#

So all of a sudden my virtual machine manager won't connect to my libvirt does anyone know how to resolve this issue and get my virtual machines backed up and running again

topaz seal Jan 5, 2024, 7:32 PM

#

sudo systemctl status libvirtd

#

what does that say

azure frigate Jan 5, 2024, 7:32 PM

#

topaz seal Jan 5, 2024, 7:33 PM

#

or start it I guess

#

but, what does status say?

#

does your journalctl say anything about it?

azure frigate Jan 5, 2024, 7:34 PM

#

Here

topaz seal Jan 5, 2024, 7:37 PM

#

try to start it again now?

#

looks like you might have tried to start it too many times too quickly?

topaz seal Jan 5, 2024, 7:45 PM

azure frigate Just now by going into dolphin file manager and clicking mount on the disk drive

do you want them mounted with every boot?

#

if yes, make an fstab entry for them

azure frigate Jan 5, 2024, 8:07 PM

Yeah wouldn't mind that it would actually do me a huge benefit

topaz seal Jan 5, 2024, 8:10 PM

yeah do that and then I think it'll start

it keeps looking for this, is that not mounted?

#

Jan 06 11:05:46 overlord libvirtd[735]: cannot open directory '/run/media/ryan/Seagate Hub': No such file or directory

#

can you show me your lsblk -f and cat /etc/fstab

azure frigate Jan 6, 2024, 11:14 AM

#

topaz seal Jan 6, 2024, 11:16 AM

#

azure frigate

can you mount your seagate hub to /run/media/ryan/seagate hub in your fstab?

azure frigate Jan 6, 2024, 11:17 AM

#

what is the command to do it because i never did it before

topaz seal Jan 6, 2024, 11:17 AM

#

you're adding an entry to /etc/fstab

azure frigate Jan 6, 2024, 11:19 AM

#

/etc/fstab/: Not a directory am i i doing something wrong?

topaz seal Jan 6, 2024, 11:21 AM

#

show me cat /etc/fstab

#

not /etc/fstab/ but /etc/fstab

azure frigate Jan 6, 2024, 11:23 AM

#

topaz seal Jan 6, 2024, 11:25 AM

#

yeah so add in the relevant lines, remember this is exfat for the file system, not vfat or ext4, and just do defaults 0 2 for the numbers at the end

#

and make it the last entry

azure frigate Jan 6, 2024, 11:34 AM

#

@topaz seal ok managed to do that but now it says something else

topaz seal Jan 6, 2024, 11:37 AM

#

reboot and try again now

azure frigate Jan 6, 2024, 11:38 AM

#

Oh yeah about that do you ever come across a message when you try to restart or shut off but you get this

topaz seal Jan 6, 2024, 11:48 AM

#

that's interesting

azure frigate Jan 6, 2024, 11:49 AM

#

Is there anyway that I can resolve this or should I just do a hard reset and boot back in

topaz seal Jan 6, 2024, 11:50 AM

#

I'd just try and do a hard reset now, see what happens

#

maybe it's worth reinstalling libvirt if it's still an issue after restarting

azure frigate Jan 6, 2024, 11:50 AM

#

Ok

topaz seal Jan 6, 2024, 11:51 AM

#

I don't know why it seems to need your seagate hub to be mounted, so that's something I'd like to look at anyway

#

is it something you've passed through to your VM?

azure frigate Jan 6, 2024, 11:52 AM

#

I tried GPU passthrough but my windows system crash and ever since it's been saying not connected or stuck saying qemu/kvm-connecting

azure frigate Jan 6, 2024, 12:35 PM

#

@topaz seal after the reset it went back to saying this

topaz seal Jan 6, 2024, 1:40 PM

#

what is libvirtd saying now?

#

can you close down kvm and then reinstall libvirt?

topaz seal Jan 6, 2024, 2:44 PM

#

I believe there is likely a syntax error here:
