I can successfully connect to a local (qemu) machine using virt-manager. I cannot connect to a remote machine (xen) using virt-manager.
I can connect via virsh to the same remote machine using xen+ssh. The same method does not work for virt-manager. The error reported is the same as above: Unable to open a connection to the libvirt management daemon. Verify that: - The 'libvirt-bin' package is installed - The 'libvirtd' daemon has been started The attempt to connect via virt-manager kills libvirtd on the remote server. It dies with error: Apr 18 16:05:19 dram kernel: [ 2510.448100] libvirtd[5605] trap divide error rip:7f4ad963467a rsp:7fffe20ed730 error:0 in /var/log/syslog This symptom has been reported by others: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2008-May/145951.html ** Changed in: virt-manager (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- Virt-Manager is unable to open a connection to the libvirt management daemon https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/222938 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
