Getting SSH Handshake Failed on Alma 9

AkashRajvanshi commented 2 months ago

Hi, I'm trying to build Alma 9 images, but I'm encountering an SSH handshake error: 'ssh: handshake failed: read tcp 127.0.0.1:59326->127.0.0.1:3346: read: connection reset by peer'. Can you please help?"

Hi Akash, Could you please share more information from you setup?

Which image are trying to build?
Host OS
Packer version

AkashRajvanshi commented 2 months ago

Hi @LKHN , below are the required details of my environment:

Which image are you trying to build? qemu.almalinux-9-gencloud-x86_64
Host OS: Kubuntu 22.04.4 LTS x86_64
Packer version: Packer v1.10.3

Building BIOS images is working, but when I try for UEFI, it gets stuck on the SSH connection part.

Hi @LKHN , I tried building UEFI images and also opened a local VNC viewer. It shows on screen "guest has not initialized the display (yet)", while the console is attempting to SSH into it.
