[libvirt-users] When IPv6 is disabled, libvirtd cannot start on boot
Hi all,
When IPv6 is disabled in modprobed.conf through:
options ipv6 disable=1
libvirtd cannot start on boot, it produces the following debug message:
libvirtd: 1545: error : virCommandWait:2192 : internal error Child
process (/bin/sh -c IPT=/usr/sbin/ip6tables
cmd='$IPT -n -L FORWARD'
eval res=\$\("${cmd} 2>&1"\)
if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then echo "Failure to execute command '${cmd}' :
'${res}'."; exit 1;fi
libvirtd: 851: error : virNetSocketNewListenTCP:226 : Unable to create socket: Address
family not supported by protocol
However, I can successfuly start libvirtd later on without IPv6 support. I think IPv6 is
disabled in the early stage during system boot, so libvirtd should not assume the IPv6 is
in exist during service start. But I could be wrong, please point me out, Thanks.
My OS: Linux 3.1.7-1-ARCH
/etc/rc.conf: DAEMONS=(hwclock dbus syslog-ng network netfs crond sshd libvirtd)
