Bug#562703: [Pkg-xen-devel] Bug#562703: qemu-dm missing from xen-utils-3.4

So that might be the reason for the problem I'm seeing. I'll update it. Is Xen 4.0.0 going to make it into Squeeze? I'll happily test that if that is the case. I am currently testing out Squeeze to see if it is suitable for running Xen. I've been happy with the Lenny setup. There's currently an ongoing discussion in -devel started by Bastian to see if we should use 3.4 or 4.0. For the moment, nearly everyone is saying that 4.0 would be a better choice. So it would be the opposite way: is 3.4 going to make it into Squeeze, rather than 4.0. Now, just saying fails at 9% of the installation doesn't help me at all. What exactly failed? What happened, and how? Started a reqular installation, then the VM crashes. It seems to always fail at the same point in the installation, which is quite early on. What's in your /var/log/xen/*.log files, and especially that qemu log? What makes you think that specifically, the issue is in xen-qemu-dm? I've attached the log files, but the log entries which occur just after the crash are: Can you please try with Xen 4.0 from experimental, and if it does the same, let me know (with log entries)? I'll then forward it to the persons that are co-maintaining with me. FYI: http://ftparchive.gplhost.com/debian/pool/lenny/main/x/xen-qemu-dm-4.0/ I think that you must have done it by yourself, but I say it still. You will need to fix the keyboard maps symlink in /usr/share/xen/qemu/keymaps, otherwise Xen wont find it. What I did is simply this: z...@gplhost:buzzig_ /usr/share/xen$ ls -lah total 16K drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K 2010-06-11 16:46 . drwxr-xr-x 386 root root 12K 2010-06-11 16:45 .. lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 2010-06-11 16:46 qemu - /usr/share/qemu I didn't do it in the package yet, because this keymaps folder should really NOT be in the qemu package. I have open bugs in the BTS, but yet this is still an ongoing issue. Obviously, this doesn't depend on any version of Xen (do it once, and it will be ok for 3.4 AND 4.0).

I'd like to get it working too! What I believe is happening is that qemu can't find its keyboard definition file and just exits... :( xen-qemu-dm depends on qemu-system because that is the only package that holds the keyboard definition in Debian. It is highly not wanted in a distribution to have multiple copies of the same file. But as we don't need the full of qemu in kvm or xen, but just the bios and keyboard definitions, it was planned that the files would be sent to a separate binary package. Maybe this has already happened and I was not aware of it. Can you please use apt-file to search for the correct dependency that is mising? Eg something like: apt-file search en-us PIPE grep keymaps # apt-file search en-us | grep keymap faumachine-data: /usr/share/faumachine/keymaps/en-us kvm: /usr/share/kvm/keymaps/en-us qemu: /usr/share/qemu/keymaps/en-us qemu-kvm: /usr/share/kvm/keymaps/en-us qemu-system: /usr/share/qemu/keymaps/en-us rdesktop: /usr/share/rdesktop/keymaps/en-us xen-utils-3.2-1: /usr/share/xen-3.2-1/qemu/keymaps/en-us So by the look of it the keymaps were in xen-utils-3.2 but are no longer in xen-utils-3.4 # dpkg -L xen-utils-3.4 | grep keymap # dpkg -L xen-utils-3.4 | grep en-us # (sorry, can't fine how to type a PIPE in the N900, if you do please tell me...) ;-) Then I suppose that just a symlinks to that file in: /usr/share/xen/qemu/keymaps/en-us will fix your issue with the keyboard definition. In any ways, I am VERY interested by your feedback here, as clearly, it seems there's a dependency or path issue here, that I didn't see (maybe because I did tests on my laptop only, and this laptop has a shitload of stuff installed, including qemu itself).

Even worth than what I thought... So by the look of it the keymaps were in xen-utils-3.2 but are no longer in xen-utils-3.4 Which is quite right because: - having it shipped 7 times in the distro is so ugly already - the xen package itself doesn't include qemu-dm so it doesn't make sense to have it in I did this to link the keymaps into those provided by qemu-system # cd /usr/share # mkdir xen # cd xen/ # ln -s ../qemu # ls -ld /usr/share/xen/qemu lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 2010-05-21 08:18 /usr/share/xen/qemu - ../qemu And, presto, the domain starts and appears to be all working :-) Great, that means the issue is very easy to debug. Unfortunately, I don't see anyone working on a separate package for the keymaps. I guess we shall ping everyone here. I will do that tonight, as I really want to fix this very bad situation. I guess that best would be to open a thread in -devel which I will do.
