Hi All,

I'm more or less a total newbie who is just getting used to transitioning from the GUI to the command line and I've run into a problem getting the configuration for vagrant to run (I'm doing a course on Udacity (Intro to Relational Databases) that requires these installations). I receive the following error message:

Error while connecting to libvirt: Error making a connection to libvirt URI qemu:///system?no_verify=1&keyfile=/home/secxos/.ssh/id_rsa: (VagrantPlugins::providerLibvirt::Errors::FogLibvirtConnectionError)
Call to virConnectOpen failed: Failed to connect socket to '/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock': No such file or directory
Error while connecting to libvirt: Error making a connection to libvirt URI qemu:///system?no_verify=1&keyfile=/home/secxos/.ssh/id_rsa
rt-sock': No such file or directory

So i guess a connection is not being made and a file is missing. Needless to say I'm struggling to understand half of this so if anyone who help or provide some useful pointers / explanations / solutions about what is going wrong that would be much appreciated. This is the full traceback:

All and any help would be much appreciated but please keep in mind....total newbie!!
 


This is beyond my paygrade but I can ask a couple of questions.

G'day and welcome to linux.org :)

Do you have a provider specified?

Do you have the provider set up?

Do you have VirtualBox installed, and if so, which version?

I have just Googled

linux Error while connecting to libvirt: Error making a connection to libvirt URI qemu:///system?no_verify=1&keyfile=/home/secxos/.ssh/id_rsart-sock': No such file or directory

... only about 5 entries, but one from Launchpad on bugs is revealing, also one from Ubuntu may assist.

Good luck
