[Bug 1413927] Re: user lxc containers fail to start under systemd: login name=systemd cgroup is not owned by user

 

Hmm, so here the user didn't own the directories which was a good part
of the issue I suspect.

Title:
  user lxc containers fail to start under systemd: login name=systemd
  cgroup is not owned by user

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  When a user logs in, systemd-logind should create cgroups for the
  user, with the directory (i.e.
  /user.slice/user-1000.slice/session-c2.scope) owned by the user.  This
  is no longer hapening for the name=systemd cgroup.  This prevents
  containers from starting.  (If lxc were to simply not create/use that
  controller, then it would prevent system in the container from using
  it).

  I wanted to test the new lxc with lxcfs. A system container (with
  upstart or systemd) works perfectly well now (great!), but user
  containers regressed:

  $ lxc-create -n v1 -t download -- -d ubuntu -r vivid -a amd64
  $ lxc-start -n v1  -F
  lxc-start: cgmanager.c: lxc_cgmanager_enter: 694 call to cgmanager_move_pid_sync failed: invalid request
  lxc-start: start.c: __lxc_start: 1099 failed to spawn 'v1'
  lxc-start: lxc_start.c: main: 345 The container failed to start.

  My host is running systemd, but cgmanager is running (i. e. it's not
  bug 1400394, I enabled cgmanager.service).
