[Xen-devel] Xen 2.0.5 - Xend doesn't start

[Charles COLLIN <collin_fsb@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I installed today xen 2.0.5 from source (i'm running a LFS system).
This system provides python 2.4 (in /usr/lib/python2.4/).
There were no problem during compilation of Xen itself (python code was
installed to /usr/lib/python/xen/), but during compilation of dependent
packages, i've had to hack a bit:

Packages installed:

° bridge-utils-1.0.6 : build OK
° iproute2-2.6.9-050209 : build OK
° ZopeInterface-3.0.1 : build OK (at least no error message)

° Twisted-2.0.0a3 : starts the problems,
./configure finds python but doesn't
want to use it as it expects 2.3.4 -> forced using 2.4 (./configure
--with-python /usr/bin/python). it installed to
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/twisted

° ZopeX3-3.0.0 :
didn't know if it really was required, but installed it, in
/opt/ZopeX3 as it didn't want /usr as prefix.
Moved /opt/ZopeX3/* to /usr
(especially /opt/ZopeX3/lib/* to /usr/lib/python2.4).
still i don't like this kind of installation.

Tried to start xend: complains that it can't find the twisted package.
--> Symlinked /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/twisted to 
/usr/lib/python2.4/twisted
Retried to start xend: now complains about missing TwistedWeb package!
OK, downloaded TwistedWeb-0.5.0a3 and installed it.

Tried Again xend: complains twisted.protocols.http is deprecated in
xend/server/SrvBase.py, should use twisted.web.http

Jesus !!! Recompiled Xen tools and installed.

Now, when i start xend i get no errors messages, but apparently it 
doesn't start:
root@clientFSB-19:/home/charles/VIRTUALIZATION# xm list
(111, 'Connection refused')
Error: Error connecting to xend, is xend running?

However:

root@clientFSB-19:/home/charles/VIRTUALIZATION# ps aux
...
root       751  0.0  0.1  3108  792 ?        S    19:55   0:00 xfrd
...

Any opinion about this?
