RE: [Xen-users] VNC to HVM not starting

["Artur Linhart - Linux communication" <AL.LINUX@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

        I'm not very skilled on the vnc options, but what does it mean if
You have 
        vncdisplay=6
        ?

        I gues it should mean the domain should be accessible through VNC on
the port 5906, isn't it? Is there nothing running on this port? Maybe the
domain cannot start because the port 5906 is already in use... can You try
to run
netstat -a -n
if the domain not started and if it is started? Are there any differences?
What can You find in the corresponding /var/log/xen/qemu-dm*.log file? Are
there any errors?

        With best regards,

                Archie

I mis-spoke..

# xm list
Name                                      ID   Mem VCPUs      State   
Time(s)
Domain-0                                   0  3620     4     r-----     30.8
feisty                                     1   384     1     ------      0.0

feisty is not running...  not accruing time and not in a run state.

Alessandro, did you use a guide?

Oh no...  I think I found my problem.

I'll report if this fixes it.
