That's not the actual error message (because the actual message wouldn't mis-spell directory), but is generally the message you see when libvirtd is not running. Are you sure you got your self-built libvirtd installed and running correctly? > > 2). there is missing libvirt-bin under /etc/init.d/, after compile and > installed libvirt 1.2.6 I'm not familiar enough with libvirt on ubuntu to know if this is a problem. If you are going to replace your distro's old libvirt with a newer self-built version, it is STILL helpful to install your distro's libvirt first, to make sure that all the distro-specific tweaks (such as setting up /etc/init.d/ and so forth to run libvirtd as a daemon) are in place. > > 3). I tried to start libvirtd daemon, sudo /usr/sbin/libvirtd/start > shows "/usr/sbin/libvirtd: unexpected, non-option, command line > arguments" According to the tutorial blog that you linked to, it seems like you would use 'sudo initctl start libvirt-bin' and not 'sudo /usr/sbin/libvirtd/start' to start libvirtd - but again, I'm not enough of an ubuntu user to verify this myself. Again, until you are sure that your ./configure arguments matched the distro build, and that you have got libvirtd running correctly, then the rest of your symptoms are evidence that you didn't install your replacement self-built libvirt correctly for what the rest of your distro is expecting. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
