xen fedora 16 - "is xenstore daemon running?"


hi guys,

i've posted a couple of times about trying to install xen from source (and failing) and am currently trying to do this on fedora 16. since it comes with a ready made xen compatibel kernel, i had hoped it would be easy.

i install xen easily, without any problems, update grub, and then select xen from the listed options at boot.

however, xen does not start up properly. when i run the command "xl info" i get the following output:

libxl: error: libxl.c:56:libxl_ctx_init Is xenstore daemon running?
failed to stat /var/run/xenstored.pid: No such file or directory
cannot init xl context

i've tried following a couple of suggestions on google but other than am running into a brick wall. i think i'm nearly there, i would really appreciate any help.

Is xenstore daemon running?

What's the output of 'ps aufx'?

foodown, thank you for your response. actually, i have managed to get xen starting manually by using the following commands:

sudo modprobe xen-evtchn

sudo /etc/init.d/xencommons start

/etc/init.d/xendomains start

sudo /etc/init.d/xend start


xen is now running, although i am having other problems which i may need to mention in another post in this forum later...
