Unable to start lxd container


Recommended Posts

I am trying to launch a container with lxd and am not having any such luck.  These are the steps I followed:

https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/LXD

1. install lxd (I did not install criu and will add that for a future build)

2. manually configure kernel for lxd (I didn't do ebuild lxc or ebuild criu)

3. lxd group / user didn't exist, so I created it

4. add myself to that group

5. started lxd

6. initialized lxd (the order on the gentoo website says otherwise, but I couldn't do it in that order)

7. lxd automatically setup the network interface via the lxd service, so I didn't have the net.lxbr0 to worry about

8. images repository already existed, I just chose alpine linux since it was tiny

 

lxc launch images:alpine/3.4

I didn't do ebuild lxc or ebuild criu

lxc is a dependency for lxd

looks like problem with uid/gid maps

show me your /etc/subuid and /ect/subgid please

did you restart lxd after changing the values in subuid/subgid?
