The spice-gtk library used by remote-viewer must be built with
webdav enabled. If you are using a linux client, you can check if
phodav is linked with remote-viewer with:

$ ldd /usr/bin/remote-viewer | grep -i phodav
    libphodav-2.0.so.0 => /lib64/libphodav-2.0.so.0

You can compare the configuration as mentioned in 'Folder
Sharing' section in:

    https://www.spice-space.org/spice-user-manual.html

If you can't figure out, might need to add some --spice-debug and
share it.

Cheers,
Victor
