That's a VERY good suggestion.
Instead of trying everything all at once and not knowing which ones
went wrong, it'd be better to take it one step at a time.
If you simply want something that "just works", then better stick with
tested integrated solutions (like RHEL/Centos5, or XCP). But if you
want to start from scratch, start with:
- having a dom0 boot
- look at example config files from /etc/xen/xmexample*
- create a HVM guest using "xm create" and the example config file, if
your system has VT/AMD-V. It's simpler, and it allows you to use Live
CD ISO (like systemrescued)
- create a PV guest from scratch by creating a manual config file,
like http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Xen/InstallingCentOSDomU . Don't
use a kickstart file yet though, start using the interactive installer
Once you master the basics, then move on to tools like
virt-manager/virt-install. Those tools might require a specific
version combination, which might or might not work in your current
environment.
That will save you (and other people on this list) lots of problems
and confusions.

FWIW, I think the error is related to xend-http-server and xend-port
on /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp.
