Hi all,

My Ubuntu container will no longer start after Ubuntu upgrade. I ran some informational commands after doing some searching on the error.
I rebooted proxmox and the VM's start fine. It's only this one container which will not start.

Any help would be appreciated.

lxc-start 101
lxc-start: 101: lxccontainer.c: wait_on_daemonized_start: 859 No such file or directory - Failed to receive the container state
lxc-start: 101: tools/lxc_start.c: main: 306 The container failed to start
lxc-start: 101: tools/lxc_start.c: main: 309 To get more details, run the container in foreground mode
lxc-start: 101: tools/lxc_start.c: main: 311 Additional information can be obtained by setting the --logfile and --logpriority options

hi,

thanks for the outputs and configuration file.

My Ubuntu container will no longer start after Ubuntu upgrade.
which ubuntu version did you upgrade to?

what do you get after running pct start 101 --debug ? (you can use [code][/code] tags when posting the output)
