Hi all,

in /etc/init.d/xapi there are lines:

# Source config
if [ -f /etc/sysconfig/$prog ] ; then
    . /etc/sysconfig/$prog
fi

This is, as far as I know, debian style.
Ubunut normaly has params in /etc/default/xapi - but this does not exist.

I guess, therefore
start_daemon -p "$PIDFILE" $exec -pidfile "$PIDFILE" -daemon true $XAPI_OPTIONS

does not have any options. probably correct, probably the root cause why xapi is not running.

Can't say.

Sounds like xapi hasn't started correctly. Check in the logs for 'thread_zero' and see where it's got to. Additionally, try 'message-cli diag'.

Hi Jon,
sorry, no success.

I guess something else must be wrong since the xe-command (should be working with xcp-xapi I guess) says it has an connection error.

I'd set a root password and try to get it working that way. We always run as root here, so it's likely that running as a normal user will require code changes.

Hi all,
O.K.

since ubunut normally does not have a root password I have tried with a
different user I normally work with.
No success.
Nothing in the normal logs.

It's a way with small steps to heaven.

Help appreciated.

Hi all,
ok, partial success.

make did it - after a long time

make install and the wizard and reboot did it as well.

But what now?
To connect via XenCenter I need a user and a password. Where to set this
in the config.
xapi uses PAM for authentication. Try logging in with your root password.


Is there a how-to?
That’s a good idea — someone should write one! :)


Cheers,

Hi,

It builds packages using chroots, so each package build has to reinstall libraries — that’s probably what you’re seeing. It’s perfectly normal :-)

Hi Jon,

Ok, I did not give it an hour since it looked like it tries to install always the same packages.

I'll let it run.
Thanks
Will come back with info.

Hi Karl,

What sort of loop? It does have to make an awful lot of packages - it takes a bit over an hour for me right now.

Hi all,

thanks for the info. Seems to run into a loop at "make" for ubuntu.
Thanks Karl-Heinz

Hi,

For Ubuntu 14.04 please check out buildroot (
https://github.com/xenserver/buildroot
).  This repository can be used for building packages on many different distributions although it does not include pre-built packages.

Thanks,

Bob

Subject: [Xen-API] xcp-xapi toolstack on ubuntu 14.04

Hi all,
already since some time I am trying to install a xcp-xapi tool-stack on
an ubuntu 14.04 system.

I have posted in various xen related forums for help but last but not
least was directed to this list.

Target is to have a xen-server running on a ubuntu host able to manage
the xen-server with xen-center on windows.

To be honest. The various systems on xen (xen hypervisor, citrix xen
server, .....) do confuse me a little bit. My understanding is the
xcp-xapi tool-stack is what I need if I want ubuntu to be the host -
probably wrong!?

Is there anywhere a how-to on that!?
Hall how-to's I found are on 12.04 and the packages named there do not
exist and do not work on 14.04.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Kind Regards

Hr./Mr. Karl-Heinz Fischbach
