xen-3 doesn't have xfrd - the FAQ is old. Are you sure you are running a xen0 kernel? Try checking /var/log/xend.log. Also what version of xen are you running? If it's the xen-unstable snapshot, and you believe this is a bug in xen itself (rather than the ebuilds), please report upstream at bugzilla.xensource.com

For some reason xend can't connect to the xen support in your kernel. Your backtrace is identical to http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-ia64-devel/2005-12/msg00074.html where the resolution was CONFIG_XEN_PRIVILEGED_GUEST not being set in dom0. Are you sure your booting the dom0 kernel and it's a priviledged guest? Can you try the kernel config in arch/xen/configs/xen0_defconfig_x86_32, also check /proc/xen and /sys/bus/xen/devices/
After a reboot it works. Sometimes it crashes if I use a X Programm over SSH Tunnel. Now I try a Virtual Machine. Must it be the some Kernel Version? If I try a Image from the xen DEMO CD I get a Error like hotplug scripts are not Proper working. Then crashed my network until I restart net.eth0. We need also the xen-tools to create a VM on a Intel VT Machine http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/aliguori/vm-tools/vmx-howto.html Regards Roland
dom0 and domU kernel versions should match (same version of xen). The reason is that the hypervisor API is not yet stable, and also the driver front/backends exchange data structures which can change between versions. I don't know about X under Xen; I'd guess x clients should work fine, but x servers only run in dom0 and don't support some video cards (eg. ati closed source drivers don't work). I remember there being some people working on getting xorg running under domUs but I don't know the current status. Regarding vm-tools, please submit an ebuild in a separate bug report.
I saw xend fail like that when using a 2.6.16 devel snapshot from sometime after rc3 (not the one in portage, I have not tried it). xend started correctly under 2.6.12 and 2.6.16 rc1 or rc2 (don't remember the exact point I pulled an earlier snapshot). I had to revert back to 2.6.12 to get something up and functional, but I'll be playing with newer kernels in the near future again. I'll report anything interesting I find.
I'd the same issue. The problems seems to be, that the kernel (2.6.16) does not longer support /proc/xen/xsd_mfn. They moved to /proc/xen/xsd_kva. Take a look into http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-changelog/2006-02/msg00070.html. I'd to merge the unstable xen version, and it worked. The connection refused problem I've got also, but it was a missing /var/lib/xenstore, because it was empty as I removed the old xen Version and upgrade to the new one (as the old version didn't work with 2.6.16). It gets purged after the install when portage trys to

Hello, I tried the newest ebuilds from portage with newest kernel (installed also via ebuild)...but I get the same Problem.xenstored needs a /var/run/xenstored directory and there a socket file. After I create it ...it works. But the network will also not run. Error Device 2049 (vbd) will not be connected. Hotplug scripts not working. The hotplug script in /etc/xen/scripts is not make rwx. On some scripts there is no x Flag set. Is this OK? Then I found out to get Xen work with Intel VT libvncserver is missing also sdl-devel.SDL on build Please help.
/var/run/xenstored is created by the ebuild. I don't know why this doesn't seem to be sufficient for some installs. There is a bug open for SDL support (along with some other USE flags) #124361 - I haven't used it, so if anyone has it working and tested please attach a patch for the ebuild to that bug. udev should work okay, the rules are installed into /etc/udev/rules.d/. You can debug by enabling udev logging and then checking syslog and making sure that each xen event is matching one of the udev rules and starting the appropriate handler action.

I only saw this if the previous installed xen doesn't put any file in /var/run/xenstored so it gets purged by portage after a upgrade, because portage trys to «safely» unmerge allready installed version. This directory is at this point empty so portage removes it.
I've added keepdir calls after the dodirs in the ebuild, that should stop the ebuild created xen dirs from being removed if they are empty when xen is upgraded.

I cant roll back to a running version because all xen versions < xen-3.0.1-r4 are removed from portage, why? save some bytes ? regards martin
Try cleaning out the /var/run/xenstored /var/lib/xenstored /var/xen/dump directories before starting xend - it's possible that something stored there is interfering with xend starting, since it wasn't designed to be forward-compatible. I really doubt rolling back would help you; -r4 and -r0 use the same source code, there are only minor changes to the ebuild. If you really need an older version you can always get it from http://www.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/app-emulation/xen/
Thanks for the link, that was nice news. But unfortunally the cleaning doesn
Thanks for the link, that was nice news. But unfortunally the cleaning doesn´t show any effect. still the same behavior. regards Martin
Re-open if this still occurs with 3.0.2.
