Package: lxc
Version: 0.9.0-12
Severity: normal
Hi,
I'm using lxc 0.9.0-12 from experimental on Debian sid. After having
created a container I cannot log in to it. After appending -x to the
shebang in /usr/share/lxc/templates/lxc-debconfig and using the readline
debconf-frontend (otherwise the console output would be overwritten) I
saw the following two pieces in the output:
+ chroot /var/lib/lxc/debian01/rootfs /usr/bin/env -i LC_ALL=C
PATH=/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin TERM=rxvt-unicode DEBIAN_FRONTEND=readline
DEBIAN_PRIORITY=critical DEBCONF_NONINTERACTIVE_SEEN=true
DEBCONF_NOWARNINGS=true ftp_proxy= http_proxy= DEBIAN_FRONTEND=readline
DEBIAN_PRIORITY=critical live-debconfig
chpasswd: (user josch ) pam_chauthtok() failed, error:
Authentication token manipulation error
chpasswd: (line 1, user josch ) password not changed
and
+ chroot /var/lib/lxc/debian01/rootfs /usr/bin/env -i LC_ALL=C
PATH=/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin TERM=rxvt-unicode DEBIAN_FRONTEND=readline
DEBIAN_PRIORITY=critical DEBCONF_NONINTERACTIVE_SEEN=true
DEBCONF_NOWARNINGS=true ftp_proxy= http_proxy= DEBIAN_FRONTEND=readline
DEBIAN_PRIORITY=critical live-debconfig
Usage: useradd [options] LOGIN
useradd -D
useradd -D [options]
Options:
-b, --base-dir BASE_DIR base directory for the home directory of the
new account
-c, --comment COMMENT GECOS field of the new account
-d, --home-dir HOME_DIR home directory of the new account
-D, --defaults print or change default useradd configuration
-e, --expiredate EXPIRE_DATE expiration date of the new account
-f, --inactive INACTIVE password inactivity period of the new account
-g, --gid GROUP name or ID of the primary group of the new
account
-G, --groups GROUPS list of supplementary groups of the new
account
-h, --help display this help message and exit
-k, --skel SKEL_DIR use this alternative skeleton directory
-K, --key KEY=VALUE override /etc/login.defs defaults
-l, --no-log-init do not add the user to the lastlog and
faillog databases
-m, --create-home create the user's home directory
-M, --no-create-home do not create the user's home directory
-N, --no-user-group do not create a group with the same name as
the user
-o, --non-unique allow to create users with duplicate
(non-unique) UID
-p, --password PASSWORD encrypted password of the new account
-r, --system create a system account
-R, --root CHROOT_DIR directory to chroot into
-s, --shell SHELL login shell of the new account
-u, --uid UID user ID of the new account
-U, --user-group create a group with the same name as the user
-Z, --selinux-user SEUSER use a specific SEUSER for the SELinux user
mapping
The passwd section from my preseed file reads:
live-debconfig live-debconfig/passwd/shadow boolean true
live-debconfig live-debconfig/passwd/root-password password root
live-debconfig live-debconfig/passwd/root-password-again password root
live-debconfig live-debconfig/passwd/user-name string josch
live-debconfig live-debconfig/passwd/user-fullname string josch
live-debconfig live-debconfig/passwd/user-password password secret
live-debconfig live-debconfig/passwd/user-password-again password secret
While this could just as well be a problem with live-debconfig or my
preseed file (is it?) I think that lxc should abort the container
creation process or at least output a warning to the user which informs
him that live-debconfig returned a non-zero exit status (I checked and
the first live-debconfig returns 1 while the second returns
2).
cheers, josch
