[libvirt-users] getting an error when installing LIBVIRT.

[cooldharma06]

hi

thanks for your information. i installed libvirt 1.1.2 as per your
suggestion.

Installation commands are as follows:

./configure --prefix=/usr --localstatedir=/var --sysconfdir=/etc
--with-xen=yes --with-libxl=yes
make
make install

now i am getting the following error:

virsh # list
error: failed to connect to the hypervisor
error: no valid connection
error: Failed to connect socket to
'/usr/local/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock': No such file or directory

Guide me to solve this errror.

thanks & regards,
cooldharma06.
