Hi Martin

Here is some more info in the libvirt/qemu/instance...log file . Does it help in resolving the issue  of :
 error : qemuMonitorIO:614 : internal>error End of file from monitor



In the libvirtd.log file I sent you could see clearly that  the debug option is active and this is  the most detailed  info available (or some better  option than log_leve=1 exists ?)


Thx

Do you have some filters applied?  If not, the file should have more
messages.  Actually, it should get so big it is unsuitable for the
list :)

This means qemu died before we even connected to the monitor socket.
And as can be seen from the instance log there is no output from qemu
as to why it died.

If you properly turn on debug logs (and restart libvirtd) you should
be able to see at least whether it was libvirt who killed the qemu
process (and in that case you should also see why it got killed).  If
that's not the case, though, I can't tell why qemu does not start.
But I can recommend few things to try:

1) start qemu using the command line from the logs, but beware it
   needs to be modified (remove the '-S' and don't use any file
   descriptors when launching it)

2) try reproducing this with current upstream libvirt and see whether
   the problem is still there

3) debug the qemu process and see why it dies

Sorry I have no specific info that would help right away.
