Hi,

My Xen 4.3-unstable changeset 26666 installation is broken. The
following is my bug report.

teo-en-ming@intel-core-i5-4430-desktop:~$ sudo xl create /etc/xen/windows7
Parsing config from /etc/xen/windows7
failed to free memory for the domain

teo-en-ming@intel-core-i5-4430-desktop:~$ sudo xl list
libxl: error: libxl.c:557:libxl_list_domain: geting domain info list:
Permission denied
libxl_domain_infolist failed.
These sorts of errors usually mean your toolstack and hypervisor are
mismatched.

One common way this can happen at the moment is that Xen recently
switched to installing in /usr/local by default instead of /usr
(mentioned in http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Xen_4.3_Release_Notes). If you
have previously installed Xen into /usr then you might pickup the
old /usr/sbin/xl instead of the new /usr/local/sbin/xl.

The solution is to either clean out any remnants of the old installation
from /usr (e.g. "make uninstall" in the old source tree, or by hand) or
to install the newer version with "./configure --prefix=/usr".

Ian.




Dear Ian,

Thank you for your reply. But your advice came too late. I have already downgraded Ubuntu from 13.04 to 12.04.2 LTS, thinking it is a compiler problem.

By the way, based on your information, I have initially installed Xen 4.4-unstable, then subsequently I replaced Xen 4.4-unstable with Xen 4.3-unstable. Since this is the case, I should run ./configure --prefix=/usr/local in Xen 4.3-unstable to overwrite the installation of Xen 4.4-unstable. Am I right?
