Fixed for me using: touch /etc/apparmor.d/disable/usr.sbin.libvirtd and then reboot. Also had a non-existent CDROM defined under the Details section which I removed. I don't think it had anything to do with the original problem. I removed the file created above and rebooted and things were back

I could manage to start a kvm, but for some reason I do not understand there is no output on vnc. The only error message I receive is from kvm trying to access a tap device I did not create before starting kvm. But this error doesn't seem to be fatal at all. I am now sure the error is libvirtd

This breaks kvm/qemu complete, since I cant start old, existing domains any more and I cant create new ones. After restarting a host I cant start any guest any more. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to libvirt in Ubuntu.
