The log didn't capture the full error. You should try manually checking with the following command -- journalctl -u xo-server -n 100

You can increase the numeric portion as needed.

vmware-hostd

Why is that service installed / running?

ziomario

Hello. I have removed vmware and now the port 443 is free. but now,what should I do ? I'm not sure that xen orchestra is working great. to which IP I should connect to see the xen orchestra web administration ? Since the installation ended with an error before,now I don't know what to do. I tried to reinstall it choosing 1 on the menu,but this is what happened :

1. Autoinstall
2. Update / Install without packages
3. Deploy docker container
4. Rollback to another existing installation
5. Exit

the IP number of xcp-ng is 192.168.122.150,but if It seems that this IP is not the IP that I should use,as u can see below :

the IP of the PC where I have installed xen orchestra is 192.68.1.6,but :

Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at 192.168.1.6:443.

are u there ? what should I do ?

Danp

You could try issuing the command systemctl restart xo-server and then check the logs again.

ziomario

I've gone into /opt and I have removed the xo folder. otherwise it didn't work.

Danp

I'm not familiar with that particular script, so I can't help you debug further. Best option at this point is to blow away the VM and start over with a completely fresh install of Ubuntu.
