However, when I start the Virtual Machine Monitor, I get the following error:

Unable to open a connection to the Xen hypervisor/daemon.

Verify that:
 - A Xen host kernel was booted
 - The Xen service has been started

============================================================================================

teo-en-ming@ubuntu-1110-amd64-desktop:~$ ps -ef | grep xend
root      7441     1  0 23:05 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/python /usr/sbin/xend start
root      7442  7441  0 23:05 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/python /usr/sbin/xend start

============================================================================================

I have already set the following configuration directives in /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp:

(xend-http-server yes)

# Port xend should use for the HTTP interface, if xend-http-server is set.
#(xend-port            8000)

=============================================================================================

The following command returns nothing.

teo-en-ming@ubuntu-1110-amd64-desktop:~$ sudo netstat -anp | grep -v unix | grep 8000

=============================================================================================

By right, xend should start a http listening service on tcp port 8000, but it does not. I have checked with "sudo netstat -anp | grep -v unix" and there is no tcp port 8000, but there is port 8002 for relocation.

TCP Port 8000 uses to show up in Xen 4.1.3-rc1-pre, but now it does not show up in Xen 4.2-unstable.

Are there any differences between Xen 4.1.3-rc1-pre and Xen 4.2-unstable? Does xen-4.2-unstable uses a configuration file OTHER THAN /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp?

How can I resolve this issue? Please advise.

Thank you very much.

Yours sincerely,

Teo En Ming (Zhang Enming)
