You could enable debug to see what's going on.

Just to be sure, you are using mingw infrastructure to cross-compile spice-gtk itself as mingw-spice-gtk does enable usbredir for windows by default [0]

usbdk integration with spice-gtk was introduced in 0.32

1) Use fedora 24 or fedora 25
2) Use spice-gtk with usbdk integration (0.32 or 0.33)
3) If it fails, provide debug from the client as it can hint the issue

the end of spice-debug of spicy.exe

the libusb debug logs happened when redirecting usb device, then spicy.exe crash and exit when unplug the usb device, as the end of the log describes.

   Thanks for the reply, now I use Fedora 24 and spice-gtk 0.33, but it turn out the same issue. And just to be sure, I still need to install usbclerk,right? I use usbclerk 0.3.3.

   I found that "toggle mouse mode" in Options can't work properly either, the mouse can't click when toggled. And if toggle the mouse mode when redirecting usb device, the mouse cursor can move, but still can't click.

   I enable spice-debug, it repeatedly output lots of libusb debug logs when redirecting usb device, and I provide part of it in the attachment. Then I unplug the usb device , and spicy.exe crash and exit, as the end of the attachment.

   the spice-gtk configure:

      Spice-Gtk 0.33
        ==============
        prefix:                   /usr/i686-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw

        Now type 'make' to build spice-gtk

Nops. You need to install UsbDk only (in the machine you run spicy.exe, which is the client machine)

Right. The toggle mouse mode is there to toggle between server mode and client mode. It should work in server mode.

You can disable gstreamer video if you want

Sorry, there is another nitpic here. You need to cross compile the latest libusb with --enable-usbdk as well, please check [0] for the request to update this in mingw-libusbx

[0] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1388680

So, I'm afraid that you might be seeing a real bug with the mouse while redirecting the usb device but I plan to test it after we update mingw-libusbx and mingw-spice-gtk.

If everthing goes well, next mingw-libusbx will have --enable-usbdk and next mingw-spice-gtk will have --enable-usbredir; the same will apply for the windows version of remote-viewer [1]

[1] https://virt-manager.org/download/

In case you test the latest libusb on windows, let me know if the issue is solved; Also, it might be interesting to share the qemu command line of your guest (or the libvirt xml with virsh dumpxml <domain>)

it does not say much, sadly. a backtrace would be much more useful

(In reply to Victor Toso from comment #5)
Sorry for the late reply, I compile the libusb 1.0.21 with --enable-usbdk , usbredir 0.7.1 and spice-gtk 0.33, it works alright on Linux guest VM, but fails on Windows7 guest VM (I hadn't found out before since I always test on windows). I hope this would be some valuable information,

the libvirt.xml of the guest

the guest is run on openstack

If you are using windows client and it works with linux guest, that's really great.

using windows client and fails with windows 7 as guest. ok.

I'll be trying to reproduce this soon. I've updated the mingw-libusbx to the latest in fedora and I plan to bump mingw-spice-gtk to 0.33 with usbredir enabled.... then I'll try to test this.

Hi,

I've built mingw-libusb 1.0.21 [0] version which integrations nicely with UsbDk; Then I've built mingw-spice-gtk with usbredir [1]; After small updates on msitools (related to gstreamer1 packages) I've created a virt-viewer-5.0 binary for testing (only for *testing*)

It would be *great* to have your input on this as it is the base for the actual release in a few weeks.

PS: you can built it yourself if you prefer, using [0] and [1]

I can't reproduce this on Windows 7 x64, using the build from comment #9.
