Failed to connect to server VNC console in Openstack

Date posted : 12/04/2019

In this post, we’re going to explain about how to resolve vnc console error in Openstack horizon dashboard.

This happens because there is no controller ip mentioned in nova configuration file. We need to add below lines in order to resolve the issue.

Login to compute node, edit /etc/nova/nova.conf file

vncserver_proxyclient_address=192.168.1.5

Here 192.168.1.5 is the public ip address of compute node. If you are running multiple compute node, you need to add its own ip in nova.conf file

Now you can restart compute service

systemctl restart openstack-nova-compute.service
