Hello Matthias, The error message suggest architecture mismatch, are you sure that you've installed 64-bit packages? By the way, instead of copying those files, you could've altered OCAMLPATH:
$ export OCAMLPATH=/usr/lib64/ocaml:$OCAMLPATH And one more thing, there's a wiki article on building XenAPI: http://wiki.xen.org/xenwiki/XCP_Building_Instructions -- it's a bit outdated but works for the most part. --Sergei On Thu, Jul 14, 2011 at 9:47 AM, Matthias Blankenhaus < [email protected]> wrote: > Hi ! > > I am attempting to build xapi from scratch.
