Same problem with a 64 bits Ubuntu 8.04 installation. Corrected by adding (xend-unix-server yes) in /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp
But there is an other problem. After the modification in the Xen configuration file and Xend restarting, Virt-manager can be successfully connected to the local Xen host, but it closes directly and silently after the connection. There is nothing visible on stdout/stderr because when Virt-manager is launched it becomes a detached process. So I used strace with the -s option and when I try to connect to the local Xen host I get a floating point exception... -- Virt-Manager Error: Unable to open a connection to the Xen hypervisor/daemon. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/220985 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
