[Users] cyrillic / russian symbols in the CT console
hi guys! i'm using Debian 7 with OpenVZ wheezy kernel from repository. if i try to type on my HN russian symbols it works just fine. but if i inter the CN, e.g.: vzctl enter ID and try to type something in russian language i get garbled output and questionmarks. i have set correct LANG variable inside the CT node, what else could be causing this? ___ Users mailing list Users@openvz.org https://lists.openvz.org/mailman/listinfo/users

I figured that 'vzctl start CTID --wait' usually adds a line to the CT's /etc/inittab: vz:2345:once:touch /.vzfifo However, such a line is never added to Debian 7 CTs. On Debian 6 CTs, this line is automatically added whenever the CT is started, even if it has been removed manually. A work-around is to add the line manually to /etc/inittab, but I still wonder why the automatism doesn't work for Debian 7 CTs. Please file a bug for vzctl, I will take a look soon. Thanks for addressing this issue. In your notes on bugzilla [ Just for the sake of people reading it: https://bugzilla.openvz.org/2859 ] you mention that the original reason for the hangs is the missing lo interface. Yes, this is what I found with the official Debian 7 templates (that I will fix soon). In fact, on the CT I tested lo was configured properly and up and running. I should mention that I made the template myself according to the instructions found here [1]. Hey, this makes it a perfect example of how to NOT file bug reports! ;-) When you mentioned the scripts in /etc/init/ I found that all our flawlessly running Debian 6 CTs don't have this folder at all. I removed it completely also in the Debian 7 CT and from then on I was able to start it flawlessly with the --wait flag. Good that you have mentioned it, now I see that /etc/init existence doesn't mean we have upstart, so we have to patch /etc/inittab regardless. Will fix vzctl accordingly soon. I wonder about two things: * How important are those scripts in /etc/init, considering that I was running Debian CTs for years without them? This is standard upstart directory. Upstart can be used used instead of sysvinit. Google for debian upstart for more details. * How did that folder /etc/init sneak into my self-made Debian 7 template? Perhaps dpkg -S can shed some light? I observe this on one of my Debian boxes (not running upstart): root@kir-deb71-ovz:~# dpkg -S /etc/init sysvinit-utils, ifupdown, udev: /etc/init /etc/init/ isn't a standard path in Debian. Apparently it is (if you choose to use upstart). ___ Users mailing list Users@openvz.org https://lists.openvz.org/mailman/listinfo/users

Can you test this patch? http://git.openvz.org/?p=vzctl;a=commit;h=9a2a60f7f You can either build and install it yourself: git clone git://git.openvz.org/vzctl cd vzctl ./autogen.sh ./configure ./setver -U Alternatively, I just build packages for you to test: http://download.openvz.org/utils/nightlies/vzctl/4.6.1-6.g9a2a60f/ More info on test builds are at http://openvz.org/Download/vzctl/nightly ___ Users mailing list Users@openvz.org https://lists.openvz.org/mailman/listinfo/users
