Hi List,

I use Debian Squeeze and I installed the Hypervisor 4.0
package.
After that I compiled Jeremys dom0 Kernel version
2.6.32.35

I can boot the kernel (I guess everything is fine there),
but xend is not starting during the boot..
I receive following error message:

#/etc/init.d/xend start
Starting Xen daemons: xenfs xenstored xenconsoled
xendFATAL: Failed to initialize dom0 state: Invalid
argument
It all depends on your config:

You are working with init scripts from Debian Squeeze and it expects all
CONIFIG_XEN_* values to be =y (static), except these

$ grep -i xen ./Desktop/config-2.6.32-5-xen-amd64 | grep =m
CONFIG_XEN_BLKDEV_FRONTEND=m
CONFIG_NETXEN_NIC=m
CONFIG_XEN_NETDEV_FRONTEND=m
CONFIG_XEN_DEV_EVTCHN=m
CONFIG_XEN_BLKDEV_TAP=m
CONFIG_XENFS=m
CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR_XEN=m

Compare your config values with these and you might find a difference. Always 
remember that that /proc/xen must be mounted in fstab in Squeeze.

BTW, did you consider building Xen from source and using the kernel 
2.6.32-5-xen-amd64 included in Squeeze?



Hi,


I checked that out, everything is like you wrote but it´s still not starting.
My xend-debug.log says:

[2011-03-31 09:30:44 2760] INFO (SrvDaemon:332) Xend Daemon started
[2011-03-31 09:30:44 2760] ERROR (SrvDaemon:349) Exception starting xend ((22, 'Invalid argument'))
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/xen-4.0/lib/python/xen/xend/server/SrvDaemon.py", line 335, in run
    xinfo = xc.xeninfo()
Error: (22, 'Invalid argument')
[2011-03-31 09:30:44 2759] INFO (SrvDaemon:220) Xend exited with status 1.


Do you have an idea what that could be?

Thank you very much
