[Bug 1451232] Re: container does not receive IP address after 15.04 upgrade

 

Thanks - could you please try

sudo systemctl stop lxc-net
sudo systemctl start lxc-net

then see whether 'ps -ef | grep lxcbr0' shows a result?  If it does
not, repeat up to two more times (and then just give up and let us know :)

If lxcbr0 does show up, does the container (with its original config)
come up fine?

I've had this issue too - the lxc-net systemd job appears to not be
correct, or it interacts badly with network-manager.  It doesn't just
not show up, it also disappears quite often.

Title:
  container does not receive IP address after 15.04 upgrade

Status in lxc package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Perhaps this is an upgrade issue, perhaps it is a installation issue.

  In either case, there should be more information about upgrading lxc.

  After upgrading to Ubuntu 15.04, my container no longer started.

  After upgrading, I had to remove the following line from the config
  file for my container:

  lxc.network.link = lxcbr0

  Here is the attempt at starting before commenting out the line:

  kevin@nereocystis:~$ sudo  lxc-start -F -n escale_build
  lxc-start: conf.c: instantiate_veth: 2660 failed to attach 'vethTCPSQO' to the bridge 'lxcbr0': Operation not permitted
  lxc-start: conf.c: lxc_create_network: 2943 failed to create netdev
  lxc-start: start.c: lxc_spawn: 914 failed to create the network
  lxc-start: start.c: __lxc_start: 1164 failed to spawn 'escale_build'
  lxc-start: lxc_start.c: main: 344 The container failed to start.
  lxc-start: lxc_start.c: main: 348 Additional information can be obtained by setting the --logfile and --logpriority options.

  
  After commenting out this line, the container starts, but no IP address is assigned in the container.

  But no IP address was assigned:

  No DHCPOFFERS received.
  No working leases in persistent database - sleeping.
  done.

  
  Eventually, I purged lxc, and reinstalled it, with the same results.

  I also tried creating a new container from scratch using the
  instructions in:

  https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/lxc.html#lxc-network

  sudo lxc-create --template download --name u1

  Again, no IP address.
