If libvirt-bin is started, then you have the bridge interface: $ ifconfig virbr0 virbr0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:00:00:00:00:00 inet addr:192.168.122.1 Bcast:192.168.122.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::200:ff:fe00:0/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:31 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:5135 (5.0 KB) Stop it: ~$ sudo /etc/init.d/libvirt-bin stop * Stopping libvirt management daemon libvirtd [ OK ] Problem, its still up: $ ifconfig virbr0 virbr0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:00:00:00:00:00 inet addr:192.168.122.1 Bcast:192.168.122.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::200:ff:fe00:0/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:31 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:5135 (5.0 KB) Try and start it: $ sudo /etc/init.d/libvirt-bin start * Starting libvirt management daemon libvirtd libvir: QEMU error : cannot create bridge 'virbr0' : File exists Failed to autostart network 'default': cannot create bridge 'virbr0' : File exists [fail] I am running the following packages and versions: $ dpkg -l |grep virt ii kvm 1:28-4ubuntu2 Full virtualization on x86 hardware ii libvirt-bin 0.4.0-0ubuntu0ppa6~gutsy1 the programs for the libvirt library ii libvirt0 0.4.0-0ubuntu0ppa6~gutsy1 library for interfacing with Xen & other virtu ii python-libvirt 0.4.0-0ubuntu0ppa6~gutsy1 libvirt python bindings ii python-virtkey 0.42 Library to emulate keyboard keypresses. ii virt-manager 0.5.2-3ubuntu0ppa2 desktop application for managing virtual machi ii virtinst 0.300.1+hg20071213-0ubuntu0~gutsy0.3 Programs to create and clone virtual machines ii xen-tools 3.5-1ubuntu2 Tools to manage debian XEN virtual servers Not sure if this helps. I have two laptops with the same configuration. I.e. I started with the same version from the ppa repo. They have recently been upgraded. They never used to have the bridge problem before the package upgrades. Something must have changed. I must say that you only notice the brigde issue if you are restarting the service at the command line. When its all working and you boot up, you dont notice it. -- [needs-packaging] virt-manager https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/116897 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
