Choosing A Webhost:
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

For some reason xenstored is missing the data specifiying what
Psuedo TTY the guest console is on. The /var/log/xen/xend-*.log
files may contain useful information.

This is good - the neccessary Xen daemons are all running at least.

The guest you created appears to have started up too - so for some reason
just the console is messed up. Can you also post the output of

  virsh dumpxml export1

Which will show us the actual live virtual hardware configuration it is
running with
