@vmjfk what packer version are you using? If you aren't using the latest version, you will run into https://github.com/ddelnano/packer-plugin-xenserver/issues/40#issuecomment-1153326549.

Also please share the files necessary to reproduce the issue. Version 1.0.0 does not exist.

try to specifiy the current version in the required_plugins section

packer { required_plugins { xenserver= { version = "v0.5.0" source = "github.com/ddelnano/xenserver" } } }

I had the same issue as desribed above and this fixed it for me, seems to just need the docs updated?

@piotrkochan The machine running packer can not connect to your Xcp-ng host. Note that packer connects directly to the xcp-ng server, (the pool primary), and not to Xen-Orchestra

try to specifiy the current version in the required_plugins section

packer { required_plugins { xenserver= { version = "v0.5.0" source = "github.com/ddelnano/xenserver" } } }

I tried this, still keep getting this error.

Should I give any extra permission for Packer binary ?
