The libvirt daemon log extract from the failure. Only 137 lines.
Typo in the above text. It should say: "... or is built on an OS **WITHOUT** PolicyKit (Mac OS X), ..." There hasn't been any activity on this for over 3 years, yet this is still a problem. I was attempting to use Vagrant from my Mac to a RHEL7.1 Workstation using libvirt, but it appears that I cannot, because of this bug. Is there any hope? Is there a work around? Can we at least update the documentation so users like me don't fight this for a couple hours? Sorry this never received a timely response. I've sent a patch upstream now: http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2016-April/msg00932.html Upstream now: commit 84371303d8302e59e535b4ca2d7e2d5f43d7679e Author: Cole Robinson <crobinso> Date: Thu Apr 14 14:58:40 2016 -0400 remote: Don't reject remote polkit if client lacks support |
