Hi,
I'm running KVM on Ubuntu and trying to get virtmanager running to
manage them. I installed virt-manager and other than a gnome
warning, it brings up the interface. I can see a single entry which
is my host machine name. When I right-click and select "Connect", I
get a python error saying:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/share/virt-manager/virtManager/engine.py", line
205, in _do_show_connect
self.show_connect()

self.windowConnect = vmmConnect(self.get_config(), self)
File "/usr/local/share/virt-manager/virtManager/connect.py", line
54, in __init__
default = virtinst.util.default_connection()
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'default_connection'
Does anyone know what the problem is? Am I missing a package?
Thanks,
Cam
You'll need the very latest python-virtinst package as well -- it
fixes this bug. python-virtinst is linked from virt-manager.org,
you'll need to get the tip of the current tree in Mercurial.
Good luck,

Ok, so that got rid of the error, but I still can't see any VMs. Is
there some method by which I need to specify the VMs to virt-manager or
should it detect any VMs that are running automatically?
Thanks,
Cam
Well, it depends on how you have defined any VMs you are running. If you
have defined KVM vms via libvirt, then virt-manager will get the
relevant information for them from libvirt and display them in the UI.
If you haven't defined any domains at all, you can create them by
clicking the "new" button next to the KVM connection in virt-manager.
If you've created a KVM guest outside of libvirt, you'll need to
redefine it using libvirt via "virsh define", or manually place a
complete XML domain definition in the correct directory under
/etc/libvirt -- otherwise libvirt has no way of knowing anything about
the guest and can't manage it for you.
Hope this helps,
