Hi I''m using Xen on my AMD64 / Ubuntu 7.10 server which I recently upgraded, and my 2 VMs are decidedly flaky. They seem to be blocked for most of the time, and networking doesn''t work properly.

Hi, I got this error when starting a domU on Centos 5.1 i386, Device 0 (vif) could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not working. Why is this happening ? I should restart the machine to see if this still happends after a fresh network bridge. But it's somehow a production server, I would like not to restart it, if possible. No domU is currently running. I could start domUs a week ago.

Hi Orazio, Is "NoneType object is unsubscriptable" the full and complete error message? I'd have expected some sort of accompanying backtrace, if not on the console then in /var/log/xen/* Is this issue by any chance fixed by installing the xen-qemu-dm-4.0 package? Lastly, does this happen with the packages from Wheezy? Thanks, Ian.
