Just wanted to drop a line that the problem is still present in libvirt- bin 0.7.5-5ubuntu4.
Howto reproduce: Simulate a crash of libvirtd: sudokillall -9 libvirtd Start libvirtd manually 10:08:04.344: error : qemudWritePidFile:494 : Failed to open pid file '/var/run/libvirtd.pid' : File exists Verfify that this error is invalid, because libvirtd is really not running: ps $(cat /var/run/libvirtd.pid) To make it working again: sudo rm /var/run/libvirtd.pid sudo start libvirt-bin -- error : qemudWritePidFile:498 : Failed to open pid file '/var/run/libvirtd.pid' : File exists https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/510658 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
