Re: [Xen-devel] Need help getting http interface with Xen 3 working

[Jerry Gulla <jgulla@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks, that's the piece I was missing.  I was trying to get
mod_python to call the .sv/Main.py file directly (which I managed to
do), but, obviously, it was also the wong thing to do :-).  I made the
appropriate change to my http.conf, pointed it at a copy of
tools/index.psp and got further. Now I just need to figure out why I
can't get any node info (Xend is running, as I can execute "xm list"
just fine).  Is there any logging I can turn on to see where it might
be getting stuck?

Thanks again,

Jerry
