Re: [libvirt] simple LXC/libvirt busybox container (Unable to get cgroup)

i'm trying to get even the simplest busybox container with libvirt+LXC with very limited success.  I feel l am missing something supremely simple for me to be hung on this for weeks. i dont see anything interesting in domain log, but getting this error from "LIBVIRT_DEBUG=1 libvirtd": 05:27:56.113: error : lxcDomainGetInfo:462 : internal error Unable to get cgroup for arch-nano 05:27:56.113: debug : virDomainFree:2004 : domain=0x81d8e68 05:27:56.113: debug : virUnrefDomain:422 : unref domain 0x81d8e68 arch-nano 1 05:27:56.113: debug : virReleaseDomain:376 : release domain 0x81d8e68 arch-nano 05:27:56.113: debug : virReleaseDomain:392 : unref connection 0x81dc0f0 2 05:27:56.113: debug : remoteSerializeError:141 : prog=536903814 ver=1 proc=16 type=1 serial=4, msg=internal error Unable to get cgroup for arch-nano i've been using this root filesystem layout: [root@PHS-001 arch-nano]# tree . |-- bin |   |-- cat -> ../sbin/busybox |   |-- chdir -> ../sbin/busybox |   |-- chmod -> ../sbin/busybox |   |-- ls -> ../sbin/busybox |   |-- rm -> ../sbin/busybox |   |-- sh -> ../sbin/busybox |   `-- vi -> ../sbin/busybox |-- dev |   `-- pts |-- etc |-- proc |-- sbin |   |-- busybox |   `-- init -> busybox `-- sys all folders besides /bin and /sbin were created by libvirt.  i tried using the /sbin/init script previously suggested: #!/sbin/busybox sh but i get a similar results either way (script/symlink):  8173 ?        Ss     0:00 /usr/lib/libvirt-git/libvirt_lxc --name arch-nano --console 11 --background  8175 pts/0    Ss+    0:00 init  8177 ?        Ss     0:00 init  8181 ?        Zs     0:00 [init] <defunct>  8182 ?        Zs     0:00 [init] <defunct>  8183 ?        Zs     0:00 [init] <defunct> "busybox init" doc says that without an /etc/inittab, sh will be started on /dev/tty2... im am using this config: <domain type='lxc'>  <name>arch-nano</name>  <memory>500000</memory>  <os>    <type>exe</type>    <init>/sbin/init</init>  </os>  <devices>    <filesystem type='mount'>      <source dir='/vps/dom/arch-nano'/>      <target dir='/'/>    </filesystem>  </devices> </domain> on this config i tried removing the console/serial section altogether, but i attempted many configurations of serial/console, including changing the <target> to "2", in attempt to match busybox default.
