Description Matthew Booth 2010-05-27 09:46:39 UTC
Description of problem:
virt-manager creates new directory storage pools with permissions 700, owned by root. qemu started by libvirt, running as user qemu, is not able to read the contents of this directory, so any domain with storage in the new pool will not start.

Changing the permissions to 711, the same as /var/lib/libvirt/images, allows domains to start.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
virt-manager-0.8.4-1.fc13.noarch

Comment 1 Cole Robinson 2010-05-27 14:13:08 UTC
What libvirt version are you using?

Comment 2 Matthew Booth 2010-05-27 14:59:17 UTC
libvirt-0.8.1-1.fc13.x86_64

Comment 3 Cole Robinson 2010-05-27 19:30:22 UTC
Hmm, is this definitely the case with that libvirt version? restart libvirtd and all that? I thought this was fixed upstream.

virt-manager doesn't explicitly set permissions when creating the default pool, libvirt might be doing it by accident (we previously had an issue with owner/group like this). Reassigning to rawhide/libvirt since you are using rawvirt packages.

Comment 4 Bug Zapper 2010-07-30 11:43:31 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 14 development cycle.
Changing version to '14'.
