Hi everyone:
I am just a new user to libvirt. I installed libvirt as:
./configure
make
sudo make
After that I run the program in the development guide. But it seems that
the program is stuck in the function of virConnectOpenReadOnly. When I
tried the command: virsh list --all, it is also stuck. So could anyone tell
me what's wrong with this?
Thank you so much

Which guide? Having a URL to the guide you were following will help us
know whether we can improve that guide to make it easier to use.

It may be easier to use a pre-built version from your distro, as that
will eliminate the possibility of user error in building your package
until you are more familiar with using libvirt. Beyond that, you didn't
give us much to go on - it is not obvious whether libvirtd is running,
or whether you ran 'virsh' as root or as a normal user, or even what is
in the log files, so it could be a number of problems.

Hi Eric:
Yes, I mean sudo make install.
What I installed the libvirt on ubuntu is as below:
./configure --prefix=/usr --localstatedir=/var --sysconfdir=/etc
make
sudo make install.
after installation, I try to start the libvirtd and the error is:
service libvirtd start
libvirtd: unrecognized service
Also when I type:
virsh list --all:
error: Failed to reconnect to the hypervisor
error: no valid connection
error: Failed to connect socket to '/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock': No such
file or directory
So what's wrong with that?
Thank you so much

I don't know what your init daemon is, but you need to tell configure
which style of init script you want to install:
./configure --with-init-script=systemd
or whatever you are using. See ./configure --help for more info on this.
Also when I type:
virsh list --all:
error: Failed to reconnect to the hypervisor
error: no valid connection
error: Failed to connect socket to '/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock': No
such file or directory
So what's wrong with that?
This is the result of libvirtd not running.
Thank you so much

Merely running 'make install' does NOT register libvirtd as a system
service. For that, you need additional steps, such as those encoded in
libvirt.spec.in:
%if %{with_systemd}
%if %{with_systemd_macros}
%systemd_post libvirtd.service
%else
if [ $1 -eq 1 ] ; then
# Initial installation
/bin/systemctl enable virtlockd.socket >/dev/null 2>&1 || :
/bin/systemctl enable libvirtd.service >/dev/null 2>&1 || :
fi
%endif
%else
%if %{with_cgconfig}
# Starting with Fedora 16/RHEL-7, systemd automounts all cgroups,
# and cgconfig is no longer a necessary service.
%if (0%{?rhel} && 0%{?rhel} < 7) || (0%{?fedora} && 0%{?fedora} <
16)
if [ "$1" -eq "1" ]; then
/sbin/chkconfig cgconfig on
fi
%endif
%endif
/sbin/chkconfig --add libvirtd
if [ "$1" -ge "1" ]; then
/sbin/service libvirtd condrestart > /dev/null 2>&1
fi
%endif
That is why we suggest that you install the pre-built libvirt from your
distro, before then trying to self-install, if you want to take
advantage of all the work your distro has done in hooking up libvirtd
into your system's normal scheme of services.
