Doesn't work in KVM root mode, doesn´t recognize network in user mode

Hello!

I found this interesting project and tried to use it. I first tried to run it in KVM root mode (default as per Fedora 36), but as I saw in different issues that winapps works best in user mode.

I thus installed Windows 10 in user space and configured it again. Now the check command fails because it doesn't find the default network:

→ bin/winapps check
errore: impossibile ottenere la rete 'default'
errore: Network not found: no network with matching name 'default'
[03:45:12:150] [14385:14389] [ERROR][com.freerdp.core] - freerdp_tcp_is_hostname_resolvable:freerdp_set_last_error_ex ERRCONNECT_DNS_NAME_NOT_FOUND [0x00020005]

virsh net-list shows not networks.

Is there a way to fix this?

Thank you very much

I was able to bypass this issue by forcing the IP address used by the VM within the network adapter's IPV4 properties inside Windows so it wouldnt renew. I then set the RDP_IP field within /home/$USER/.config/winapps/winapps.conf to that same IP and everything was able to connect.

Its not a great solution. Upon further testing it can lead to breaking internet connectivity to the VM. That isnt an issue for the apps im running, but you might want to keep an eye out for something more elegant.
