[Issue] vagrant up --provider=xenserver #48
Description
Hi Guys,
I am using a MacBook running MacOS Sierra 10.12.6 using brew.
I have installed vagrant as per instructions on their website and it works with my local virtualbox instance but now I am trying to get it now to spin up a VM on a remote xenserver which has been converted from VirtualBox to Xen but every time I run it, I get the following error.
Error
$ vagrant up --provider=xenserver
Bringing machine 'default' up with 'xenserver' provider...

Does anyone have an idea. There doesn't seem to be any logs so I am at a loss of trying to figure this out.
I am also including my Vagrant file in case ive made some silly issue in here which I dont think I have.
Vagrantfile

# config.vm.box_check_update = false
# Create a forwarded port mapping which allows access to a specific port

# config.vm.network "forwarded_port", guest: 80, host: 8080
# Create a forwarded port mapping which allows access to a specific port

#

# config.vm.provision "shell", inline: <<-SHELL

# apt-get install -y apache2
# SHELL
config.vm.provider :xenserver do |xs|
xs.xs_host = "10.xxx.xxx.5"
xs.xs_username = "root"
xs.xs_password = "xxxxxxxx"
xs.pv = true
xs.memory = 2048
xs.use_himn = false
end
config.vm.network "public_network", bridge: "xenbr0"
end
I have also tried setting xs.use_him to true but this didn't help and resulted to the same error.
May I ask what am I doing wrong?
With regards to converting the image from VirtualBox to XEN, I used the guide in this Readme.
http://www.rubydoc.info/gems/vagrant-xenserver/0.0.4
Hope someone can point me into the right direction.
Kind Regards,
Simon

Update
I have just span up a Debian 9 VM and installed vagrant and this plugin. I can confirm its throwing out the exact same error as macOS
