[Bug 1373981] Re: ubuntu 14.10 server, amd64 - lxc-start fails to start container

 

** Package changed: lxc (Ubuntu) => linux (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => Confirmed

** Description changed:

+ =========================================
+ ec2-run-instances ami-3021fb58 -t m1.small
+ 
+ ssh into the instance,
+ 
+ sudo ip link add type veth
+ 
+ fails.  I also often cannot log in.  I think it's just a bad
+ ami, but am not sure.
+ =========================================
  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
  
- 
  This server is running on AWS EC2.
