For 3.5 we are providing a prebuild exe for the guest agent installer, so you
don't have to mess with compiling in python anymore. You can find the iso with
the guest agent and other tools here [1]. I am not 100% sure if it works with
3.4, but I don't see a reason why it shouldn't.

I am trying to install ovirt-guest-agent in a windows 7 sp1 vm with
all
current updates applied. This is a new install for of oVirt Engine
Version: 3.4.3-1.fc19. Both host are running FC20. Besides searching the
list and google I have followed the instructions here:
http://www.ovirt.org/OVirt_Guest_Agent_For_Windows.
I tried many different things to no avail and this install is on a clean win
7 vm. During the creation of the service I am getting this warning:
The following modules appear to be missing
['Carbon', 'Carbon.Files', '_scproxy', 'dummy.Process',
'simplejson',
'test_port ', 'win32com.gen_py']. I do not know if these are needed are
not and have not been able to locate them.
After copying the files created in the python build ,per the instructions I
ran the following :
C:\Program Files (x86)\Guest Agents\oVirt Guest Agent> OVirtGuestService.exe
-instal C:\Program Files (x86)\Guest Agents\oVirt Guest Agent> net start
OVirtGuestService
and get
The OVirt Guest Agent Service service is starting.
The OVirt Guest Agent Service service could not be started.
A service specific error occurred: 1.
More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 3547.
Which gives: A service specific error occurred: ***.
Looking at the windows system event log gives:
The description for Event ID 10 from source OVirtGuestService cannot be
found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your
local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair
the component on the local computer.
If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to
be saved with the event.
The following information was included with the event:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "OVirtGuestService.pyc", line 63, in __init__
File "logging\config.pyc", line 70, in fileConfig
File "logging\config.pyc", line 106, in _create_formatters
File "ConfigParser.pyc", line 607, in get
NoSectionError: No section: 'formatters'
And
The OVirt Guest Agent Service service terminated with service-specific error
Incorrect function..
As I said I have scoured the internet for a resolution for 2 days, one
hinted at the serial driver:
I device manager the VirtIO-Serial Driver is listed and "This device is
working properly."
I'm not sure what to try now.
Regards
Richard
