Bundle doesn't indicate that spice console needs to be enabled in nova-cc for openstack-dashboard (was Can't access console instance in openstack base #72)

[Mario Chirinos]

After a fresh deployment of openstack base #72, console is not available for instances. Horizon shows "Unable to load console. Please reload page to try again" in instances details or " Error: No available console found. Details" when launching the console form network topology

Mario, thanks for taking the time to file this bug. The console is not enabled by default in the openstack-base bundle.

To enable the console, you'll need to select your console type and configure this in the nova-cloud-controller. For example, to enable the console type of spice you can run:

juju config nova-cloud-controller console-access-protocol=spice

Tankyou very much for your short reply, form this document https://docs.openstack.org/nova/rocky/admin/remote-console-access.html, I see that spice is the console for html5 (horizon), am I right?

also i think it would be use full if the example you provide to me is added too https://jaas.ai/openstack-base/bundle/72

Regards

Yes, spice is a html5 console that can be used in the openstack-dashboard.

I'm changing the title of the bug to reflect the documentation requirement for the README. Thanks.
