[libvirt-users] Unable to start libvirt systemd service
Hi all, I am using the libvirt 4.9 version. I get the following error when I try to run the command virsh list after the system comes up virsh list error: failed to connect to the hypervisor error: Failed to connect socket to '/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock': No such file or directory When I run the command ps -ef | grep libvirtd, to find whether the libvirtd process is running. I get the following message. ps -ef | grep libvirtd root 418 1 0 06:33 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/libvirtd --daemon --config /etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf root 420 1 0 06:33 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/libvirtd --daemon --config /etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf After sometime, I see that the virsh list command goes through and the command ps -ef | grep libvirtd, gives the following putput ps -ef | grep libvirtd root 420 1 0 06:33 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/libvirtd --daemon --config /etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf root 610 227 0 06:34 ttyS0 00:00:00 grep libvirtd root at draco:~# virsh list Id Name State -------------------- Following are the logs of journalctl -xe | grep libvirtd -- Unit libvirtd.service has begun starting up.
