Error: Device 0 (vif) could not be connected.

Hi,

I had a problem regarding Xen 3.1 in Debian Etch. I follow the howto but got some error thru the course, as follows:

linux:~# xm create /etc/xen/node2.domain.com.cfg
Using config file "/etc/xen/node2.domain.com.cfg".
Error: Device 0 (vif) could not be connected. Could not find bridge, and none was specified

vi /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp

(network-script network-bridge)
(vif-script vif-bridge)

vi /etc/xen/node2.domain.com.cfg

name = 'node2.domain.com'
vif = [ 'ip=10.0.0.1' ]


/vserver is created and procedure seem to run smoothly. But problems remains.

How can i fix the problem?

TIA

 

Can you post the full /etc/xen/node2.domain.com.cfg?
What's the output of

Code:

ifconfig

?

 

Hi Falko,

Thanks for the reply. Here's the result of ifconfig:

This is my second install of Xen in Debian Etch using the Howto. The first install works like a charm, thanks for the nice Howto! But my second machine seems too stubborn. Please point me on the right track.

Thanks.

 

I've been googling the whole day but can't see any solution to this problem.
Any suggestions please? What's the best thing to do?

 

It seems Xen wasn't started. Please try

Code:

/etc/init.d/xend start
/etc/init.d/xendomains start

 

Tried the command, it shows the error:


linux:~# /etc/init.d/xend start
blktapctrl: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.0.9.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Tried the ff:

linux:~# ls /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.*
ls: /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8: Too many levels of symbolic links

linux:~# ln -s /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8

linux:~# /etc/init.d/xend start
blktapctrl: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.0.9.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I noticed the the difference:
Starting xend gives the file libcrypto.so.0.9.7. But what i currently have is libcrypto.so.0.9.8.

From what package does libcrypto.so.0.9.7 belong? libssl?

Thanks very much.
