Hi this is permission problem that stomp me. I don't know which combination of groups and users also file permission is right. Virt-manager will not read ISO end create virtual machine. I'm using fedora 28 with kernel 4.17.14-202.fc28.x86_64 all up to date software,also my user is member of this groups 36(kvm),107(qemu),981(libvirt) Please help.
Cain regards Chris

Have you tried chown'ing the file for group libvirt?

@nowornever , The problem seems to be related with qemu, for some permission reason can't traverse partitions so I can start the system only if I use the default storage in /var/lib/libvirt/images and I put also the .iso there.
