[Xen-users] Cant start xend on Ubuntu 9.10 with Xen 3.4.2 and lastest pv-ops dom0 kernel

Hi all,

   I Installed Xen 3.4.2 from source on Ubuntu 9.10 using the pv-ops dom0 kernel
from Jeremy'' git tree. Now the system boots up but trying "sudo
xend start" raises this issue:

ERROR Internal error: Could not obtain handle on privileged command interface (2
= No such file or directory)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/sbin/xend", line 36, in <module>
    from xen.xend.server import SrvDaemon

line 26, in <module>

    from xen.xend import balloon, sxp, image

    xc = xen.lowlevel.xc.xc()
xen.lowlevel.xc.Error: (1, ''Internal error'', ''Could
not obtain handle on privileged command interface (2 = No such file or
directory)'')

Can you please help me to know what is wrong with my installation?

$ uname -a (returns)
Linux afshar-vm-ubuntu 2.6.31.6 #1 SMP Wed Nov 25 03:13:22 EST 2009 i686
GNU/Linux

$ sudo find / -name xend (returns)
/etc/init.d/xend
/usr/sbin/xend
/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/xen/xend

Thanks,
--Afshar;

Re: [Xen-users] Cant start xend on Ubuntu 9.10 with Xen 3.4.2 and lastest pv-ops dom0 kernel

I was starting it up with the sudo command. The problem was the fstab file.You
need to add a line to /etc/fstab: (“none /proc/xen xenfs defaults 0 0“). After
adding this, it worked for me but I don''t know about your problem.

Did you start up xend with non-root user?

I am trying Xen with the same environment as you, that is
Ubuntu 9.10, Xen 3.4.2, and pv-ops dom0.

When I start up xend with normal user, I get similar error message:
---
.ERROR Internal error: Could not obtain handle on privileged command
interface (13 = Permission denied)

    xc = xen.lowlevel.xc.xc()
xen.lowlevel.xc.Error: (1, ''Internal error'', ''Could
not obtain handle
on privileged command interface (13 = Permission denied)'')

When xend starts up with root privilege, however, I got another error.

SELinux is disabled, so it has nothing to do with security settings.
I have no idea what xend tries to connect to.

If anyone succeeded to launch xend with Ubuntu 9.10,
please let me know how to.

Thanks,
Kentaro
