[Bug 968371] Re: lxc-create -b is broken
Ah, I see. It's because $homedir is an absolute path. This will be a problem for regular containers as well. The problem is that lxc takes an absolute path to mean that the path should be prefixed by the rootfs location. It's ok for directory backed containers as it accepts the source mount of the rootfs. But for lvm backed containers, /var/lib/lxc/$container/rootfs is *not* accepted as valid. We can fix this firstly by removing the leading '/' from the second field in the fstab entry. That will do the right thing. We can also still update lxc to accept /var/lib/lxc/$container/rootfs regardless of whether that has anything to do with its rootfs, and go back to the old style fstab entries. ** Changed in: lxc (Ubuntu) Status: New = Confirmed ** Changed in: lxc (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = High -- 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/968371 Title: lxc-create -b is broken To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxc/+bug/968371/+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
[Bug 968371] Re: lxc-create -b is broken
To be clear, the workaround I recomment for now is to update lxc-start- ephemeral locally to remove the leading '/' from the second field, so that the fstab looks like: /home/gary home/gary none bind 0 0 -- 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/968371 Title: lxc-create -b is broken To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxc/+bug/968371/+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
