Re: regarding this Message #09165 (VNC error with latest version of Firefox)

 

In diablo, nova shipped its own websocket proxy, which had some browser
compatibility issues due to eventlet's out-dated websocket implementation.
 For this reason, in essex we replaced nova-vncproxy with one more directly
based on noVNC's websocket proxy.  Docs for the current proxy may be found
here:
https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/doc/source/runnova/vncconsole.rst

At the time of diablo release, I had an early version of the current proxy
working against stable/diablo here:
https://github.com/cloudbuilders/noVNC/branches/diablo - devstack's
stable/diablo shows how to use that branch.

I just ran the branch mentioned above against diablo + Firefox 11 - seems
to work.  I would expect the 'official' diablo vnc proxy to have browser
compat issues, though I have not tried your exact configuration.
