[Bug 235386] Re: Permissions of files in /etc/libvirt/qemu are too restrictive

2010-04-01 Thread Jamie Strandboge
The files in /etc/libvirt/qemu are designed to be used and managed by libvirt and not to be edited by hand. The correct and documented way to make changes to your machine definition is mentioned in comment #8 in this bug. ** Changed in: libvirt (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid -- Per

I can confirm. If you load virsh as a user in the libvirtd group, and define a domain from a user readable xml file, libvirt creates a copy in /etc/libvirt/qemu/ that's mode 600 root/root. The user can no longer read these files. One could use 'dumpxml domain', copy and paste into a new file, the

I had edited the xml file to change some settings of the domain. According to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM#head- 3d3cc318838c52784822e7550dfba68bc7f25084 "If you have made a change to the XML configuration file, you need to tell KVM to reload it before restarting the VM: virsh # define

Ah, yes, I misread your original report. I'm not sure why you're trying to define a domain that is already defined? The files in /etc/libvirt/qemu describe domains that are already defined, so defining them again would be a no-op. What are you actually trying to do? -- Permissions of files in /et

No, I have not changed the configuration. libvirtd may be running as root, but virsh is running as me. It tries to open the file and fails. When I virsh # define /etc/libvirt/qemu/opensolaris.xml error: Failed to open '/etc/libvirt/qemu/opensolaris.xml': Permission denied strace on virsh shows

This makes no sense. The libvirtd process managing qemu:///system runs as root, so that should work fine. Did you change libvirtd.conf in some way? ** Changed in: libvirt (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- Permissions of files in /etc/libvirt/qemu are too restrictive https://bugs.launc
