Hi All, I am new to openvswitch, want to compile and install userspace vswitch, i am using ubuntu/64bit AMD machine.
I followed all the steps on INSTALL.Linux and INSTALL.Linux. * ovsdb-server is running smoothly. * ovs-vswitchd is able to connect to ovsdb-server. but i see below error when i start ovs-vswitchd by "ovs-vswitchd --pidfile --detach": 2012-04-08T19:12:25Z|00004|dpif_linux|ERR|Generic Netlink family 'ovs_datapath' does not exist. The Open vSwitch kernel module is probably not loaded. 2012-04-08T19:12:25Z|00005|dpif|WARN|failed to enumerate system datapaths: No such file or directory 1) How do i resolve above error? 2) Do i need to compile kernel module to resolve above error? 3) One more thing, when i compile openvswitch i get all the binaries on /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/sbin but i don't see any "datapath/linux/openvswitch.ko" being genrated, not sure if there is any separate compilation for this. Any info will be very helpful for me. thanks, regards, Evo.
