Either use virsh -c lxc:///, or set LIBVIRT_DEFAULT_URI=lxc:/// > or edit your libvirt.conf to set a default > I am getting very tired :-( 1- libvirt was NOT installed on my Arch box !! Shame on me 2- edited libvirt.conf: uri_default = "lxc:///" 3. edited dahlia.xml as it has a typo : exec instead of exe in the os section Result: gabx@hortensia ➤➤ /drawer/vm # virsh define dahlia.xml Domain dahlia defined from dahlia.xml Now I have to read more about all this UID/GID mapping story, or get more sleep maybe.
