Install nginx in a privileged container

[Zamana]

Hi!

After creating a privileged container with Debian 10 template image, I'm unable to install Nginx:

The most relevant part of the issue is here:

(...)
Setting up libnginx-mod-http-image-filter (1.14.2-2+deb10u3) ...
Setting up nginx-full (1.14.2-2+deb10u3) ...

What could be the cause of this error?

Thanks.
Regards.

If you want to run a webserver that is accessible from the internet, I really would recommend using a VM. They are way more secure compared to a LXC. Especially compared to a privileged LXC. And you won't need to solve problems like this.

Hi!

Thanks for reply.

In this particular context, this webserver will work as a reverse proxy only, for an intranet site (so, no internet access). In this sense I could use Caddy for example (this idea just occurred to me now by reading your reply).

But, anyway, is there a way to fix this?

Hi!

So it seems that something that I installed affected the container ability to install Nginx.

I installed:
lsb-release, vim, docker and docker-compose.
