Hi,
 I was finally able to connect to the xenapi hypervisor.  However, once I connect to virsh and give a 'quit' command I get  "* glibc detected *** virsh: double free or corruption (fasttop):". Please find below the actual memory dump.
 
Note: I have disabled the SSL certificate verification in xenapi_driver.c by setting curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0) & curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 0).
 
 
[root@sharmila libvirt-0.9.2]# virsh -c "xenapi://localhost"
Enter username for localhost: root
Enter root's password for localhost:

 Moreover, Iam not able to start any VMs uisng xencenter after i have started using virsh. It says,  Error: Starting VM 'XenServer SDK 5.6.100-47101p import' - Internal error: another frontend device is already connected to this domain (frontend (domid=0 | kind=vbd | devid=51712); backend (domid=0 | kind=vbd | devid=51712)). Even a reboot of the machine didnt help.
 
Any pointers on the above 2 issues would be of great help.
 
Thanks in Advance!

Subject: Re: [libvirt-users] Is libvirt supported on Citrix Xenserver?
 
Hi Matthias,
>

Sorry for the confusion.It was an edited one & hence thetypo. Below is the

actual output:

# virsh -c xenapi://<myip>

Enter username for <myip>: root

Enter root's password for <myip>:

error: authentication failed: (null)

I was not able to get anything in the Xen logs. Somehowfigured out to print

the Xen error using the patch given at the link http://osdir.com/ml/libvir-

list/2011-06/msg00298.html. It prints"TRANSPORT_FAULT". Any pointers to this

error would be much appreciated. Iam also trying to debugthis issue.

As per your suggestion,

I had used make rpm. But it requires xen-devel pacakge,which I was

not able to get for Xen 3.4.2. Is there any way where I canuse the source

package and build & install the library without using'make rpm' ?

Thanks for all the help.

Naresh

Running 'make rpm' should build an libvirt-devel RPM package for you.
