Hello,

I'm running Xen on Debian Lenny. I've installed Xen from packages. All
things went well. THe dom0 works fine.

When I try to launch a VM with the "-c" option, I get this error message :

Please report to xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/xen-3.2-1/bin/xm", line 7, in <module>
    main.main(sys.argv)
  File "/usr/lib/xen-3.2-1/lib/python/xen/xm/main.py", line 2528, in main
    _, rc = _run_cmd(cmd, cmd_name, args)
  File "/usr/lib/xen-3.2-1/lib/python/xen/xm/main.py", line 2552, in _run_cmd
    return True, cmd(args)
  File "<string>", line 1, in <lambda>
  File "/usr/lib/xen-3.2-1/lib/python/xen/xm/main.py", line 1306, in
xm_importcommand
    cmd.main([command] + args)
  File "/usr/lib/xen-3.2-1/lib/python/xen/xm/create.py", line 1186, in main
    do_console(sxp.child_value(config, 'name', -1))
  File "/usr/lib/xen-3.2-1/lib/python/xen/xm/create.py", line 1208, in
do_console
    (p, rv) = os.waitpid(cpid, os.WNOHANG)
OSError: [Errno 10] No child processes

If I don't use the -c option, I don't get any error, the VM just doesn't start.

The server is a Core2Quad with 4GB RAM.
Here is my configuration file :

kernel="/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.26-2-xen-686"
memory = "256"
maxmem = "512"
name = "debian"
vcpus=1
vif = [ 'bridge=xenbr0' ]
disk = [ 'phy:/dev/xen_domU/debian,/dev/hda1,w']

root = "/dev/hda1"
extra="console=xvc0 xencons=xvc0"

Thank you,
Louis
