[libvirt-users] virt-manager slow to connect, hangs on new host dialog

[martin f krafft]

Hello,

I am using virt-manager 0.9.4 on a Debian unstable system (libvirt
0.9.12) to connect to a libvirtd via SSH running on a Debian testing
system (also version 0.9.12), and I have a problem using
virt-manager, which first takes ages to connect, then freezes.

The SSH connection is top-quality, the hosts are next to each other
and connected by Gigabit Ethernet. virsh connections work fine.

Unfortunately, when I run virt-manager and connect to the host, the
host's capabilities are fetched very quickly (according to
virt-manager's debug output), but it then takes 20–30 seconds until
the connection is established.

Logging libvirtd with log_level=2 produces nothing useful. Hence
I tried with log_level=1, which is mayhem. Attached is the log
output from the moment I told virt-manager to connect until shortly
after the connection has been established. Maybe someone can figure
out what's going on? I cannot…

The next problem is that when I then try to create a host, I am
shown the dialog and can enter one or two characters into the name
field, then the GUI completely freezes, and so does libvirtd on the
other system (ctrl-c does not work anymore).

I have also captured this part of the session in a second log file,
which provides no clues for me.

Does anyone else know what might be going on?

Thanks,
