Thanks a lot Marton for your help. But there is no nova.conf file in the directory you mentioned. I have checked the log for nova-compute.log and I believe that the flag is set correctly because I read past the following line in the log :<br><br>"2012-04-15 00:55:07 DEBUG nova.service [-] libvirt_type : qemu from (pid=2752) wait /opt/stack/nova/nova/service.py:442"<br><br>Any other suggestions will be much appreciated. I need to get this thing up.<br><br>Thanks,<br>Salman<br><br><div><div id="SkyDrivePlaceholder"></div>> Date: Sun, 15 Apr 2012 07:27:43 +0200<br>> Subject: Re: [Openstack] Unable to ping launched Instance<br>> From: marton.kiss@gmail.com<br>> To: salmanmk@live.com<br>> CC: openstack@lists.launchpad.net<br>> <br>> In that case, check the libvirt type value<br>> /opt/stack/etc/nova/nova.conf, and check the value inside the log file<br>> of nova-compute after starting.<br>> <br>> M.<br>> <br>> 2012/4/15 Salman Malik <salmanmk@live.com>:<br>> > I am using devstak's stack.sh script.<br>> ><br>> > Salman<br>> ><br>> >> Date: Sun, 15 Apr 2012 07:12:42 +0200<br>> ><br>> >> Subject: Re: [Openstack] Unable to ping launched Instance<br>> >> From: marton.kiss@gmail.com<br>> >> To: salmanmk@live.com<br>> >> CC: openstack@lists.launchpad.net<br>> >><br>> >> Are you using devstack or a package based deployment?<br>> >><br>> >> M.<br>> >><br>> >> 2012/4/15 Salman Malik <salmanmk@live.com>:<br>> >> > I haven't edited nova-compute.conf.
