January 1, 20242 yr Looking for some help with an issue I'm running into after upgrading the some of the hardware on my unraid box (mobo, cpu, ram, cache drive) I was able to get my docker environment back up and running but not my VMs. I attempted to point the VM manager to where the old .img files are with no luck. I did more fiddling around by copying my old libvirt.img file over the new one. That is where I started making things worse and now i receive the "Libvirt Service failed to start." error when going to the VMS tab. Attached is the diag file, thanks so much in advance for any help i receive. tower-diagnostics-20231231-2056.zip
January 1, 20242 yr Solution Libvirt image you are using is corrupt, you will need to recreate a new one or restore a good backup.
January 1, 20242 yr Author Thank you! I deleted the Libvirt image and it's working again. For anyone else that comes across this later, here's how to recreate the Libvirt file: Go to Settings -> VM Manager Turn on Advanced View Disable VMs Click the delete checkbox by the Libvirt path Save Enable VM again
