Re: [Xen-users] virt-install error on every restart

["suyash jape" <suyashjape@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi  Mr Berrange,

XenD is running fine.
 I am also able to boot up domains i had installed before
virt-install started giving this  error. These are the domains i
had installed with that virt-install itself !
All the other xm commands are also running fine.( xm list, xm create ,xm top and so on). 
Only virt-install/xenguest-install seems to have stopped working after restart !

I even updated xen and libvirt with yum.
yum update libvirt.
yum update xen.

But even this new  combination behaves the same way on restart.

Thanks.......

So is XenD actually still running ? That error message indicates libvirt
was unable to connect to XenD. What does the following say

   service xend status
