Dan, is this a regression? What I can see from ifconfig dump is that xenbr0 doesn't have an address on the machine where that bug happens. Both machines are using DHPC. Dan,
I have the following in virt-manager.log right after the application starts even
before doing anything else.

I have SELinux in permissive mode. Is that the root cause of the problem or it's
another bug?
Thanks.
This is a regression caused by the recent DBus security errata. We will need to z-stream this fix too :-( This bugzilla has Keywords: Regression. Since no regressions are allowed between releases, it is also being proposed as a blocker for this release. Please resolve ASAP. Upstream change to address this issue is http://hg.et.redhat.com/virt/applications/virt-manager--devel?cs=43d82ba67ffa Should be possible to backport this to 5.1.x and 5.2 virt-manager releases without any trouble. Set dev ack. set beta target Fix from upstream is backported & built for 5.2 in $ brew latest-pkg dist-5E-qu-candidate virt-manager Build Tag Built by ---------------------------------------- -------------------- ---------------- virt-manager-0.5.3-3.el5 dist-5E-qu-candidate berrange Requesting z-stream. BZ was already cloned by mistake. We will take care of duping it when the new bz is created... *** Bug 436279 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Is this the same as http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=2516 ? Gianluca, I think so. That was caused by a HAL bug I believe. The problem was caused by the recent DBus security errata which caused various DBus API calls to be rejected. We had to change the way we handled DBus in virt-manager *** Bug 440482 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** An advisory has been issued which should help the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For more information on the solution and/or where to find the updated files, please follow the link below. You may reopen this bug report if the solution does not work for you. http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2008-0480.html |
Description of problem: Using virt-manager UI to create a paravirtual guest there are no available network devices under "Shared physical device" option. Only "Virtual network" option is possible. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): virt-manager-0.5.3-2.el5 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start virt-manager 2. Create new guest and navigate to network settings screen 3. Choose "Shared physical device" option Actual results: No devices present. Install can't continue Expected results: Device xenbr0 is present and can be chosen.
