Hello people. I'm having a problem with virt-manager in witch it doesn't wanna work, and I didn't find the how to fix the error in anyway, in a openrc system at least, that I guess is part of the problem.
Unable to connect to libvirt qemu:///system.
Failed to connect socket to '/var/run/libvirt/virtqemud-sock': No such file or directory
Libvirt URI is: qemu:///system
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/connection.py", line 922, in _do_open
self._backend.open(cb, data)
File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtinst/connection.py", line 153, in open
conn = libvirt.openAuth(self._open_uri,
File "/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/libvirt.py", line 148, in openAuth
raise libvirtError('virConnectOpenAuth() failed')
libvirt.libvirtError: Failed to connect socket to '/var/run/libvirt/virtqemud-sock': No such file or directory
I added myself in to the libvirt group, installed the libvirt-openrc package, tried opening the program in sudo and searched everywhere but I can't make it work. Help would be nice.
Thanks in advance.
This sounds silly but are you absolute sure you started the service? The socket file missing usually means that libvirtd isn't actually running.
Yeah I guess I am retarded. I just sudo rc-service libvirtd start and it worked. lol
Thanks btw.
