I'm trying to run libvirtd from git, and the daemon is starting now, but when i try to start a VM (using virt-manager) it complains that virtlogd socket is unreachable. The problem is that it tries to reach it at the following location: virNetSocketNewConnectUNIX:713 : Failed to connect socket to '/home/tarrma/usr/var/run/libvirt/virtlogd-sock': Connection refused however, i specified in my $HOME/usr/etc/libvirt/libvirtd.confHow did you came up with this path?unix_sock_dir = "/var/run/libvirt" Then why virt-manager is not using the socket from /var/run/libvirt/virtlogd.sock ?? Any ideas, where i misconfigured my installation ?What did you specify as a prefix when building from git? Did you do `./autogen.sh --system`? Or used some custom prefix?I followed the instructions here: https://libvirt.org/compiling.html And as I didn't wanted to replace my Debian binaries, i opted for the $HOME/usr prefix: ./autogen.sh --prefix=$HOME/usr make make install Now i edited $HOME/usr/etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf to set unix_sock_dir = "/var/run/libvirt"
Did you also edit $HOME/usr/etc/libvirt/virtlogd.conf?
And running sudo ./usr/sbin/libvirtd creates the socket at the desired location. And so does sudo ./usr/sbin/virtlogd. But somehow, if i connect to qemu:///system with virt-manager, and attempt to start a VM, it complains that it cannot find virtlogd socket:
The problem is that virLogManagerDaemonPath() doesn't consider any configuration file, so it will always try to connect to LOCALSTATEDIR "/run/libvirt/virtlogd-sock" This could be fixed, at least partially. Would you mind creating a bug in our bugzilla so that we don't lose track of the issue? Feel free to use: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=Virtualization%20Tools&component=libvirt Or even better, get your first contribution by fixing that ;) Have a nice day, Martin
