hi Peter,
If it wasn't compiled with VBox support, it would not say this:
Compiled with support for:
Hypervisors: QEMU/KVM LXC UML Xen LibXL OpenVZ VMWare *VirtualBox* Test
Furthermore, checking in the comments of the link, I find it is a
duplicate of this one:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/1103721 Which
clearly states that it is fixed and as in raring. I'm on trusty right now...
Regards,
Julian Zhou

Hi I am trying to add a virtualbox domain to my virsh
installation, I get:
error: Failed to define domain from Ondria.xml

virsh is compiled with VirtualBox support so I'm confused:
Virsh -V >> Virsh command line tool of libvirt 1.2.2
See web site athttp://libvirt.org/
Compiled with support for:
Hypervisors: QEMU/KVM LXC UML Xen LibXL OpenVZ VMWare VirtualBox Test
Networking: Remote Network Bridging Interface netcf Nwfilter
VirtualPort
Storage: Dir Disk Filesystem SCSI Multipath iSCSI LVM RBD Sheepdog
Miscellaneous: Daemon Nodedev AppArmor Secrets Debug Readline
Modular.
After some insight, I decided to run it like this instead: " virsh
-c vbox:///session create Ondria.xml"
Now I get:
error: failed to connect to the hypervisor
error: internal error: unable to initialize VirtualBox driver API
So, after further insight, I ran "export
VBOX_APP_HOME=/usr/lib/virtualbox" and tried again. Same error as
above. (/usr/lib/virtualbox is where VBoxCPCOMC.so lies and I'm
told the reason for the above error is it cannot find that file in
any "normal" location. Help? It should be noted I installed
VirtualBox-5.0 directly from the VBox Repo for Ubuntu 14.04LTS
not sure if it help: Ubuntu libvirt's driver for Virtualbox is
disabled by default:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/667076
So...u may have do recompile it as follow:
