36.11. Python depreciation warning messages when starting a virtual machine
Sometimes Python will generate a message like the one below, these are often caused by either an invalid or incorrect configuration file. A configuration file containing non-ascii characters will cause these errors.The solution is to correct the configuration file or generate a new one.
Another cause is an incorrect configuration file in your current working directory. “
xm create” will look in the current directory for a configuration file and then in /etc/xen
# xm shutdown win2k3xen12 # xm create win2k3xen12 Using config file "win2k3xen12". /usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/xen/xm/opts.py:520: DeprecationWarning: Non-ASCII character '\xc0' in file win2k3xen12 on line 1, but no encoding declared; see http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0263.html for details execfile(defconfig, globs, locs) Error: invalid syntax (win2k3xen12, line 1)
