    Hi guys! Sorry, but I just received an email from Hetrix saying that fmt ping monitor is down on IPv4 and on IPv6. Reported to @Cloudie. Will update when I know more. Thanks very much! Tom

    Hetrix says its monitors are again receiving ping responses from fmt as of eight minutes ago. :)

    I hope everyone gets the servers they want!

    Hey Tom, just trying it and looks like you need to add me to /etc/sub{u,g}id

    Hi! Okay, added to /etc/sub*id and also to /etc/lxc/lxc-usernet. Please let me know if you need anything else. Have fun!

    Thanks! However, I can't start my LXC container. Maybe it has something to do with lxcbr0?

    Hi again @terrorgen!

    Can you please take another look at how @subenhon got his container started?

    If you did everything the same as @subenhon, are you seeing any errors? It can be helpful for seeing errors to use the "-F" a/k/a "--foreground" option to lxc-start.

    I've been busy, so, unfortunately, I haven't tried this myself yet. But I will, eventually.

    Thanks!

    Tom

    I hope everyone gets the servers they want!

    I did, and it is stored at ~terrorgen/log if you want to take a peek.

    To save everyone's time, I think it is because of this:

    lxc-start nixos 20230220204723.613 ERROR    start - ../src/lxc/start.c:lxc_spawn:1795 - Failed to setup cgroup limits for container "nixos"

    Does the lack of systemd in Alpine contribute to this? Cause I also saw some TRACE messages related to systemd not being found.

    There are many interesting entries in those logs!

    I forgot to initialize the bridge when I last rebooted. I have to set the bridge so it starts automagically.

    Want to try starting your container again, please?

    I hope everyone gets the servers they want!

  • terrorgenterrorgen OG

    And it's still not working for me to get NixOS run on LXC.

    I tried downloading a standard debian and Ubuntu templates but was unsuccessful as well.
    Must be the configuration.

    It seems that the LXC containers might be working on this server! Thanks to @yoursunny for helping a lot to prepare the way! Thanks to @subenhon for blazing the trail!

    There are some small differences between my procedure and @subenhon's procedure. In particular, I don't understand why @subenhon seemed to get working autoconfigured IPv4 out of the box and I perhaps didn't.

    Yes, systemd won't start in LXC container due to lack of cgroups.

    See my test report:
    https://lowendspirit.com/discussion/comment/125271/#Comment_125271
    Look at lxc.init.cmd line under "these are typed by user".

    It looks like I can get a persistent Debian container by using tmux.

    fmt:~$ tmux
fmt:~$ lxc-start -F -n debian
root@debian:/#

    Inside the container, enter Ctrl-b followed by d to detach from the container and return to the host while leaving the container running.

    On the host, enter "tmux attach" to reattach to the container which is still running inside tmux.

    To stop the container from inside the container (which is inside tmux), enter "exit." To close tmux, enter "exit" again.

    I hope everyone gets the servers they want!

    Looks like bash is PID1 in your container?

    Yeah, I think so, as a way to fix certain errors noted above which are, for easy reference, repeated here:

    Now the questions are (1) why did the errors happen, and (2) can we find a configuration that prevents them from happening?

    @Not_Oles said:
    Hi @yoursunny! We were talking about setting your container quantity in /etc/lxc/lxc-usernet. Is it time to raise your quantity now? I forget how many you wanted, so can you remind me, please? Thanks!

    I typically configure "100" in lxc-usernet so it's never a limitation.
    There's really no need to place a limit here, because a user can have practically any number of containers by making creating nested containers that isn't subject to this limit.

    I got similar errors on my NixOS container about autofs and cgroup and PID1 refusing to proceed further. Looks like a systemd issue now.

    Oh just found this from https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/LXD:

    If you plan to run systemd based Linux distributions (Debian, Ubuntu, etc.), add this to /etc/conf.d/lxc:

    systemd_container=yes
    and enable both lxc and lxd to start at boot:

     rc-update add lxc
 rc-update add lxd
 rc-update add lxcfs

    If you have problems, try to enable dbus:

    rc-update add dbus
    Reboot and lxd should be working.

    Hi @superyuluo!

    Welcome to LES! I hope you enjoy your time here!

    Since you have a new account, I am sure that everyone here would enjoy meeting you. Would you please introduce yourself? Please tell us

    • who and where you are,

    • about your Linux experience, and

    • what you plan to do on the server.

    Also, to give you an account, we need your ed25519 ssh public key. Would you please post your key or a link to it?

    I am looking forward to having you join us on the server!

    Best!

    Looks like I am still not able to start my container.

    Oh just found this from https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/LXD:

    If you plan to run systemd based Linux distributions (Debian, Ubuntu, etc.), add this to /etc/conf.d/lxc:

    systemd_container=yes
    and enable both lxc and lxd to start at boot:

     rc-update add lxc
 rc-update add lxd
 rc-update add lxcfs

    If you have problems, try to enable dbus:

    rc-update add dbus
    Reboot and lxd should be working.

    @Not_Oles you'll have to do this ☺️
