Hi!

xl create <guestconfig> fails with:

libxl: error: libxl_dom.c:621:libxl_userdata_store cannot 
write /var/lib/xen/userdata-n.2.6720430c-9ac4-df11-ad55-00e081806fbe.xl 
for /var/lib/xen/userdata-d.2.6720430c-9ac4-df11-ad55-00e081806fbe.xl: No 
such file or directory

The directory /var/lib/xen does not exist. In that case it should be created
as the python code is doing.

Christoph

The directory /var/lib/xen is supposed to be made by "make install",
at line 62 of tools/Makefile.

You need to understand why it isn't being created on your setup.

I "install" xen tools by copying everthing under dist/install/usr to /usr.

There's your problem.  Don't Do That Then.  Or, if you insist, you
must manually create the directories outside /usr.
