Hi All,

I am in trouble here.  I would really appreciate any help
you guys can spare.

Scientific Linux 6.2, 64 bit.  (Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.2 clone)

$ rpm -qa \*qemu\*
qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.209.el6_2.4.x86_64
qemu-img-0.12.1.2-2.209.el6_2.4.x86_64
gpxe-roms-qemu-0.9.7-6.9.el6.noarch

$ uname -r
2.6.32-220.23.1.el6.x86_64

When I fired up my KVM Virtual Machine Manager (virt-manager)
this morning, four of my seven virtual machines disappeared,
including the one is desperately need.

Checking /etc/libvirt/qemu and they are all there.  Same
attributes too.  Checking where I put the virtual hard
drives and they are all there too.

Okay, so I try firing up the three that remain, I get the
following error message:

     Error starting domain: unsupported configuration: spice
     TLS port set in XML configuration, but TLS is disabled
     in qemu.conf

Yes, each VM has a different spice port set so I can tell them
apart.  This has always worked smoothly.

Huh? qemu.conf is the default.  The one with everything
commented out.  I even checked my backup: no change in
qemu.conf.

Checking /var/log/libvirt/libvirtd.log gives:

but
TLS is disabled in qemu.conf

Again with the spice port error.

The only thing I did to my system between working yesterday and
not working today was downgrade my flash-plugin.

I tried setting "spice_tls = 1" in qemu.conf, but the other
four VM still do not show up.  Spice lays an egg on the ones
that do show up, so I set spice_tls back to commented out.

I removed qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.209.el6_2.4.x86_64,
rebooted, reinstalled, rebooted.  No symptom change.

What is the world?  I can not find anything wrong!

Many thanks,

What security errata and other rpms have been installed recently?

-Connie Sieh

Hi Connie,

Thank you for the quick response.

Two weeks ago, I installed "hexedit".  Nothing since then, except
for downgrading my "flash-plugin"

-T

Yes, but what about any possible behind-the-scenes security upgrades?
Check /var/log/yum.log

(Just a thought...)

Oh my.  A lot of stuff goes on in the background.  These
two look interesting:

Jul 09 11:18:50 Updated: libvirt-0.9.10-21.el6.x86_64
Jul 09 11:19:22 Updated: selinux-policy-targeted-3.7.19-155.el6_3.noarch

Hi Larry and Connie,

    The both of you called it.  It did not know I got
updated in the background.  I should have been suspicious
when my stink' flash-plugin mysteriously got updated.
Larry's pointing me to /var/log/yum.log was a
light bulb moment.

   The following fixed my problem:

# yum downgrade libvirt  libvirt-client  libvirt-python

Thank you both so much!

p.s. bet you can't guess what my next post is going to be!
