You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I had previously created an lxc container successfully using either:
$ sudo lxc-create -t download -n test_cn
-or-
$ sudo lxc-create -t ubuntu -n test_cn

However... when trying to start it fails with the following?
 
$ sudo lxc-start -n test_cn
lxc-start: failed to create vethBQ6TPB-vethV9VF9A : Operation not supported
lxc-start: failed to create netdev
lxc-start: failed to create the network
lxc-start: failed to spawn 'test_cn'
lxc-start: The container failed to start.
lxc-start: Additional information can be obtained by setting the --logfile and --log-priority options.

To check if the "veth" kernel module is loaded I updated the server and
rebooted

I ran "sudo modprobe veth" and it shows an error also?

$ sudo modprobe veth
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'veth': Cannot allocate memory
