Open Stack

Arindam,

What happens if you 'apt-get remove python-guestfs' and try? I'd expect it to fallback to nbdmount.

Subject: [Openstack] Error mounting disk with libguestfs (child process died unexpectedly)

Hi,
I have a working Openstack Grizzly setup with nova-network on Scientific Linux. As, SL comes with a old qemu:

qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.355.el6_4.6.x86_64

I am trying to upgrade it to qemu-1.7.0 from source.

The configuration output<http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=geEEXm79>.

As, openstack use /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm to start up VM, i linked
qemu-kvm to qemu-system-x86_64:
ls -l /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 33 Feb 19 15:25 /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -> /usr/local/bin/qemu-system-x86_64

But when I try to start VM, I get following error:

WARNING nova.virt.disk.api [req-7dfd6cf1-db21-403d-abbf-ccb5f0273a6a
b829b65d0675416198f9e4838b5009e2 9a2e060772204260b53b52ea1c12db97]

(Error mounting /var/lib/nova/instances/07c0898e-7d75-448d-b4fe-2c37f681b846/disk

The full error log is here<http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=FD8N47mk>.
