Re: [libvirt-users] "connection refused", but server is listening

Another strange thing. I tried, in order to solve this, to put my hostname as listening address. I started with the ip, 192.168.2.2, and it works. I then decided to use the domain name, pasquale-Dell, but the socket is not created. Looking into logs it seems it tries to resolve the name, without success. After a lot of tries it just decides to give up. However, in file /etc/hosts the resolution is correctly set and I can just think that libvirt starts before the name discovery system is actually up. The fact the daemon is not started at all confirms this. But now here's the moment I begin to HATE libvirt. You would expect that executing service libvirt-bin start (or restart) would solve this, right? Well, if I do that the deamon correctly starts...but libvirt hangs!! Every connect I try with virsh, let it be local or remote, just hangs indefinitely. The is no *censored* way to restart the libvirt daemon: it just leads to hang. The only *censored* way to restart it is to restart the whole system and pray libvirt starts after the name resolution. 2014-03-07 10:26 GMT+01:00 Pasquale Dir <phate867(a)gmail.com&gt;:
