From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.8.1.14) Gecko/20080416 Fedora/2.0.0.14-1.fc8 Firefox/2.0.0.14 Description of problem: I am running fc8 X86_64 with the lastest package updates. When I try to create an FC9 paravirtualized x86_64 guest, the guest crashes immediately after domain creation. The process creates only the xen-hotplug.log ("Nothing to flush") and the qemu-dm.7712.log (a vncpasswd error). The ~/.virt-manager/virt-manager.log contains more information (attached). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xen-3.1.2-2.fc8 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start virtual manager on an fc8 x86_64 system. 2. Specify an fc9_x86 os url. 3. Specify the other values and click finish. Actual Results: The domain build appears to finish but the guest goes immediately to the shutoff state. Expected Results: The guest should have started, a console should have opened, and the installation process should begin. Additional info:
Created attachment 306195 [details] Log of failed fc9 x86_64 guest creation on fc8.
When I click run on the shutoff image (in the virtual machine manager) I get this error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/engine.py", line 472, in run_domain vm.startup() File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/domain.py", line 379, in startup self.vm.create() File "/usr/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/libvirt.py", line 240, in create if ret == -1: raise libvirtError ('virDomainCreate() failed', dom=self) libvirtError: virDomainCreate() failed POST operation failed: (xend.err "Boot loader didn't return any data!")
I have successfully created an fc9 x86 paravirtualized guest.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 9. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '9'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 9 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-07-10. Fedora 9 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
