Re: [libvirt] Unable to start container on Fedora 17 with kernel 3.8.0

Hello, I've had some trouble starting a Linux Container with libvirt. Here's my setup: 1. I've downloaded libvirt-1.0.3.tar.gz from [1] and issued: - ./configure --prefix=/usr - make - make install - ldconfig 2. I've started the libvirtd service: - sudo service libvirtd start Starting libvirtd (via systemctl): Warning: Unit file of created job changed on disk, 'systemctl --system daemon-reload' recommended. [ OK ] 3. I've defined the lxc domain: <domain type='lxc'> <name>foo</name> <uuid>2d1fa65a-0dbf-46e3-3a5c-ebc53e3d0c25</uuid> <memory unit='KiB'>500000</memory> <currentMemory unit='KiB'>500000</currentMemory> <vcpu placement='static'>1</vcpu> <os> <type arch='x86_64'>exe</type> <init>/bin/init</init> </os> <clock offset='utc'/> <on_poweroff>destroy</on_poweroff> <on_reboot>restart</on_reboot> <on_crash>destroy</on_crash> <devices> <emulator>/usr/libexec/libvirt_lxc</emulator> <filesystem type='mount' accessmode='passthrough'> <source dir='/usr/var/lib/lxc/foo/rootfs'/> <target dir='/'/> </filesystem> <console type='pty'> <target type='serial' port='0'/> </console> <console type='pty'> <target type='serial' port='1'/> </console> <console type='pty'> <target type='serial' port='2'/> </console> <console type='pty'> <target type='serial' port='3'/> </console> </devices> </domain> When issuing virsh -c lxc:/// start foo I get the following error: error: Failed to start domain foo error: internal error guest failed to start: PATH=/bin:/sbin TERM=linux container=lxc-libvirt container_uuid=2d1fa65a-0dbf-46e3-3a5c-ebc53e3d0c25 LIBVIRT_LXC_UUID=2d1fa65a-0dbf-46e3-3a5c-ebc53e3d0c25 LIBVIRT_LXC_NAME=foo /bin/init 2013-03-26 17:09:34.186+0000: 1: info : libvirt version: 1.0.3 2013-03-26 17:09:34.186+0000: 1: error : lxcContainerMountBasicFS:563 : Failed to mount /selinux on /selinux type selinuxfs flags=e opts=(null): No such device
