[SOLVED] This system lacks PPP kernel support

[jtvdw]

Hi,

I'm getting this error below: (We migrated from a old cluster to the new pve6 cluster and now I'm getting this error)

root@illovo-pptp:~# pon illovo
Couldn't open the /dev/ppp device: Operation not permitted
modprobe: ERROR: ../libkmod/libkmod.c:507 kmod_lookup_alias_from_builtin_file() could not open builtin file '/lib/modules/5.0.15-1-pve/modules.builtin.bin'
/usr/sbin/pppd: Sorry - this system lacks PPP kernel support

What can I do to fix this and let me know if you need more details.

Thanks.

hi,

is this in a container? if yes, could you post the config?

Hi,

Yes this is a container and below is the config:

did you reboot after the upgrade? could you post pveversion -v too?

also: ls /lib/modules/*/modules.builtin.bin

could you try adding these to your container config:

lxc.cgroup.devices.allow: c 108:0 rwm
lxc.mount.entry: /dev/ppp dev/ppp none bind,create=file
