[libvirt] problem connecting to vbox

[anuj rampal]

Hi,

I have installed VBOX 3.0.12 on fc12 which is running libvirt-0.7.1.
Now when i try to connect using virsh using uri "virsh -c
vbox+tcp:///system"

this is the error i get:

error: internal error unable to initialize VirtualBox driver API
error: failed to connect to the hypervisor

But it connects successfully with this ur:
"virsh -c vbox:///system"

i have also qemu installed on the same machine and connects successfully
with uri "virsh -c qemu+tcp:///system"

Libvirt is listening on tcp port:16509

any idea what am i doing wrong?

Here is a detailed message:
