When opening the graphical console for a running domain, the following error message appears and virt-manager fails to bring up the grapical console: '<hostname>' does not appear to be an IPv4 or IPv6 network With <hostname> being the hostname (including domain) through which I connected to the hypervisor. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open virt-manager 2. Connect to a remote libvirtd with qemu+tls:// 3. Double-click on a running domain to open its graphical console Actual Results: An error message as described above appears, the graphical console window shows "The console is currently unavailable". Expected Results: The domain's virtual framebuffer should be shown in the graphical console window. This appears to be the same problem as reported on the RedHat bugtracker here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1219023 Applying the patch proposed by Giuseppe Scrivano solves the issue for me.
Version 1.2.1 contains bug fixes for a bunch of IPv4/IPv6 related connection problems. Please test 1.2.1 whether it still contains this issue.
> Please test 1.2.1 whether it still contains this issue. The problem no longer occurs with 1.2.1.
