Hi, I have tried that too and that did not help either (i.e adding the format type=gpt) The output you requested ``` $ sudo qemu-img info --backing-chain /var/virt/WINDOWS/WIN11 image: /var/virt/WINDOWS/WIN11 file format: qcow2 virtual size: 60 GiB (64424509440 bytes) disk size: 55.1 GiB cluster_size: 65536 backing file: WIN11-BASE (actual path: /var/virt/WINDOWS/WIN11-BASE) backing file format: raw Format specific information: compat: 1.1 compression type: zlib lazy refcounts: false refcount bits: 16 corrupt: false extended l2: false Child node '/file': filename: /var/virt/WINDOWS/WIN11 protocol type: file file length: 55.1 GiB (59202338816 bytes) disk size: 55.1 GiB image: /var/virt/WINDOWS/WIN11-BASE file format: raw virtual size: 60 GiB (64424509440 bytes) disk size: 26.5 GiB Child node '/file': filename: /var/virt/WINDOWS/WIN11-BASE protocol type: file file length: 60 GiB (64424509440 bytes) disk size: 26.5 GiB ``` On Thu, Sep 21, 2023 at 2:52 PM Peter Krempa <pkrempa@redhat.com> wrote:

I am getting an error with libivrt when I create a VM

Please attach the XML used here. It comes from a code path which shouldn't be possible to reach.

This is after I have done a dist-upgrade (was working fine before) debian trixie.
Which version did you have before?
error message says qemuBlockStorageSourceGetBlockdevFormatProps:1227 : internal

Could you please also attach the output of:
qemu-img info --backing-chain '/var/virt/WINDOWS/WIN11'
<disk type="file" device="disk"> <driver name="qemu" type="raw" cache="unsafe"/> <source file="/var/virt/WINDOWS/DUMMY"> <format type='gpt'/> </source> <target dev="vdb" bus="virtio"/> </disk>
In the definition I don't see anything that would hint that anything with the disk config is broken, for qcow2 volumes we do auto-detection of backing images, thus the request for the output of the command above.
