List-id: Discussion of API issues surrounding Xen <xen-api.lists.xensource.com>

First off, I always have to connect with "https" no matter the port, but try "https://localhost" or the IP address of the XenSource server.

Next, my configuration files for the API are not in a *.sxp file, they are in /etc/xensource/xenapi.conf

It looks like you aren't even getting to the API server. Python is throwing the error, and not an XML error that you would receive from the API host.

Try to telnet to https://localhost, or https://localhost:8006; just try to get a TCP connection established.

First Thank you Christoph for answering me.
I don't know where is the configuration for API. If it is in the xend-config.sxp
Yes, I have these on

(xend-tcp-xmlrpc-server yes)
(xend-unix-xmlrpc-server yes)
(xend-tcp-xmlrpc-server-address 'localhost')
(xend-tcp-xmlrpc-server-port 8006)

When I look into XenAPI.py there is no def login_with_password in it.
I wonder where the function login_with_password comes from?
Any ideas?

Did you change your API port to use 8006? I typically use https://localhost

Hi list,

I install xen 3.3 from apt-get xen-server install
on Ubuntu and this is my small Python script:
-------------------------------------------------------------
import sys
sys.path.append('/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages')
from xen.xm.XenAPI import Session
session = Session('http://localhost:8006/')
session.login_with_password('root', '')
-------------------------------------------------------------
and it returns
"xen.xm.XenAPI.Failure: The method session.login_with_password is unsupported"
-------------------------------------------------------------
Please help me with the first step into binding. I only want to get the information about the resource assumption such as CPU, RAM of the doms.

Thank you very much
