Description of problem: Installed kvm and virt-manager using the instructions found here: http://www.techotopia.com/index.php/Installing_and_Configuring_Fedora_KVM_Virtualization Using virt-manager in an attempt to create an XP VM, I get to the final configuration step and when I press OK, i get the following error: Unable to complete install '<type 'exceptions.UnboundLocalError'> local variable 'verr' referenced before assignment Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/create.py", line 722, in do_install dom = guest.start_install(False, meter = meter) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/virtinst/Guest.py", line 730, in start_install self._prepare_install(meter) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/virtinst/FullVirtGuest.py", line 314, in _prepare_install distro = self.os_distro) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/virtinst/DistroManager.py", line 264, in prepare self._prepare_cdrom(guest, distro, meter) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/virtinst/DistroManager.py", line 215, in _prepare_cdrom transient=True) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/virtinst/VirtualDisk.py", line 135, in __init__ self.__validate_params() File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/virtinst/VirtualDisk.py", line 369, in __validate_params self.__check_if_path_managed() File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/virtinst/VirtualDisk.py", line 348, in __check_if_path_managed "connection: %s" % (self.path, verr)) UnboundLocalError: local variable 'verr' referenced before assignment ' Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): LSB Version: :core-3.1-ia32:core-3.1-noarch:core-3.2-ia32:core-3.2-noarch:desktop-3.1-ia32:desktop-3.1-noarch:desktop-3.2-ia32:desktop-3.2-noarch Distributor ID: Fedora Description: Fedora release 9.92 (Rawhide) Release: 9.92 Codename: Rawhide Linux Kernel 2.6.27.3-27.rc1.fc10.i686 virt-manager-0.6.0-2.fc10.i386 libvirt-0.4.6-3.fc10.i386 kvm-74-4.fc10.i386 qemu-0.9.1-10.fc10.i386 Steps to Reproduce: $ su - $ yum install kvm qemu virt-manager $ virt-manager (Enter Password) New VM - Default/ WinXP/4G HDD/512RAM/1CPU OK -> Error: Unable to complete install '<type 'exceptions.UnboundLocalError'> local variable 'verr' referenced before assignment Actual results: Error Unable to complete install '<type 'exceptions.UnboundLocalError'> local variable 'verr' referenced before assignment Expected results: VM Creation Notes/Observations I would like to know if I missed a step in setup or if this is in fact a bug. I do not see any groups relating to virtualization. Looking at some instructions I used when installing an older version of virt-manager on Ubuntu, I had to also install package 'vde2' and add myself to the groups kvm, libvirtd and vde2-net.
Hi, this is already fixed with the latest python-virtinst version in rawhide. Please see the bug this will be duped as. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 467228 ***
