This is what happens when I try to start the ovirt-guest-agent in Ubuntu-Mate 16.04 Xenial, any ideas ?

The problem is here that the log file has not the correct access rights. it needs to be rw for the ovirtagent user. Long story short, I will give it a look and hope that we can get this fixed asap. Until then chown ovirtagent:ovirtagent -R /var/log/ovirt-guest-agent should do the trick and then systemctl start ovirt-guest-agent HTH
