Public bug reported: Hi,
I found out that libvirtd will incorretly create a pid file even when it does not start up properly. Error ==== libvirtd start 20:04:43.882: error : qemudWritePidFile:494 : Failed to open pid file '/var/run/libvirtd.pid' : File exists Expected resolution ================ libvirtd should not create the pid file before it starts up successfully. Package version: 0.7.5-5ubuntu2 uname -a: Linux ip-xx-xx-xx-xx 2.6.32-305-ec2 #9-Ubuntu SMP Thu Apr 15 04:14:01 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux Related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/510658 , but the difference is that when libvirtd fails to start up cleanly, it should not have created the pid in the first place.
