I have the same issue.
My vps is 16.04.5 LTS(openvz) This bug however has quite an impact. After reboot sshd server fails to start since /var/run/sshd folder is not created since systemd-tmpfiles- setup service failed to start. I have applied the temporary solution above and can confirm it works ok. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1804847 Title: systemd=229-4ubuntu21.8 use of fchownat failes on some systems (openvz) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/+bug/1804847/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
