Hello, if I enable via /etc/conf.d/xend the XENSV="yes" I can't connect via IP:8080 Regards Roland
It actually looks like the init.d script does nothing in regards to xensv. Also, it seems that xensv uses mod_python, which would mean that the xend init.d script wouldn't really be able to start it, as it would be dependant on apache.
Created attachment 94044 [details, diff] xen-tools-3.0.2-sv.patch An overeager upstream committer removed the TwistedAdapter class, but it is still used by index.psp (from /var/tmp/portage/xen-tools-3.0.2-r2/work/xen-3.0.2/tools/sv/). This patch can be used to restore TwistedAdapter and allow further testing of xensv by anyone interested in doing so.
xensv is broken upstream (even in their latest development branch), and I don't believe it's our responsibility to fix it for them. There is no mention of xensv in the XenSource wiki or the Xen 3 Users Manual, and third-party alternatives are available (http://xen-tools.org/software/argo/). As such, the current xen-tools ebuilds will no longer install a conf.d file for xend (it only contained the XENSV variable and related comment), and the next revision will check for ${ROOT}/etc/conf.d/xend tell the user to manually remove it (since we can't/shouldn't do that automatically).
