It has probably something to do with this piece of code, in daemon/libvirtd.c:
I finally got back to looking at this, and that's what I discovered as well. (I hadn't checked my email in the interim.)
I stopped it from dropping privileges and now libvirtd starts. Earlier, when launching virsh (with no arguments), I think I got some errors about localhost:8000.
I ignored that, as I'm really looking to test VirtualBox, which brings me to this...
If I don't have the VirtualBox GUI running, virsh fails to connect:
/usr/local/bin/virsh -c vbox:///session ... hangs for 10 or so seconds ... error: internal error nsIEventQueue object is null error: failed to connect to the hypervisor
Same issue here, on OpenIndiana.
I expected libvirt to handle starting VirtualBox processes as necessary.
It does.
How is this designed to work?
Without the GUI running: ruben@osx ~]$ virsh -c vbox:///session start OpenIndiana Domain OpenIndiana started I expect it's a Solaris issue. Cheers, Ruben
