Re: [libvirt] 0.9.7 virsh console regression?

Hi folks, I have a few "headless" qemu domains that use serial consoles. Typically i connect to the consoles with # virsh console <domain> However with 0.9.7 I get Connected to domain gentoo-base Escape character is ^] error: internal error character device (null) is not using a PTY

I am still able to connect to the console if i go into the virt-manager gui and use the "gui" console, but I'd rather not do that as sometimes I don't have access to the gui. Is this a regression or am I expected to do some kind of migration on my domains. These are qemu guests running on Gentoo Linux. An xml dump of a typical domain follows: <domain type='kvm'> <name>base</name> <uuid>b4a528dd-4c31-03ca-bdde-795c4c38592d</uuid> <memory>524288</memory> <currentMemory>61440</currentMemory> <vcpu>1</vcpu> <os> <type arch='x86_64' machine='pc-0.12'>hvm</type> <kernel>/var/lib/libvirt/images/vmlinuz</kernel> <cmdline>root=/dev/vda1 rootfstype=ext4 quiet console=ttyS0 TERM=vt100</cmdline> <boot dev='hd'/> <bootmenu enable='no'/> </os> <features> <acpi/> <pae/> </features> <cpu match='exact'> <model>Nehalem</model> <vendor>Intel</vendor> <feature policy='require' name='tm2'/> <feature policy='require' name='est'/> <feature policy='require' name='monitor'/> <feature policy='require' name='ss'/> <feature policy='require' name='vme'/> <feature policy='require' name='rdtscp'/> <feature policy='require' name='ht'/> <feature policy='require' name='ds'/> <feature policy='require' name='pbe'/> <feature policy='require' name='tm'/> <feature policy='require' name='vmx'/> <feature policy='require' name='ds_cpl'/> <feature policy='require' name='xtpr'/> <feature policy='require' name='acpi'/> <feature policy='require' name='x2apic'/> </cpu> <clock offset='utc'/> <on_poweroff>destroy</on_poweroff> <on_reboot>restart</on_reboot> <on_crash>restart</on_crash> <devices> <emulator>/usr/bin/qemu-kvm</emulator> <disk type='file' device='disk'> <driver name='qemu' type='qcow2' cache='none'/> <source file='/var/lib/libvirt/images/base.qcow'/> <target dev='vda' bus='virtio'/> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x04' function='0x0'/> </disk> <interface type='network'> <mac address='52:54:00:06:84:c0'/> <source network='default'/> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x05' function='0x0'/> </interface> <serial type='pty'> <target port='0'/> </serial> <console type='pty'> <target type='serial' port='0'/> </console> <memballoon model='virtio'> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x03' function='0x0'/> </memballoon> </devices> </domain> Thanks in advance, -a -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list(a)redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
