Public bug reported: I had previously created an lxc container successfully using either: $ sudo lxc-create -t download -n test_cn -or- $ sudo lxc-create -t ubuntu -n test_cn
However... when trying to start it fails with the following? $ sudo lxc-start -n test_cn lxc-start: failed to create vethBQ6TPB-vethV9VF9A : Operation not supported lxc-start: failed to create netdev lxc-start: failed to create the network lxc-start: failed to spawn 'test_cn' lxc-start: The container failed to start. lxc-start: Additional information can be obtained by setting the --logfile and --log-priority options. To check if the "veth" kernel module is loaded I updated the server and rebooted I ran "sudo modprobe veth" and it shows an error also? $ sudo modprobe veth modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'veth': Cannot allocate memory This server is running on AWS EC2. $ uname -a Linux ip-10-69-148-9 3.16.0-10-generic #15-Ubuntu SMP Thu Aug 21 16:26:44 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1373981 Title: ubuntu 14.10 server, amd64 - lxc-start fails to start container To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1373981/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
