Container with 4.15.18-1-pve kernel / kernel-headers

[Thorsten119]

Hi,

I just rolled out a new container (based on template Ubuntu 18.04 standard). "uname -a" reports me:
Linux vlr-6 4.15.18-1-pve #1 SMP PVE 4.15.18-15 (Wed, 04 Jul 2018 15:42:56 +0200) x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I want to install Asterisk from source and I tried to install the kernel header with:
apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)

... but the headers are not found. Do I have to add another repo in sources.list?

Best regards, Thorsten

The headers for the pve-kernel are in our repository (see https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Package_Repositories).
The packages are called 'pve-headers-$(uname -r)'

Hope that helps

This package is not found per default. Maybe I have to add "Proxmox VE Test Repository"?

admin@test:~$ sudo apt install pve-headers-$(uname -r)

You have to install the headers on the Proxmox VE host (not in the container).

 

[Thorsten119]

Let me explain: I want to install Asterisk (from source) within a container. For that I need the kernel headers to compile asterisk. So I need the headers within the container itself. Or do I missing something?

 

[tom]

A container is using the kernel from the host.

So if you need kernel modifications inside, a VM is probably a better choice.

before install asterisk, shutdown container
you need to disable all lxc apparmor security

add this code at /etc/pve/lxc/<vid>.conf

lxc.apparmor.profile: unconfined
lxc.mount.auto: cgroup:rw
lxc.mount.auto: proc:rw
lxc.mount.auto: sys:rw
