Vlad,

You also need to install the ruby-bindings for libvirt if you haven't already done so (I just noticed this in Fog's libvirt code):

gem install libvirt

Thanks,

 starce log  indicates  the command  cannot find libvirt.so and libvirt.rb in the /usr/lib64/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/ folders .

Vlad,

It looks like knife-kvm has Fog as a dependency, which itself relies upon the libvirt library to work properly.  You should be able to download this using your OS package manager.  For example (on Ubuntu):

sudo apt-get install libvirt-dev

Thanks,

Hi , I added have the following kvm knife configuration in my ~/.chef/knife.rb

file :

knife[:kvm_host] = "10.10.10.1"

knife[:kvm_username] = "root"

knife[:kvm_password] = "password"

When I test this command the knife looks for local KVM :

# knife kvm vm list

Connecting to KVM host 127.0.0.1 (ssh)...

ERROR: LoadError: no such file to load -- libvirt

Wrong config ?
