Description of problem: There are times when trying to delete a flubbed domain install when file->delete does nothing. Clicking on the delete button on the bottom does result in the domain being removed from the list of domains. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rhel5.1b0 How reproducible: intermittent. Sometimes works, sometimes doesn't Steps to Reproduce: 1. create a virtual domain 2. try to delete it using the menu file->delete 3. Actual results: often, nothing happens Expected results: The domain should disappear from the list of domains. Additional info:
I verified that this remains an issue on both x86_64 and ia64, at least. Here is the sequence I used: 1. virt-install --hvm --name=hvm2 ... 2. at the screen where it asks how to partition (remove linux partitions, use default layout, etc) I switched to another terminal on dom0 and ran "xm destroy hvm1" 3. in virt-manager, the machine is listed as "Shutoff". I selected it, then chose Edit->Delete Machine. Nothing happened. 4. I clicked the [Delete] button at the bottom of the window and it was deleted as expected. I did this on both ia64 and x86_64 with the same result. python-virtinst-0.103.0-3.el5 libvirt-python-0.2.3-9.el5 libvirt-0.2.3-9.el5 virt-manager-0.4.0-3.el5
Still an issue with rhel5.1(ga)
I haven't been able to reproduce this in 5.1 or 5.2. If in 5.1, can you run virt-manager from the command line and see if an error is thrown when the delete fails? If you can still reproduce this on 5.2, can you check ~/.virt-manager/virt-manager.log? Thanks.
I've tried this without success in rhel5.2, so I'll consider it fixed unless it shows up again. There have been many changes to virt-manager in 5.2 and I have to assume based on recent testing, that it has been fixed.
