Container fails to start after upgrade, not seeing anything obvious.

lxc-start 61001 20230704010253.978 DEBUG conf - ../src/lxc/conf.c:run_buffer:311 - Script exec /usr/share/lxc/hooks/lxc-pve-prestart-hook 61001 lxc pre-start produced output: mount: /var/lib/lxc/.pve-staged-mounts/rootfs: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/mapper/pve-vm--61001--disk--0, missing codepage or helper program, or other error.

mounting it by hand works, so I don't think the LVM data is damaged.

mount /dev/mapper/pve-vm-61001--disk--0 /tmp/1

I was able to rsync data out of the app folders for backup, no read errors. Location also looks valid to me:

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Jul 3 13:26 pve-data -> ../dm-5
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Jul 3 13:26 pve-data_tdata -> ../dm-3

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Jul 3 13:26 pve-data-tpool -> ../dm-4

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Jul 3 13:26 pve-vm--6106--disk--0 -> ../dm-7



debug is less than helpful.

And proxmox CAN mount it correctly, because I can "move storage" from one storage to another, and it's rsync'ing as needed

Only two LXC containers on this host, other one started just fine.

Update: Moved to ZFS storage - VM starts fine. Moved back to local-LVM - fails to start, same error message.

setting "ACL = disabled" in the UI (acl=0 in the conf file) prevents the container from starting. Worked fine under pve7. Works fine on ZFS.


DOES NOT WORK ON LVM:
rootfs: local-lvm:vm-61001-disk-0,acl=0,mountoptions=lazytime;noatime;nosuid,size=20G

WORKS ON LVM:
rootfs: local-lvm:vm-61001-disk-0,size=20G,mountoptions=lazytime;noatime;nosuid

I've searched the release notes, didn't find anything about ACL changes. Is this an intended change?

here is what worked for me

Code:
pct restore 130 my_pbs_server:backup/ct/130/2023-02-11T04:20:52Z --storage data --rootfs data:10,mountoptions=noatime,quota=0

Great suggestion - hope this gets fixed in 8.1?
