Problem connecting libvirtd socket #40

Closed lord-kyron closed 5 years ago

lord-kyron commented 5 years ago

HI @subuk I am having problem Error: hostinfo failed: cannot acquire libvirt connection: cannot open libvirt connection: virError(Code=38, Domain=7, Message='Failed to connect socket to '/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock': Permission denied') I am running ubuntu 18.04 and installed via the Ubuntu 18.04 repo. I am not getting which user must I give permissions to the libvirtd socket? If I am using the default admin/admin I should create such user and give him rights to the socket or? Please, explain! Thanks!

Hello, you need system user vmango, try this:

sudo usermod -aG libvirt vmango

And restart the service:

sudo systemctl restart vmango

Thank you! That solved the problem! Maybe it is good to add the info which exact user needs to be added in the group to the install procedure :)
