Re: [libvirt-users] the probelm in using libvirt to connect esx server
2012/2/20 冰淇淋 <453193368(a)qq.com>:
hi,
I am a new user of libvirt ,i really appreciate libvirt，and want to use it
in my work.I want to use it to conncet to a ESXi server.when I try to
connect to the server ,I use the command :virsh -c
esx://name@exmaple.com,And I get an
1.error :error: internal error curl_easy_perform() returned an error:
Couldn't connect to server (7) : couldn't connect to host
so I think maybe the firewall shutdown the 443 for https,so I used
command:virsh -c esx://name@example.com/?transport=http And I still get an
error like:
error: internal error HTTP response code 417 for call to
'RetrieveServiceContent'
error: failed to connect to the hypervisor
HTTP error code 417 is related to the Expect header. The error
indicates that the server or a proxy in between doesn't handle the
Expect header. I assume that the ESXi sever itself is not the problem,
because it works for me here. Maybe there is a HTTP proxy between your
computer and the ESXi server that returns this 417 error code.
This problem is probably related to libvirt sending a dummy Expect
header instead of sending no Expect at all.
If you're building libvirt from source you can try this patch that I
just send to the mailing list for review
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2012-February/msg00860.html
It fixes the Expect header problem and might fix your connection problem.
