Public bug reported:

Seeing  libvirt error  while trying to deploy instances in OpenStack 
deployment: 
"error: internal error: Unable to find 'cpuacct' cgroups controller mount".

This is recreatable for kilo and liberty.


The cloud version for kilo is root@lambert:~# dpkg -l|grep virt
ii  libvirt-bin                         1.2.12-0ubuntu14.2~cloud0             
amd64        programs f
or the libvirt library
ii  libvirt0                            1.2.12-0ubuntu14.2~cloud0             
amd64        library fo
r interfacing with different virtualization systems

And I was also able to recreate with liberty version:

root@lambert:/etc/apt/sources.list.d# apt-cache policy libvirt-bin
libvirt-bin:
  Installed: 1.2.16-2ubuntu11~cloud0
  Candidate: 1.2.16-2ubuntu11~cloud0

When I tried on a system  with 1.2.2-0ubuntu13.1.7, there was no issue starting 
the container.

If this is an issue with the version in the cloud archives, when was it
fixed and when does  the fix makes it to the kilo and liberty cloud
archives?

Below is the error on the nova-compute node with actual instance xml and
I also recreated with a basic container:
