[libvirt-users] Error starting Virtual Machine Manager: Failed to contact configuration server...

[Allen Qiu]

Hi all!
Do you have any idea about the following error message from virt-manager. I was trying to start it with "sudo virt-manager". Do you think I can fix this by simply restarting libvirtd?
Regards,
Allen

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: Could not send message to GConf daemon: 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.)
