Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: liblxc Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Galen G. Brownsmith (marphod) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Configuration files are comment-location sensative Initial Comment: Platform: CentOS6.4, with a 3.8.8 Xen-enabled Kernel (kernel-xen repository) LXC Version: 0.8.0-rc2 (rpmforge repository) Command line: lxc-start -n centos-template -l DEBUG -o start.log The entire content of the error log was (set at DEBUG) when starting the container: lxc-start 1366665027.366 ERROR lxc_confile - Success - invalid ipv4 broadcast address: 192.168.253.9 lxc-start 1366665027.366 ERROR lxc_start_ui - failed to read configuration file (The logging level of the first line is a separate issue, but problematic. Probably should be NOTICE or INFO) In the end, I discovered that the lines in my config file that were problematic were lxc.network.hwaddr=4A:59:43:49:30:BF # REMEMBER TO CHANGE FOR EACH INSTANCE lxc.network.ipv4=192.168.253.9/24 # REMEMBER TO CHANGE FOR EACH INSTANCE It did not matter where in the config file these lines were located (that is, it didn't matter if there were valid config lines following or preceeding these lines). Removing the comment (or moving it to its own line) was sufficient to fix the problem. (I'm guessing that this is liblxc, rather than some other category. It could quite possibly be a bug in a 3rd party tool used to parse the config files.) (summary: config files, probably low priority, probably should document if not fixed.) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=826303&aid=3611609&group_id=163076 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Get 100% visibility into Java/.NET code with AppDynamics Lite It's a free troubleshooting tool designed for production Get down to code-level detail for bottlenecks, with <2% overhead.
