Public bug reported: I'm using the Ubuntu Cloud Archive and I'm encountering a incomplete libvirt AppArmor profile.
My libvirtd.log is showing lines like this: 2013-07-24 13:41:35.254+0000: 2995: warning : virAuditSend:135 : Failed to send audit message virt=kvm op=start reason=booted vm="r-1163-VM" uuid=1060bdc3-d77a-35f3-a8ef-696c0aef0b42 vm-pid=5121: Operation not permitted This is due to "audit_write" missing as a capability in the AppArmor profile for libvirtd. The simple fix is to add this line: capability audit_write In /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.libvirtd This is with libvirt 1.0.6 from the Havana repository.
