There is a bug n the xen package that gets downloaded with yum. Just revert back to the xen package in the rpm dir in the fc5 distro and it will work. The key to finding out if it's fixed is to see if xen_install.py is present on the system.

But there were some serious IO bottlenecks, so I figured maybe the new kernel release would help out.... quite the opposite. Now, I cannot start any domUs. Here's a snippet from my xend.log when I try to start the xend service: [2006-05-11 08:47:19 xend] ERROR (SrvDaemon:299) Exception starting xend ((111, 'Connection refused')) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/xen/xend/server/ SrvDaemon.py", line 293, in run servers = SrvServer.create() File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/xen/xend/server/ SrvServer.py", line 106, in create root.putChild('xend', SrvRoot()) File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/xen/xend/server/ SrvRoot.py", line 40, in __init__ self.get(name) File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/xen/web/SrvDir.py", line 82, in get val = val.getobj() File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/xen/web/SrvDir.py", line 52, in getobj self.obj = klassobj() File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/xen/xend/server/ SrvDomainDir.py", line 39, in __init__ self.xd = XendDomain.instance() File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/xen/xend/XendDomain.py", line 550, in instance inst.init() File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/xen/xend/XendDomain.py", line 70, in init xstransact.Mkdir(VMROOT) File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/xen/xend/xenstore/ xstransact.py", line 317, in Mkdir complete(path, lambda t: t.mkdir(*args)) File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/xen/xend/xenstore/ xstransact.py", line 323, in complete t = xstransact(path) File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/xen/xend/xenstore/ xstransact.py", line 20, in __init__ self.transaction = xshandle().transaction_start() File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/xen/xend/xenstore/ xsutil.py", line 18, in xshandle xs_handle = xen.lowlevel.xs.xs() RuntimeError: (111, 'Connection refused') Any ideas? -- Fedora-xen@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-xen
