Hi there,
I've got a strange problem. I have upgraded my root server today and
changed all vservers to the legacy method.
All are running fine except two. When I try to start them, I get a
"vcontext: chroot(): Permission denied" message (see below).
The config directory of these vservers are exactly the same as the other
vservers' config directories.
I have no idea why exactly these vservers aren't running. Maybe it's
something within them?
Some information about the system is below (vserver-info). It's Debian
Sarge.
The working vservers have been installed some years ago. The vservers
which are not working are about 5 months old. So they have beend
installed with a newer version of vserver-debiantools.
Anybody any ideas?
Regards
Manfred

vcontext: chroot(): Permission denied
An error occured while executing the vserver startup sequence; when
there are no other messages, it is very likely that the init-script
(/etc/init.d/rc 3) failed.
Common causes are:
* /etc/rc.d/rc on Fedora Core 1 and RH9 fails always; the 'apt-rpm' build
method knows how to deal with this, but on existing installations,
appending 'true' to this file will help.
