[workaround] spice-client-error-quark: Could not redirect

I have a problem with redirecting USB devices in virt-manager.

It worked some time ago without any hassle but now when I try to redirect usb printer or any other device I get following error message:

It says I have insufficient permissions but I haven’t changed anything in perms since I installed virt-manager, libvirtd and qemu. I run my guests as nobody:kvm (default config). I’m asked about my user’s password when starting virt-manager.

It looks like some recent (about two weeks period) updated messed up with usb redirection or I’m missing some configuration.

Re: [workaround] spice-client-error-quark: Could not redirect

Running virtual machine as root:root doesn’t help either.

I also checked that /usr/bin/spice-client-glib-usb-acl-helper has suid set (according to some recommendation found on other forums).

Nothing helped so far. I hope it’s not udev/systemd related.

Re: [workaround] spice-client-error-quark: Could not redirect

Seems to be something with the recent spice-gtk3 and spice-glib package.

My workaround was to force remove spice-gtk3 and spice-glib, install spice-glib, remove some of the files that preventend a downgrade and install the old spice-gtk3 package from the pacman cache.

Re: [workaround] spice-client-error-quark: Could not redirect

It works indeed. It’s a bit complicated but thanks to your instructions I managed to make USB redirection work again.

Someone knows if it is a know and reported bug or should we file one somewhere?

Re: [workaround] spice-client-error-quark: Could not redirect

I have faced the same issue — glad, that I’m not the only one. I could «temporarily» fix this issue by starting virt-manager as root via console: sudo virt-manager. I’ve tried several configurations, added my user to kvm and libvirt groups, but nothing helped. Wonder, what’s the problem, cause this used to work without any hassle in the past.

Re: [workaround] spice-client-error-quark: Could not redirect

I had the exact same error, so it’s definitely a bug upstream somewhere. Unfortunately, you’re fix didn’t work for me. After I ran the commands I just got another error:

spice-client-error-quark: Could not redirect Silicon Labs CP2104 USB to UART Bridge Controller [—] at 1-3: Error setting USB device node ACL: ‘Not authorized’ (0)

Re: [workaround] spice-client-error-quark: Could not redirect

@windozupdate: I’ve read on another forum that for ACL errors the following command might help: chmod u+s /usr/bin/spice-client-glib-usb-acl-helper

Re: [workaround] spice-client-error-quark: Could not redirect

Upstream packages are bugged. Issue https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/48829 seems to be related. It has been updated to 0.31 upstream and flagged out-of-date in Arch repo on 21th march. The update should be available soon (and most probably fixes our issues). Also, they have changed **alot** USB related stuff after releasing 0.31, better be prepared to downgrade next time.

Here are PKGBUILD’s for spice-glib, spice-gtk3, and spice-protocol (version 0.31):

Copy the text for each box into a text editor and save them into three separate directories named ‘PKGBUILD’. Then cd into each of those directories in the order 1. spice-protocol 2. spice-glib 3. spice-gtk3, and type ‘makepkg -s’ followed by ‘pacman -U *.xz’.

Re: [workaround] spice-client-error-quark: Could not redirect

Okay, thanks for you detailed explanation. But it doesn’t work with «spice-glib» and I get the «error», that it’s already installed.
After I updated the other packages I get the message in my windows-vm again:

«spice-client-error-quark: Could not redirect Garmin International Device [091e:26e5] at 2-4: Could not open usb device: Access denied (insufficient permissions) [-3] (0)»

What I did was uninstall spice-glib (pacman -R) before installing the newer version. As a consequence this uninstalled virt-manager for me, but I reinstalled virt-manager at the end of the process.

Re: [workaround] spice-client-error-quark: Could not redirect

Disregard my remarks; it looks like spice-glib and spice-gtk3 have finally been updated in the Archlinux repositories.

Okay, I don’t understand it. I just removed virt-manager, spice-glib and spice-gtk3 and did an «pacman -Syu» after it. It updated the system and after I reinstalled virt-manager and the other packages.
But the problem is there anymore .

Re: [workaround] spice-client-error-quark: Could not redirect

Does anyone managed to fix this issue? I have latest spice-gtk3 and spice-glib packages installed (0.31-1) but still can’t redirect USB devices.

#18 2016-04-22 22:35:45

Re: [workaround] spice-client-error-quark: Could not redirect

I’ve the problem also anymore. Is there a solution for it? There where no updates of spice-glib and spice-gtk3 in my Archlinux repositories since the last post of aeden

#19 2016-04-23 08:09:28

Re: [workaround] spice-client-error-quark: Could not redirect

I can confirm that this problem persists.

Alas, it lets me redirect my scanner, but not any type of storage device (which is what i would need the most), but that was the already the case before version 0.31.

USB redirection fails with spice-client-error-quark: . ‘Not authorized’ (0)

Bug Description

This one took me some hours and occurred on Ubuntu GNOME.
After an update USB redirection stopped working using virt-manager with the error message:

spice-client- error-quark: Could not redirect . at . : Error setting USB device node ACL: ‘Not authorized’ (0)

Turns out some missing dependencies caused this one, i.e.:

$ sudo apt-get install gir1.2- spice-client- gtk-2.0 gir1.2- spice-client- glib-2. 0 gir1.2- spice-client- gtk-3.0

(solved the problem, IIRC only the -2.0 packages were actually installed).

Are those dependencies missing ?

Thanks for reporting this bug.

Looking at my system,

$ apt-cache rdepends gir1.2- spice-client- glib-2. 0
gir1.2- spice-client- glib-2. 0
Reverse Depends:
gir1. 2-spice- client- glib-2. 0:i386
libspice- client- glib-2. 0-dev
gir1. 2-spice- client- gtk-3.0
gir1. 2-spice- client- gtk-2.0
0 ✓ serge@sl

$ apt-cache rdepends gir1.2- spice-client- gtk-2.0
gir1.2- spice-client- gtk-2.0
Reverse Depends:
gir1. 2-spice- client- gtk-2.0: i386
libspice- client- gtk-2.0- dev

$ apt-cache show virt-manager| grep spice
Recommends: libvirt-bin (>= 1.2.7), gnome-icon-theme, gir1.2- spice-client- gtk-3.0

$ apt-cache show gir1.2- spice-client- gtk-3.0 | grep gir1.2
Package: gir1.2- spice-client- gtk-3.0
Depends: gir1.2-glib-2.0, gir1.2-gtk-3.0, gir1.2- spice-client- glib-2. 0 (= 0.25-1build1), libspice- client- gtk-3.0- 4 (>= 0.14)
Filename: pool/universe/ s/spice- gtk/gir1. 2-spice- client- gtk-3.0_ 0.25-1build1_ amd64.deb

So the problem appears to be that gir1.2- spice-client- gtk-3.0 is only recommended,
not depended upon, by virt-manager.

Description:
cannot use usb sticks in guest machines.

spice-client-error-quark usb redirection failed. acces denied insufficient permissions. using virt-manager. cannot redirect usb sticks.

as side detail I’m able to access smartphone via mtp (usb) in the guest machines.

community/spice-glib 0.31-1 [installed]
community/spice-gtk3 0.31-1 [installed]
community/virt-manager 1.3.2-5 [installed]
community/libvirt-glib 0.2.3-1 [installed]
community/libvirt 1.3.3-2 [installed]

Steps to reproduce:

insert a usb stick.

This task depends upon

I have the same issue, it happens with any USB device I try to redirect.

libvirt 1.3.4-1
qemu 2.5.1-1
spice 0.12.6-2
spice-glib 0.31-1
spice-gtk3 0.31-1
systemd 229-3
virt-manager 1.3.2-5

Same issue here aswell. On my desktop, everythings works fine (older package versions). On my laptop, I have latest package versions installed and it doesn’t work. I’ve put my user in the same groups and libvirt / qemu are configured the same way on both systems.

Update: just updated my desktop from spice-gtk3 0.30-1 and spice-glib 0.30-1 to 0.31-1, now I have the same error on my desktop aswell. Configuration files are identical.

I have the same issue.

Packages:
————
libvirt 1.3.5-1
qemu 2.6.0-1
spice 0.12.7-1
spice-glib 0.31-1
spice-gtk3 0.31-1
systemd 230-4
virt-manager 1.3.2-5

cat /etc/udev/rules.d/50-spice.rules
SUBSYSTEM==»usb», GROUP=»spice», MODE=»0660″
SUBSYSTEM==»usb_device», GROUP=»spice», MODE=»0660″
EOF

usermod -a -G spice $USER

Yes, it did work.

The group «spice» did not exist on my system and I have not found it in the list of standard Arch Linux group names. I created it anyway.

The udev modifies ownership of /dev/bus/usb/XXX/YYY from root:root. I am not sure if it is the best way to set every plugged usb device as group-owned by spice.

Also, I’ve noticed this error only occurs in conjunction with USB Redirection module. When I assign USB devices directly to VMs before booting up the VM, I can use them without any issues.

Btw. this issue is not limited to USB storage devices, but all kind of USB devices.

Spice Session — handles connection details, and active channels

Stability Level

Functions

Properties

Signals

Types and Values

Object Hierarchy

Includes

Description

The SpiceSession class handles all the SpiceChannel connections. It’s also the class that contains connections informations, such as “host” and “port” .

You can simply set the property “uri” to something like «spice://127.0.0.1?port=5930» to configure your connection details.

You may want to connect to “channel-new” signal, to be informed of the availability of channels and to interact with them.

For example, when the SpiceInputsChannel is available and get the event SPICE_CHANNEL_OPENED , you can send key events with spice_inputs_key_press() . When the SpiceMainChannel is available, you can start sharing the clipboard. .

Once SpiceSession properties set, you can call spice_session_connect() to start connecting and communicating with a Spice server.

Functions

spice_session_new ()

Creates a new Spice session.

Returns

spice_session_connect ()

Open the session using the “host” and “port” .

Parameters

Returns

FALSE if the session state is invalid for connection request. TRUE if the connection is initiated. To know whether the connection is established, you must watch for channels creation ( “channel-new” ) and the channels state ( “channel-event” ).

spice_session_open_fd ()

Open the session using the provided fd socket file descriptor. This is useful if you create the fd yourself, for example to setup a SSH tunnel.

Note however that additional sockets will be needed by all the channels created for session so users of this API should hook into SpiceChannel::open-fd signal for each channel they are interested in, and create and pass a new socket to the channel using spice_channel_open_fd , in the signal callback.

If fd is -1, a valid fd will be requested later via the SpiceChannel::open-fd signal. Typically, you would want to just pass -1 as fd this call since you will have to hook to SpiceChannel::open-fd signal anyway.
