XOA Proxy and Console Access

[hitechhillbilly]

Hello,

Should I be able to see the console of VMs on an XCP-NG install that is accessed via the proxy?

Yes, that's the point of using XO proxies See https://xen-orchestra.com/blog/xo-proxy-a-concrete-guide/

@olivierlambert thats what I thought. I have another proxy in a another server and it works.

Everything looks correct,I can see the host, and every detail about the VMs, I can create VMs, etc, but I can not view the console. The proxy shows as green and happy and in the servers tab the proxy URL is in place. There is not a VPN between these sites so if that was not in place, it would not connect.

What can I check?

I have the same issue. I just chalked it up to being a proxy ~9000km away so thought it was latency related timeout. But if more people are seeing this it might be something else.

[olivierlambert]

Do you have the stats working?

[spelon]

@olivierlambert Yes. Everything but console works, its just empty white space. Same for all VMs, Windows/Linux.

[olivierlambert]

Thanks for the report. We'll take a look, probably worth a Github issue by the way

[hitechhillbilly]

Also, same behavior as mine. I can see stats as well. I will report this on the Github site.

[olivierlambert]

Thanks for your feedback, lads. Do you confirm it worked before, right?

[hitechhillbilly]

@olivierlambert this is my first time using a proxy that is not over a VPN link. I have another that works fine, but there is a VPN link between the server and the proxy.

@julien-f found the issue and had a fix for it (kudos!). If you use XOA on latest channel, expect a patch release later this week. If you are on the sources, it should land on master soon.

@julien-f That fixes it for me. Thanks!

@olivierlambert thank you. I am on the official channels since I pay for premium. I will wait to see the fix this week.
