Hi

https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Convert_OpenVZ_to_LXC

than I have on start this error



lxc-start: lxc_start.c: main: 344 The container failed to start.
lxc-start: lxc_start.c: main: 346 To get more details, run the container in foreground mode.
lxc-start: lxc_start.c: main: 348 Additional information can be obtained by setting the --logfile and --logpriority options.
TASK ERROR: command 'lxc-start -n 100' failed: exit code 1
 
Please post
  • pveversion -v
  • pct config 100
and get a debug log by starting the container in foreground mode:
"lxc-start -n 100 -F -lDEBUG -o lxc-100.log"
and post the log here (if the container starts, you can shut it down with "pct shutdown 100" in another shell).
 
I have the same problem after migration offline from another node..

missing codepage or helper program, or other error

In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so.
