Hi Jesse, So I did the following: 1. Started openvswitch on the host. 2. Created a bridge and interface to attach the container to, and started the containers. The containers are able to communicate with the host using ovs. 3. Now, I am starting vms within the container. So, before this I am creating another bridge within the container to attach the vms to, and also trying to create tap interfaces for the vms to add to teh bridge, as I would do usually without containers. But I get the following error:
Sep 30 19:57:50|00002|stream_unix|ERR|/tmp/stream-unix.25326.0: connection to openvswitch_necessaryfiles_kernel465/ovs_database/db.sock failed: Connection refused I think vsctl is not able to connect to the database socket. If I run the exact same command from the base default container where I started openvswitch, I do not get this error. The container is other wise able to get to the directory openvswitch_necessaryfiles_kernel465/ovs_database. Do you have any idea what could be wrong?
