With cgfs i actually wasn't able to start the container in the first place. I've now fixed at least that.
it wasn't the mkdir which was failing, but the subsequent attempt to attach itself to it. That's because while cgmanager used to chown the child files after creating a directory for us, cgfs wasn't doing that. Now I'm at least at the point you were at - i can boot, but reboot hangs, almost the same way: Failed to create /lxc/x1/init.scope control group: No such file or directory Failed to allocate manager object: No such file or directory [!!!!!!] Failed to allocate manager object, freezing. Note the error is not ENOENT. When I check the rootfs after the fact, there is no init.scope directory... Debug statement in lxcfs suggests that no mkdir was ever called. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to lxc in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1514690 Title: rebooting container with systemd >= 226 fails to create /lxc/adt- xenial/init.scope control group To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxc/+bug/1514690/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
