Hi,
could you start the container with lxc-start -n 2100 -F -l DEBUG -o /tmp/lxc-2100.log and share the contents of the log file? Also, please provide the output of pveversion -v.

here is log file

Just to let you know that we have installed Proxmox from OVH templates on OVH dedicated Server.

From the log file:

lxc-start 2100 20200602124421.916 INFO conf - conf.c:run_script_argv:340 - Executing script "/usr/share/lxcfs/lxc.mount.hook" for container "2100", config section "lxc"
lxc-start 2100 20200602124421.918 DEBUG conf - conf.c:run_buffer:312 - Script exec /usr/share/lxcfs/lxc.mount.hook 2100 lxc mount produced output: missing /var/lib/lxcfs/proc/ - lxcfs not running?
lxc-start 2100 20200602124421.918 ERROR conf - conf.c:run_buffer:323 - Script exited with status 1

What's the output of systemctl status lxcfs.service? Please try starting the service if it is not running.

To fix this other error (which isn't blocking AFAICT):

lxc-start: 2100: utils.c: lxc_can_use_pidfd: 1834 Kernel does not support pidfds

using a newer kernel should be enough.

Thank you very much the issue is fixed by starting lxcfs service . all is well .

issue Resolved.
