Hi all,

I am using proxmox since a couple of months without any issues. Thanks to all of those involved in proxmox !!!!!!

Yesterday I found an issue with my openvz servers running on ubuntu 9.10. My server was rebooted due to a power failure. After that I couldn't reach some of the ubuntu vps anymore. After some investigation i found out that the issue is related to the network interface. The output from ifconfig is empty

Code:
siproxmox2:~# vzctl start 104
Starting container ...
Container is unmounted
Container is mounted
Adding IP address(es): 217.X.Y.56
Setting CPU units: 1000
Setting CPUs: 1
Set hostname: server104.test.net
File resolv.conf was modified
Setting quota ugidlimit: 0
Container start in progress...
siproxmox2:~# vzctl enter 104
entered into CT 104
root@user:/# ifconfig
root@user:/#
after starting the network stack its working again

Code:
root@server104:/# start networking
networking stop/waiting
root@server104:/# ifconfig

Does anybody can help me to solve this issue?
I found this https://bugs.launchpad.net/openvz-kernel/+bug/436130 Comment 44 ff
But this doesn't helped me. I copied the openvz.conf into the openVZ instance server104 /etc/init/openvz.conf.

Update: This happens only to karmic after an apt-get update. Its fine when running with the default template without any changes.

we do not provide a karmic template so if you got issue with this template contact the template provider.

at least, post a download link that others can try to reproduce the issue.
