[SOLVED] Update from 6 > 7 can't start LXC container

[t_heinrich]

Hello,
I did a clean install with version 7.
When I try to open an LXC container which I used with version 6 I got the following message:

run_buffer: 316 Script exited with status 2 lxc_init: 816 Failed to run lxc.hook.pre-start for container "105" __lxc_start: 2007 Failed to initialize container "105" TASK ERROR: startup for container '105' failed

Other LXC container works fine.
Have somebody an idea what I can do?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers Thomas

hi,

please post the container configuration here (pct config CTID) and your pveversion -v

Hi oguz,
thanks for your support.
In the meantime I found my mistake. There was a link to an old HDD which isn't there anymore.
After deleting the entry in the webinterface for the LXC container I could start the LXC container correctly.

To be honest I'm not sure how to get to the "pct config CTID" inside my "vzdump-lxc-106-2021_09_16-12_52_19.tar.zst" backup file.

Do you have a link for me with further information how I can get it for future use?

Thank you.

Cheers Thomas

sorry if it was unclear, pct is our command line tool for managing containers [0], so you'd run it on the shell to get the output from the container configuration.

thanks for your support.
