The error messages are a bit cleaner now that the networking issue if fixed (and I guess we know they're not related). Here's what shows up on the console: > > smoyernew images # virt-manager > process 5225: D-Bus library appears to be incorrectly set up; failed to read machine uuid: Failed to open "/var/lib/dbus/machine-id": No such file or directory > See the manual page for dbus-uuidgen to correct this issue. > D-Bus not built with -rdynamic so unable to print a backtrace > Aborted The word 'Aborted' is the key there. We call the DBus library, but it is hitting a fatal error during its initialization & aborting the entire process. That's not something we can work around in virt-manager :-( Really need to figure out why dbus isn't setup correctly on this machine. On Fedora systems that directory is created automatically by the RPM install $ rpm -qf /var/lib/dbus/ dbus-1.0.1-12.fc6 Dan. -- |=- Red Hat, Engineering, Emerging Technologies, Boston. +1 978 392 2496 -=| |=- Perl modules: http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ -=| |=- Projects: http://freshmeat.net/~danielpb/ -=| |=- GnuPG: 7D3B9505 F3C9 553F A1DA 4AC2 5648 23C1 B3DF F742 7D3B 9505 -=|
