Hello,
I'm trying to install and use libvirt 1.0.4 on an Ubuntu 12.04.2. I
compiled libvirt by doing:
$ ./configure --with-selinux=no --with-gnutls
$ make
$ sudo make install
Everything works fine and are installed under /usr/local
Then I started the libvirtd manually and try to start a linux container
that has the following configuration:
$ virsh -c lxc:/// dumpxml lxcvm1
<domain type='lxc'>
<name>lxcvm1</name>
<uuid>168edaae-e3b5-2d06-7c65-9aa444a6f234</uuid>
<memory unit='KiB'>2097152</memory>
<currentMemory unit='KiB'>2097152</currentMemory>
<vcpu placement='static'>1</vcpu>
<os>
<type arch='x86_64'>exe</type>
<init>/bin/sh</init>
</os>
<clock offset='utc'/>
<on_poweroff>destroy</on_poweroff>
<on_reboot>restart</on_reboot>
<on_crash>destroy</on_crash>
<devices>
<emulator>/usr/local/libexec/libvirt_lxc</emulator>
<filesystem type='mount' accessmode='passthrough'>
<source dir='/home/thouveng/lxc_dir/lxcvm1/rootfs'/>
<target dir='/'/>
</filesystem>
<console type='pty'>
<target type='lxc' port='0'/>
</console>
</devices>
</domain>
When I start the container I have the following error:
$ virsh -c lxc:/// start lxcvm1
error: Failed to start domain lxcvm1
error: internal error guest failed to start: PATH=/bin:/sbin TERM=linux
container=lxc-libvirt
container_uuid=168edaae-e3b5-2d06-7c65-9aa444a6f234
LIBVIRT_LXC_UUID=168edaae-e3b5-2d06-7c65-9aa444a6f234
LIBVIRT_LXC_NAME=lxcvm1 /bin/sh
error receiving signal from container: Input/output error
The libvirtd is started with info option so I can see:
2013-04-03 08:49:20.167+0000: 17046: error : virNetSocketReadWire:1362

LIBVIRT_LXC_NAME=lxcvm1 /bin/sh
error receiving signal from container: Input/output error
In libvirtd.conf I have:
auth_unix_ro = "none"
auth_unix_rw = "none"
auth_tcp = "none"
auth_tls = "none"
And in libvirt.conf everything is commented.
I have this error as normal user (in libvirtd group) and also as root.
Any hints to go further in the debugging are welcome.
Regards,
Guillaume
