Description John Snow 2015-04-16 19:24:50 UTC
Description of problem:

Virt-manager will happily chug along creating a new VM for you with no network with no indication, warning, error or otherwise that it was not able to set up or configure a network for you.

Relevant bug is BZ #867546 -- this bug is reproducible generally before the first libvirtd restart.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Fedora 22 RC2
virt-manager.noarch 1.1.0-7.git6dbe19bd8.fc22

How reproducible:

100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install virt-manager & friends via "sudo dnf groupinstall virtualization"
2. sudo virt-manager &
3. Install a new VM using the new VM wizard
4. Choose all the defaults and accept. A windows 7 ultimate N ISO was used in this case.
5. virsh dumpxml mynewvm > mynewvm.xml

Actual results:

<network> configuration session is missing, with no indication in the wizard during installation time.

Expected results:

A warning or error informing the user that (for whatever reason), the Network subsystem could not be configured.

Comment 2 Cole Robinson 2015-11-25 19:18:39 UTC
Backporting this is a bit of a pain because it was preceded by a bunch of code re-org in that area, so just moving to f23 where we will get this with the rebase
