this means somethings wrong with your installation. The version of xen
hypervisor (try "xm info") must match the version of xen userland
tools (something like dpkg -l "xen*" | grep ii)

you mixed up "xm start" and "xm create". Try

xm create vignettes.cfg

or maybe (depending on what's in the config file) one of

xm create -f /vignettes.cfg
xm create -F /vignettes.cfg
