Hello, 

I configured libvirt like this 
./configure --prefix=/ --exec-prefix=/usr/ --libdir=/usr/lib64/
--with-storage-dir --with-storage-dir --with-storage-dir
--with-storage-dir --with-storage-dir --with-storage-dir
--with-storage-dir --with-storage-dir --with-qemu --with-libvirtd
--with-selinux --with-network --with-libblkid

and then, 

make -j4 
make install

and then 

# virsh list --all 
Id    Name                           State
----------------------------------------------------
-     vm1                            shut off

# virsh pool-list --all
error: Failed to list active pools
error: this function is not supported by the connection driver:
virConnectNumOfStoragePools


getting this error , any clues on why is this error ? 


Regards,
Onkar

i download the libvirt-0.9.12.tar.gz and make rpms
rpmbuild -tb libvirt-0.9.12.tar.gz
everything is ok.maybe you can have a try.

That's a lot of redundant --with-storage-dir options.

Generally, the error message you are seeing implies that you built
without the proper prerequisites for the function that you are trying to
call; perhaps it would help if you pasted the output of:

$ sed -n '/Configuration summary/,/Cache/p' config.log
$ virsh uri
$ virsh version --daemon
$ virsh --version=long

which in turn may help us figure out which *-devel packages you were
missing when you did your self-build, as needed in order to enable that
function.

Hi,

I'm not saying it is the case, but it could've happened:

If you installed from git and your pool resides in ~/.libvirt, then it
is possible, that thisthis was moved to ~/.config/libvirt and storage
driver failed to start. If you are building with modules enabled, then
the module didn't get to load (and unfortunately didn't show any
message, this should be a bug) and you have no storageDriver available,
that's why you see this message. This is what happened to me. The
solution is to virsh pool-edit the pool after you configured and
installed with --without-driver-modules.

Looks like a code typo.  This should fix it:
