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: Welcome to

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' ?
