i'm trying to make a simple sdn network with ryu and openVswitch, but my ryu controller seems to not work properly.
I'm just trying to ping two hosts, but when i execute the command
ryu-manager simple_switch_13.py
(which is a prebuilt script) the controller does nothing and the packets are not forwarded by the datapath, it doesn't even flood them.
When i stop the ryu-manager it gives this traceback:
Traceback (most recent call last):

I don't think the problem is in the code, since simple_switch_13.py is a prebuilt script. Does anyone know what i'm doing wrong? You can find an example of simple_switch_13.py here.
If i miss to say something please ask me, thank you.
At last i solved the problem, i think it was soomething i missed in the datapath configuration, since i didn't change the code. I'll post it here if somebody will need it:
ifconfig eth0 add FC00:1::2/64 up
ifconfig eth1 10.0.0.2/24 up
ifconfig eth2 add FC02:1::2/64 up
/etc/init.d/openvswitch-switch start
ovs-vsctl add-br br1
ovs-vsctl add-port br1 eth1
ovs-vsctl set-controller br1 tcp:10.0.0.1:6633
