Script /etc/xen/qemu-ifup is missing in xen-utils-3.2 (32bit)

Same on 64 bits systems :(.

was this fixed with the latest version of xen-utils last week or is it still a problem?

I have de same problem with a fresh install of Hardy (xen-utils 3.2.0-0ubuntu9) :

root@ubuntu:/var/log/xen# cat qemu-dm-6.log
Watching /local/domain/0/device-model/6/logdirty/next-active
Watching /local/domain/0/device-model/6/command
/etc/xen/qemu-ifup: could not launch network script
Could not initialize device 'tap'

I can confirm this is still a problem in 64bit hardy.

once of out beta I will upload a new version.

Thanks
chuck

For anyone with this problem in the meantime, just create a symlink between /etc/xen and /etc/xen/scripts e.g.

ln -s /etc/xen/scripts/qemu-ifup /etc/xen/qemu-ifup

That seems to be working for me!

With the best will of the world, the qemu-ifup isn't in that directory on my system:

And you can get this file from the xen-utils-3.1 package, or simply copy paste this one:

root@bean:~# cat /etc/xen/qemu-ifup
#!/bin/sh

#. /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions
#ulimit -c unlimited

echo 'config qemu network with xen bridge for ' $*

ifconfig $1 0.0.0.0 up
brctl addif $2 $1

This bug was fixed in the package xen-3.2 - 3.2.0-0ubuntu10
