also wanted to add:

[root@server ~]# quotacheck -cmug /
quotacheck: error (1) while opening /dev/loop3

BTW no one have an idea?

Did you solve this? I have the same issue

 

[sahostking]

looks like a reboot didnt help me.

Only CentOS 7 has this issue. I know it was working before so some CentOs update must have caused this for LXC.

 

[sahostking]

Think I solved it.
I thought about it a bit and I knew it worked before so it must have been some update from CentOS side.

I decided to install an old version of CentOS 7 quota file. Current new version is quota-4.0.17 and I decided to install quota-4.0.14 from :
http://vault.centos.org/7.4.1708/os/x86_64/Packages/ using rpm -i command. Note you have to uninstall quota-nls and quota first on the container and then reinstall using rpm -i thereafter for quota-nls and then quota

And it now works perfectly hopefully.
