[libvirt-users] Libvirt daemon is not getting started

[Varun Bhatnagar]

Hi,

Earlier I was having libvirt-0.7.5 but now I have installed 0.9.8 version 
of libvirt now.
I am trying to start libvirt daemon using the command below but daemon it 
is not getting started and the PID file is not getting created. Tried 
/usr/loval/sbin/libvirtd -d option too. In that case I am not getting any 
error but PID file is not getting created in this case too.

/usr/local/sbin/libvirtd

and I am also trying to connect to VMPlayer with the following URL but it 
is giving the following error message: 

virsh # connect vmplayer:///session
error: Failed to connect to the hypervisor
error: Failed to connect socket to 
'/usr/local/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock': No such file or directory

Is this because of the daemon, as it is not getting started or because of 
some other reason?

Can anybody suggest any solution for this. I am stuck from past few days 
and not able to find solution. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Varun
