Hi Ben, I was able to get rid of that schema problem but still I'm running into the kernel module issue; here is the error message,
ovs-vswitchd --pidfile --detach 2013-01-08T11:27:40Z|00001|reconnect|INFO|unix:/usr/local/var/run/openvswitch/db.sock: connecting... 2013-01-08T11:27:40Z|00002|reconnect|INFO|unix:/usr/local/var/run/openvswitch/db.sock: connected 2013-01-08T11:27:40Z|00003|dpif_linux|ERR|Generic Netlink family 'ovs_datapath' does not exist. The Open vSwitch kernel module is probably not loaded. 2013-01-08T11:27:40Z|00004|dpif|WARN|failed to enumerate system datapaths: No such file or directory The openvswitch kernel module is still loaded as the following CLI shows, /sbin/modinfo openvswitch filename: /lib/modules/3.7.0-030700-generic/kernel/net/openvswitch/openvswitch.ko license: GPL description: Open vSwitch switching datapath srcversion: 7EFC7E464483C3CCF09C124 depends: intree: Y vermagic: 3.7.0-030700-generic SMP mod_unload modversions Looks like OVS userspace package has a problem to connect to this preloaded kernel module. Thanks.

This message seems self-explanatory. _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
