How did you create this container? If I do:
sudo lxc-create -t ubuntu -n e1 sudo chroot /var/lib/lxc/e1/rootfs apt-get update sudo chroot /var/lib/lxc/e1/rootfs apt-get install lxc sudo lxc-execute -n e1 /bin/echo hi I get lxc-init: failed to mount /dev/shm : No such file or directory hi If you don't install lxc in the container, you should get an error about not being able to execute lxc-init, but the error about not executing "(null)" is simply odd.
