Description of problem: Can't get working lxc container. As mentioned in bug #835125 there are no ready templates and documentation doesn't explan how to work with them. All attempts to create and execute container without template on Fedora result in Gnome Shell restart and constant HDD polling. Maybe that's a new container starting? In any case restart or shutdown just hangs. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Name : lxc Arch : i686 Version : 0.7.5 Release : 1.fc17 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. sudo lxc-create -n lxcbox 2. sudo lxc-start -n lxcbox 3. press Ctrl-C Actual results: container stopped Expected results: Gnome Shell restarted Additional info:
Actual and Expected are mixed above. Sorry.
I'm pretty sure that's a wrong way to stop a container. You should use lxc-stop to stop your container, instead. btw, except for debugging purposes, you should always daemonize your new containers. The lxc-create should fail since you didn't provide any template but for some reason, it doesn't.
It is something wrong with lxc, beacause after start it doesn't matter in which terminal Ctr-C in pressed.
Ok. I've done some steps, but it still broken: 1. downloaded lxc-fedora from http://lxc.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=lxc/lxc;a=blob;f=templates/lxc-fedora.in;hb=f9d0d2cbbf401ffb74c251e75581174d91a02cfc 2. fixed with patch https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxc/+bug/1005951 3. disabled SELinux with `setenforce 0` After containers starts Gnome Shell shuts down, Ctrl-Alt-F1 shows mixed console + tty login prompts from the containers, attempt to login from other Ctrl-Alt-Fx screen with lxc-console results in keyboard lock down. The output doesn't appear in the box.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 17 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 17. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '17'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 17 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 17 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-07-30. Fedora 17 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
