Thanks for filing this bug. You are running with an older kernel which has the ns cgroup, but the package source from which you built your package doesn't ahve support for ns cgroup (because it has been deprecated for quite some time). If you switch to the ubuntu-lxc ppa,
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-lxc/daily sudo apt-get update the lxc version there should work. status: invalid ** Changed in: lxc (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1227092 Title: LXC Container will not start To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxc/+bug/1227092/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
