[ovs-discuss] OVS 2.6.0 - Ovs-ofctl can not get flows

[zhi]

hi, all

I downloaded the OVS 2.6.0 and installed it following by here[1]. But I met
a strange problem, please let me show you:

root at devstack:~# ovs-vsctl show
6e695086-6663-4fd0-b713-5a12605c92cb
    Bridge br-int
        Port br-int
            Interface br-int
                type: internal
    Bridge br-ex
        Port br-ex
            Interface br-ex
                type: internal
    ovs_version: "2.6.0"
root at devstack:~# ovs-ofctl dump-flows br-int
ovs-ofctl: br-int is not a bridge or a socket
root at devstack:~# ovs-vsctl add-br br00
root at devstack:~# ovs-ofctl dump-flows br00
ovs-ofctl: br00 is not a bridge or a socket

To be brief, ovs-ofctl tool can not get any bridges anymore. Bridge "
br-int " and " br-ex " were read from ovsdb. Error happens when I create a
new bridge and try to dump its flows.

I can use ovs-vsctl tool to see all bridges and using ovs-ofctl tool can
not dump any flows, why?

I setup ovs services like this:

root at devstack:~# ps -ef|grep ovs
root     22238     1  0 17:48 ?        00:00:00 ovsdb-server
--remote=punix:/usr/var/run/openvswitch/db.sock
--private-key=db:Open_vSwitch,SSL,private_key
--certificate=db:Open_vSwitch,SSL,certificate
--bootstrap-ca-cert=db:Open_vSwitch,SSL,ca_cert --pidfile --detach
root     22242     1  0 17:48 ?        00:00:02 ovs-vswitchd --pidfile
--detach unix:/usr/var/run/openvswitch/db.sock
root     23031 22899  0 18:13 pts/6    00:00:00 grep --color=auto ovs

Could someone give me some advice?


Thanks
