Re: [Xen-users] Xen installation : Python C API mismatch

["Antoine Benkemoun" <antoine@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thank you for your quick answer.

I installed the 3.1.0 binaries on a Lenny Sid installed. I followed the "Perfect Xen 3.0 install" tutorial to the letter.

I have the possibility to install from sources but I am somewhat afraid to do so... Can it crash the machine if installed ontop a previous install ? Basically, the machine not rebooting correctly wins me a trip to the datacentre and that's not fun :P

Is it possible to uninstall a previous Xen install so it doesn't mess up everything ?

These errors typically happen when the Xen code was built against a different
version of Python to the one that's available at runtime.  I've actually
found these are often harmless but that's probably not an appropriate risk to
take for a production machine.

Where exactly did you get your install source for Xen from?  Could you just
build Xen yourself rather than using a pre-compiled version?

Cheers,
Mark
