I have checked that I removed all distro things, ran self-built virsh, libvirtd. To make sure, I use absolute paths for running. Also I will check process status in time. This is "ps" shown: 2996 1 3 08:48 ? 00:00:00 /usr/local/libvirt/sbin/libvirtd -d Is there some thing wrong? I can't search "libvirt-sock" after runing it. Sorry for top-posting. Thanks a lot!

Actually I make sure that I build libvirt, using "./configure --prefix="/usr/local/libvrt"". I have checked that all related files are under the directory-"/usr/local/libvirt", additionally, libvirtd's path is "/usr/local/libvirt/sbin/libvirtd". I am confused why I can't search libvirt-sock in my disk after starting libvirtd. Could you please give me some advises? Thanks a lot!

Note that '--prefix=/usr/local/libvrt' is a typo. Are you sure you are installing things where you think you are? Also note that /usr/local/libvirt is NOT where your distro installed things, so if you are using your distro's virsh, it won't connect to your self-built libvirtd. And have you double-checked that you are running your self-built libvirtd?

Finally, you are STILL top-posting, and STILL sending mail to just me instead of the list. It's making it hard to help you when you can't follow our requests, and for others that might be following this thread in the archives in the future to learn whatever ends up being your final solution.
