Hello Devs. After upgrading to libvirt-6.2.0-r1 this morning "/etc/init.d/libvirt start" is not working anymore. I took a closer look and i thought i had the solution because "/etc/init.d/virtlogd" isn't working anymore either. The virtlogd daemon is running but "/etc/init.d/virtlogd status" gives "stopped" The pidfile is correct and contains the right Pid Number: https://nopaste.fluffycloud.de/?b611024d6b200d34#6caP5Dr1Ktt8JSbDWk1fVnsypuNrWkn78tPVXdoj4Jc9 If i commnt "need virtlogd" in /etc/init.d/livirtd i get the same result. What puzzles me is even downgrading to libvirt-6.1.0 does not solve the issue so it must be some kind of openrc issue? Here the output of "strace /etc/init.d/virtlogd status" if that helps. https://nopaste.fluffycloud.de/?610bd59980cb90c6#26kshTfj3ojYJ9uWtzJwJ2ynU8raKYmEvuBMBgXfLAC7 Reproducible: Always sys2 ~ #

I have the same issue, but downgrading to 6.0.0-r3 (current stable keyworded) fixed it for me.
I can confirm this. I have the same problem.
Exactly same problem here
Same problem here, downgrading to libvirt-6.1.0 works. dev-python/libvirt-python will block downgrading from 6.2.0 but can be managed.
I see a number of upstream changes between 6.1.0 and 6.2.0 with respect to pidfile handling that likely broke our openrc init scripts. I unfortunately missed thatn one, because I am not using openrc any more. Time to spin up the openrc lxc container I guess. I will update the init scripts for 6.2.0-r2 in a moment.

Work around this issue by not using the "-d" option (keeping the daemon in foreground) and let start-stop-daemon do double-forking ("-b" option).

@Matthias Maier, Thank you for the quick response. I can't talk for the others but if you need someone to test, please feel free to contact me.
Please do not hasten to close this bug. I still get the same problem even after using the new configs in dispatch-conf. start libvirtd * start-stop-daemon: /usr/sbin/virtlogd is already running * ERROR: virtlogd failed to start * ERROR: cannot start libvirtd as virtlogd would not start start virtlogd * start-stop-daemon: /usr/sbin/virtlogd is already running * ERROR: virtlogd failed to start cat /var/log/libvirt/virtlogd 2020-04-10 19:50:22.521+0000: 20488: info : libvirt version: 6.2.0 2020-04-10 19:50:22.521+0000: 20488: info : hostname: maha.sukha.dhatu 2020-04-10 19:50:22.521+0000: 20488: error : main:851 : Failed to fork as daemon: No such file or directory 2020-04-11 09:40:48.289+0000: 3920: info : libvirt version: 6.2.0 2020-04-11 09:40:48.289+0000: 3920: info : hostname: maha.sukha.dhatu 2020-04-11 09:40:48.289+0000: 3920: error : main:851 : Failed to fork as daemon: No such file or directory cat /run/virtlogd.pid 3922maha /etc/init.d # For me downgrading to stable did NOT do the trick nod did it adding the start() function... Am i doing anything wrong?
I resolved this by chown root:libvirt /run/virtlogd.pid and by deleting the pid number inside this file. I am not sure which one did the trick but i can confirm that BOTH virtlogd and libvirtd now WORK! Thanks a lot
