[Xen-users] Windows Server 2008 fails to start VNC

[ralphje <ralph@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Currently, I'm trying to install Windows Server 2008 on my Xen server. Creation of the server doesn't give any errors, but it doesn't provide me VNC access either. What am I doing wrong?



I've created the VPS using this config file:

import os, re
arch = os.uname()[4]
if re.search('64', arch):
    arch_libdir = 'lib64'
else:
    arch_libdir = 'lib'

kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
builder='hvm'
memory = 512

# Should be at least 2KB per MB of domain memory, plus a few MB per vcpu.
shadow_memory = 8
name = 'NAME'
vif  = [ 'mac=00:16:3E:23:2B:8D' ]
acpi = 1
apic = 1
disk = [ 'phy:/dev/smile/NAME-disk,hda,w', 'file:/home/xen/images/win08.iso,hdc:cdrom,r' ]

device_model = '/usr/' + arch_libdir + '/xen/bin/qemu-dm'

#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# boot on floppy (a), hard disk (c) or CD-ROM (d)
# default: hard disk, cd-rom, floppy
boot="dc"
sdl=0
vnc=1
vncviewer=0
serial='pty'
usbdevice='tablet'


This is the output of xm list -l
