Unable to build kvm box

[meetom]

Newbie here. I have setup Vagrant and Veewee running on my Ubuntu 14.04 machine. I have successfully built a vbox Ubuntu image using VeeWee and booted in Vagrant.

I get the following error message when trying to build a KVM image. root@builder00:/vagrant/# veewee kvm build centos-65 There was a problem opening a connection to libvirt: libvirt is not a recognized compute provider

There doesn't seem to be very much info regarding this problem. Would any be able to offer some advise?

Vagrant has been installed from package and VeeWee was installed via gem install. root@builder00:/vagrant# vagrant -v Vagrant 1.7.2 root@builder00:/vagrant# vagrant plugin list vagrant-libvirt (0.0.30) vagrant-share (1.1.3, system) veewee (0.4.5.1) root@builder00:/vagrant# gem list | grep libvirt ruby-libvirt (0.5.2) root@builder00:/vagrant# gem list | grep veewee veewee (0.4.5.1)

root@builder00:/vagrant# ruby -v ruby 1.9.3p484 (2013-11-22 revision 43786) [x86_64-linux]

Thanks!

try that https://github.com/jedi4ever/veewee/blob/master/doc/kvm.md

[meetom]

Hi mpapis, I have gone through that doc. I made sure libvirt and libvirt-dev were installed and that the kernel can run KVM. Libvirt seems to be running fine as I can create a test pool for images.

Is there any specific I should be looking at?

I have Veewee working on both RHEL and Ubuntu. I think the problem is with fog. Fog version 1.30.0 moved libvirt into a new gem called fog-libvirt. However, I couldn't get Veewee to work with Fog 1.30.0 or 1.31.0. See release notes: https://github.com/fog/fog/releases

I ended up using an older Fog (1.27.0) and Veewee is working.

I have the exact same problem.

Fog 1.27.0 not working for me. here is the error:

I didn't use rvm. I'm using rbenv with Ruby version 2.2.2. Here are my Gemfile and Gemfile.lock. You can build the same environment using bundler install --deployment"

BUNDLED WITH 1.10.4

[strzibny]

Came across this today, you need older fog and fog-aws at 0.1.0. That worked for me. This should be fixed and fog-libvirt specified in the Gemfile.

[kelleyk]

Changing the kvm group in the Gemfile to

group :kvm do
  gem "ruby-libvirt"
  gem "fog", "~> 1.27.0"
  gem "fog-aws", "= 0.1.0"
  gem "fog-libvirt"
end

fixed this for me (after a bundle update for fog and fog-aws and another bundle install, obviously).
