After upgrading to v5.6.0, starting libvirtd fails with the following message in journalctl -xe:
libvirtd[186338]: internal error: Some activation file descriptors are unclaimed
5b8569dd6e284b9159c701e8bffafb196983fc4a introduces the message. The commit message indicates that systemd version 227 is required, but my system seems to be running version 237.
Is this a known issue? Is there any other configuration for systemd needed to avoid the problem?
Can you tell me what operating system you are seeing this on ?
This is on Ubuntu 18.04.2
Also, can you confirm that you're using the stock unit files that libvirt distributes, with no local customizations ?
As far as I'm aware there are no modifications to the unit file. I produced the problem by just pulling libvirt 5.6.0 and running:
./autogen.sh --system make make install service libvirtd start
Ok, I'll try to reproduce myself.
One other question - did you have the official Ubuntu libvirt packages installed at the time you did "make install", or did you uninstall them first ?
Initially, I had installed over the ubuntu libvirt packages. However, I suspected that something may have "lingered" from the distro packages causing the issue, but I was able to produce the issue on a fresh install with no ubuntu libvirt packages installed as well.
