Re: [Qemu-discuss] [problem] QEMU-GA & Windows 10

[Frank Sfalanga Jr .]

Now the channel is there and the VM is booting but the QEMU-GA still
will not start.  It is failing with the same (original) error:

------------------------------------------------------

Windows could not start the QEMU Guest Agent service on local computer.

Error 1053: the service did not respond to the start or control request
in a timely fashion.


-------------------------------------------------------

Following Dominique's directions, I was able to get past the "Failed to
bind socket: Permission denied errors" below using information I found
here:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/1407434

"WORKAROUND for those who want to go on with MV creation while this bug
is valid :

0. do not quit virt-manager vm creation

1. locate apparmor profile for your VM with
ls-ltr /etc/apparmor.d/libvirt/libvirt-*
(the long string with numbers is your vm UUID - look inside to find your
vm name)

2. set this apparmor profil in complain mode
#
aa-complain 
/etc/apparmor.d/libvirt/libvirt-73aa79f1-0023-4e37-8001-5be78e884348 (for 
example)

3. go on with vm creation - it will succeed"

Now the Windows 10 VM is booting up and working fine.  Also, the channel
appears to be created too:

address@hidden:/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/channel/target# ls -l
total 0
srwxr-xr-x 1 libvirt-qemu kvm 0 Jul 25 17:16
Windows10.org.qemu.quest_agent.0

--------------------------------------------------

As I said above, I'm still not able to get the QEMU-GA to start,
although the VSS starts fine.
