Bug Description

Binary package hint: virt-manager

My VMs fail to start.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/engine.py", line 814, in run_domain
    vm.startup()
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/domain.py", line 1286, in startup
    self._backend.create()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/libvirt.py", line 333, in create
    if ret == -1: raise libvirtError ('virDomainCreate() failed', dom=self)
libvirtError: internal error Process exited while reading console log output: libvir: Security Labeling error : internal error error calling aa_change_profile()

This may be a kernel issue. I do not encounter the error if I run:
linux-image-2.6.35-5-server 2.6.35-5.6 amd64

The issue is with any newer kernel.

For me it helped not using a raw disk image.
I used qcow. But the harddisk has to be set up manually.

Chad, can you confirm whether this is still happening for you with an updated maverick
host?

If not, then this in fact likely was a duplicate of 599450, but if so then pls report the
permissions on the directory in which you keep your VM disks.

My issue is resolved. Its was a while ago, but I believe kernel 2.6.35-13 and newer fixed the issue, like noted in bug #599450

I thought this bug would close as a dupe: sorry I didn't report back.

I appreciate the follow up.

Hi, I have just installed maveric on 64bit.
Kernel is this:

> # uname -a
> Linux nirvana 2.6.35-25-generic #44-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jan 21 17:40:44 UTC 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I have copied xml config of a qemu-kvm virtural machine and the corresponding disk image file from a
ubuntu 9.10 install, and now I get the same error as above:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/engine.py", line 814, in run_domain
    vm.startup()
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/domain.py", line 1296, in startup
    self._backend.create()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/libvirt.py", line 333, in create
    if ret == -1: raise libvirtError ('virDomainCreate() failed', dom=self)
libvirtError: internal error Process exited while reading console log output: libvir: Security Labeling error : internal error error calling aa_change_profile()

Any hints would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers - Michael
