Hi,

I think 2.4 still has also this problem 
(http://openvswitch.org/pipermail/dev/2015-September/060106.html) and your 
symptoms seem to match. So if you used a relative path to DPDK when running OVS 
configure, you should do configure and build again with an absolute path to 
DPDK.

Hi Ciara,
Yes i have made sure that 'CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_VHOST_USER=y ' is also checked (It 
is checked by default)
But the problem persists.
