Ubuntu 24.04) guests. But they are cli-only. No X/Wayland

            Commit: b89c26459cfd301bb92adf0a98a0b2dbab57e487
            node: 24.12.0
            Management agent 9.1.100-59 on both VMs

            Windows 11 has GPU passthrough & bios
            Windows Server 2025 - no GPU passthrough , uses uefi

              Just updated to latest commit - 8e2d9. Trying to create new VM in xov6 and a few issues to start.

              New vm settings

              • Ubuntu 24.04 template
              • 4 cpu cores
              • 6 gb of ram
              • Ubuntu iso mounted
              • No option to adjust topology for cpu cores.

              VM was created with 1 cpu core no iso disk mounted

                For me it's a bit confusing XO6.
                For example, why are the icons so small and in such far corners, like New VM? It's like you want it to be hidden.
                174bdca5-6545-4f34-b7d4-804718aebd58-image.png

                Isn't it more intuitive if they're at the top/bottom of this menu or in line with title (***-xen01)?

                Another thing is the number of allocated processors. In my opinion it is misleading. It shows the total number of allocated processors even to VMs that are not started.
                It is not better to be something like:
                8 vCPUs running VMs / 4 vCPUs stopped VMs - total number allocated vCPUs 12/ Total CPUs 8.
                And something like 8 - green / 4 -red - 12 orange/ 8 grey

                  Clicking through the different parts in the leftmost pane has (what feels like) inconsistent landing pages. When in reality, it lands on the previous tab visited for that item.

                  Example.
                  If I click on Xen Orchestra Appliance I would expect to land on the Dashboard tab. But if I had previously looked inside the Pools tab, then that is where I would land.

                  This behaviour is the same regardless of which item I click through. Be it Pool/Host/Guest..

                  I'll admit that it kind of makes a little bit of sense in thought. But it feel far more jarring and confusing when navigating. Since you never really know which tab you'll be met with when browsing. As each and every level/item is handled individually, separate from all others.

                    @jr-m4 Seems useful to me for the tabs to be sticky. If you are flipping back and forth between sections to compare or work on something, having it always default to the first tab can be annoying.

                      @dcskinner make it a user préférence, and we get the best of both worlds 😛
