Sure looks executable. And there's no SELinux on the box.
libvirt is 0.7.0

Seriously bizarre ! What distro ? You might want to strace the libvirtd daemon
strace -f -o trace.log $PID-OF-LIBVIRTD
and then look in trace.log for EPERM / EACCESS on any syscall.

The host is Ubuntu 9.10. And apparmor has been disabled but what's strange is that it looks like the kernel is loading a profile and then denying access and then removing the profile. # virsh start Ubuntu-domU-x86-1 Connecting to uri: qemu:///system error: Failed to start domain Ubuntu-domU-x86-1 error: internal error unable to start guest: libvir: error : cannot execute binary /usr/bin/xenner: Permission denied # ls -l /usr/bin/xenner -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 118936 2009-12-14 17:05 /usr/bin/xenner + apparmor_status apparmor module is loaded. 0 profiles are loaded. 0 profiles are in enforce mode. 0 profiles are in complain mode. 0 processes have profiles defined. 0 processes are in enforce mode : 0 processes are in complain mode. 0 processes are unconfined but have a profile defined. # /var/log/kern.log: Dec 15 11:28:35 grp-01-23-02 kernel: [213217.260223] type=1503 audit(1260894515.683:73): operation="exec" pid=16770 parent=16769 profile="libvirt-74367128-9bd6-3264-3833-f661c47b464e" requested_mask="x::" denied_mask="x::" fsuid=0 ouid=0 name="/usr/bin/xenner" Dec 15 11:28:35 grp-01-23-02 kernel: [213217.305593] br0: port 2(vnet0) entering disabled state Dec 15 11:28:35 grp-01-23-02 kernel: [213217.344700] device vnet0 left promiscuous mode Dec 15 11:28:35 grp-01-23-02 kernel: [213217.344703] br0: port 2(vnet0) entering disabled state Dec 15 11:28:35 grp-01-23-02 kernel: [213217.560461] type=1505 audit(1260894515.976:74): operation="profile_remove" pid=16772 name=libvirt-74367128-9bd6-3264-3833-f661c47b464e namespace=default Dec 15 11:30:20 grp-01-23-02 kernel: [213322.133717] type=1505 audit(1260894620.556:75): operation="profile_load" pid=16995 name=libvirt-74367128-9bd6-3264-3833-f661c47b464e Dec 15 11:30:20 grp-01-23-02 kernel: [213322.137277] device vnet0 entered promiscuous mode Dec 15 11:30:20 grp-01-23-02 kernel: [213322.138430] br0: port 2(vnet0) entering learning state Dec 15 11:30:20 grp-01-23-02 kernel: [213322.139715] type=1503 audit(1260894620.556:76): operation="exec" pid=16999 parent=16998 profile="libvirt-74367128-9bd6-3264-3833-f661c47b464e" requested_mask="x::" denied_mask="x::" fsuid=0 ouid=0 name="/usr/bin/xenner" Dec 15 11:30:20 grp-01-23-02 kernel: [213322.181318] br0: port 2(vnet0) entering disabled state Dec 15 11:30:20 grp-01-23-02 kernel: [213322.220628] device vnet0 left promiscuous mode Dec 15 11:30:20 grp-01-23-02 kernel: [213322.220631] br0: port 2(vnet0) entering disabled state Dec 15 11:30:20 grp-01-23-02 kernel: [213322.359241] type=1505 audit(1260894620.773:77): operation="profile_remove" pid=17001 name=libvirt-74367128-9bd6-3264-3833-f661c47b464e namespace=default -Gerry
