[rahim entezari]

With special thanks to Chris...
Every thing is OK with commands"make""make install""insmod
datapath/linux/openvswitch.ko""mkdir -p
/usr/local/etc/openvswitch".But when using this cmd : "ovsdb-tool
create /usr/local/etc/openvswitch/conf.db vswitchd/vswitch.ovsschema"
this error accured : ovsdb-tool: I/O error: create:
/usr/local/etc/openvswitch/conf.db failed (File exists)

also if we ignore it and continue to the next steo which is :
"[root at localhost openvswitch]# ovsdb-server
/usr/local/etc/openvswitch/conf.db
?remote=punix:/usr/local/var/run/openvswitch/db.sock
" this error accures : "bash: ovsdb-serverovsdb-server: command not found"

Well, it looks like that file already exists. You can either use that one or, if you think it's okay, erase it and create a new one.

You see "ovsdb-server" twice like that? Is it possible that your PATH environment variable is wrong?
