[lxc-users] setproctitle error doing an lxc-start

2015-12-02 Thread Peter Steele
From the searches I've done this seems to be a known issue but I'm not 
clear what the solution is. I'm using LXC 1.1.5 under CentOS 7.1 and 
created a container using


# lxc-create -t centos -n test1

This completed without issues. I followed this up with a start command:

# lxc-start -n test1
lxc-start: utils.c: setproctitle: 1461 Invalid argument - setting 
cmdline failed

lxc-start: lxc_start.c: main: 344 The container failed to start.
lxc-start: lxc_start.c: main: 346 To get more details, run the container 
in foreground mode.
lxc-start: lxc_start.c: main: 348 Additional information can be obtained 
by setting the --logfile and --logpriority options.


I had earlier been using LXC 1.0.7 and did not get this error when I ran 
lxc-start. Do I need to role back or is there a workaround?

The setproctitle error can be ignored, we've silenced it later. It
doesn't actually affect container startup at all, so your failure is
coming from something else.

Please follow the recommendations in the error message and re-run your
lxc-start with the -F flag to get the actual error message.

I realized the issue at 3:00 am (couldn't sleep). The default centos 
template is configured to use lxcbr0 whereas my servers have br0. I just 
changed the container's config to use br0 instead and the container came 
up without issues (other than this setproctitle error that apparently 
can be ignored).


The important thing is that udev is not running, unlike my earlier 
tests, so I'm making progress.
