[libvirt] Problems in using Storage APIs in libvirt

[Amudhan Gunasekaran]

Hi,

I have got the problem solved. I could now compile the code using Storage APIs also. But I run them I am getting error message: "libvir: Remote error : unknown procedure: 72"

The API I used is: virConnectListStoragePools

What is the problem here? How could I solve this. My OS is SLES 10 sp2 and hypervisor is XEN.

Thanks,
Amudhan.

I could use APIs related the network, for example virConnectListNetworks. Where could I have gone wrong and what are the work-arounds to solve them?

This probably means that libvirtd and/or virsh is still using the old copy of
the library.  If you have a libvirt package installed, and then you built the
the CVS libvirt by hand, the CVS version probably got installed somewhere to
/usr/local/lib, which is in the search path after where libvirt is probably
installed to /usr/lib.  Try removing your libvirt package and doing a "make
install" in the CVS version; you should then have everything matching up.
