Qemu stderr: gtk initialization failed #272

Hello @mikoday Try adding the following under the qemuargs in the hcl file to to see if the error goes away? |
|
This issue is stale because it has been open for 30 days with no activity. |
|
Same issue here, I would add that line in the hcl file to see if it fixes it but there is no qemuargs section, or at least I don't know where to find it... |
|
Hello, qemuargs = concat(local.baseargs, (var.use_tpm == "yes" ? local.tpmargs : ["-display", "none"])) |
|
Ah, this needs to be added into baseargs... I added I now seems that is working. Thank you! |
|
Hello @ITBalancer @tdtmusic2 If you have a recent version of the windows template, I suppose the easiest way would be to send |
|
Yes, work as well @alanbach , but I didn't get to work at the end. |
|
@ITBalancer I see! Depending on how fast or slow the build environment is, you may need to adjust the boot time here: https://github.com/canonical/packer-maas/blob/main/windows/windows.pkr.hcl#L76 Windows ISO images have this press any key message with a timeout which sometime cause the initial boot to fail if that timer is not set right. I suggest starting with setting that to 5s and go from there. Connect via VNC to watch the console to see where it is breaking or getting stuck. |
|
Great sir! Gotcha! I realized boot time line, but wasn't think that can help. |

Hello, I'm trying to make Windows image on Ubuntu 24.04.1 (Noble Numbat) but have below error:
Qemu stderr: gtk initialization failed
I even build Qemu from source with these parameters but without success.
./configure --enable-gtk --enable-slirpHere is my output:
