The last line in the log file shows:

XendError: Error creating domain: HVM guest support is unavailable: is VT/AMD-V
supported by your CPU and enabled in your BIOS?


Since your CPU info shows prescence of the 'vmx' flag, this must mean VT is not
enabled in your BIOS.

You can verify this by looking at the contents of
/sys/hypervisor/properties/capabilities   - if there are no 'hvm-*' capabilities
listed, then the BIOS has disabled VT.
