Hi!
When I try to run my LXC machine it takes about 5min when it will be available.
Do you know what can be wrong and why?

Have you checked the syslog/journal in the container? Perhaps network (often has a 5min timeout) or something else is hanging on startup.
 
My syslog showed me a problem

Do you have any idea why I have this problem? But finally, everything works fine.
 
Did you configure DHCP for IPv6 without a DHCP server running in that network?
Please provide the config of that container (pct config <CTID>).
 
Thank you for your reply. Yes, it is a problem with ipv6. I need to configure it on my Mikrotik router.
