[libvirt] virDomainDefineXML forbidden for read only access

15 Jun 2009

      I am running an application that invokes the java method
virDomainDefineXML.  But  virDomainDefineXML is throwing  the exception
"forbidden for read only access".   I'm running as root.  I can
successfully define domain xml and create VMs with virsh.

Any suggestion of what I am do wrong?

Exception details:
exception caught:org.libvirt.LibvirtException: operation virDomainDefineXML
