Hi Community,

I encountered an error while launching the virtual machine manger. I
believe that all services have been started including libvirtd, xend,
xencommons, etc. But not sure the reason about this error. Here is the
error information:


Error starting Virtual Machine Manager: Failed to contact configuration
server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking
for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See
http://projects.gnome.org/gconf/ for information. (Details -  1: Failed to
get connection to session: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes
include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus
security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the
network connection was broken.)

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virt-manager.py", line 383, in <module>
    main()
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virt-manager.py", line 315, in main
    config = virtManager.config.vmmConfig(appname, appversion, glade_dir)
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/config.py", line 96, in __init__
    self.conf.add_dir(self.conf_dir, gconf.CLIENT_PRELOAD_NONE)
GError: Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are
that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS
locks due to a system crash. See http://projects.gnome.org/gconf/ for

Does anyone have any ideas on this error?

Thanks in advance,
