I've installed Fedora 7, Xen 3.1 (from source), and virt-manager 0.4 (from
rpms). The machine is VMX/VT-x capable. I have managed to build and run a
paravirtualized Linux guest just fine. Now I want to build an HVM Linux
guest, but virt-manager tells me "unable to open a connection to the Xen
hypervisor/daemon." I've confirmed that both xend and libvirtd are running.
Here are the error details:
------------------->8------------------
Unable to open connection to hypervisor URI 'xen':
<class 'libvirt.libvirtError'> virConnectOpenReadOnly() failed
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/engine.py", line 68, in

if ret is None:raise libvirtError('virConnectOpenReadOnly() failed')
libvirtError: virConnectOpenReadOnly() failed
-------------------8<------------------
Can anyone see what I'm missing or what's broken? If not, what should I do
next to debug or fix this?
Thanks,
