/home/name/vm1disk file does exist, but apparently is not a valid

It looks like the loopback mounting of this file may be failing, have a look in xend-debug.log.

Is /home/name NFS mounted? If so, it might be exported with root squash which will cause problems. See if you can loopback mount vm1disk. Try copying vm1disk to /tmp and see if you can get the VM to start with file:/tmp/vm1disk.
