without xen support. What does
virsh --version=long
say? Also, are you sure libvirtd is running?

Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
Eric,
Here is the output:
# virsh --version=long
Virsh command line tool of libvirt 0.9.10
See web site at http://libvirt.org/
Compiled with support for:
Hypervisors: Xen QEmu/KVM UML OpenVZ VirtualBox LXC Test
Networking: Remote Daemon Network Bridging Nwfilter VirtualPort
Storage: Dir Filesystem SCSI Multipath iSCSI LVM
Miscellaneous: SELinux Secrets Debug
It seems that it does support Xen.
I am not sure if libvirtd is running so I use the following command to start it:
[root@XenTester srv]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/libvirtd start
But the same error is still there.
Am I using the right way to start libvirtd service? Are there any other possible reasons of this error?
Thanks,
