Re: Userquestion - remote-viewer connection fails with "Connection type could not be determined by URI"

Hi Frediano, Hi List,

after I was able to start the virtual machine with the GUI I tried your command

LANG=C remote-viewer spice://192.168.178.51:5900

and it started right up into the virtual machine.

HOWEVER

even

remote-viewer spice://192.168.178.51:5900

now opens the virtual machine - without problems. (Yeah - i am stunned myself)

I slept over it then tried again today - thinking it never worked again the day after...

Result is that I am able to open up the VM just fine....

This is the worst - something works without changing anything so I have no chance of knowing what the problem is/was in the first place

At a loss for words,

Stefan

I will try to open it today at noon - during my lunch break.
(ATM I am glad it works because i gotta work from home and this windows-machine is the only way to connect to the Server in my company for me)

I will get back to you in approximately two hours.

That's pretty weird. That code has been there for ages. I tried but no
problems for me.
This operating system and version are you using?
Which shell?
Maybe it's the locale? Try launching something like "LANG=C
remote-viewer spice://192.168.178.51:5900" (LANG environment change)
