[libvirt-users] libvirt 0.9.4-23 on CentOS 6.2 with xen support
Hi, all I am trying to install xen on CentOS 6.2. (64 bit on Intel CPU). I am at the stage when xen kernel is app and running and xend is running. Next issue is that I am getting following message when tyring to run virt-manager: no connection driver available for No connection for URI xen:/// Some Google search pointed me to the fact that libvirt as installed from CentOS repository is not built with xen support. I found some quides on how to rebuild libvirt from source with patches for xen support and follow them. I am trying to rebuild libvirt version 0.9.4-23, as this is the rpm that was installed on CentOS. I am getting an error as I build the rpm. xencapstest fails. So, there are few questions: 1. Is there an easier way to get libvirt to work with xen? 2. If rebuilding of RPM is the only option, how do I fix xencaps error? Thanks, Rudolf P.S. Guide I am trying to follow is: http://www.howtoforge.com/virtualization-with-xen-on-centos-6.2-x86_64-paravirtualization-and-hardware-virtualization
