Looking for help with "Libvirt Service failed to start."

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.

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

So uh... I did this and it uh... removed all my VM's...

 

Probably should throw that in there. :P'
