Multiple errors

I purchased a license in hope that I could manage my lxc containers. My containers are LVM based and your latest software claims to support that. but it seems that your LXC related code doesn't support claim.

  1. When I ran a detection of containers they were all detected but none of them showed as running.
  2. I somehow added one of them but when I tried using ssh user name / password + sudo any command over ssh hangs indefinitely
  3. I tried to update password on the container, but even though container specified as LVM based your software tries accessing vi /dev/lxc/hostname/rootfs//etc/xxxx.txt for example which doesn't make any sense. It fails because /dev/lxc/hostname is a block device and not a path to rootfs as if it would be in the filebased container.
  4. I managed manually to add a key to root user in the container and then ssh login was successful but then it doesn't even attempt to install webmin. Why not?
  5. Manually installing webmin, and readding machine worked but it told me that background monitoring attempt failed as Webmin 1.4x or above is required. Well I had webmin 1.7x installed
  6. I stopped container and can no longer restart it. Web interface tells me that ping failed, running startup tells me that

    Failed to startup systems : The following systems cannot be started up :

Attempt to reboot tells me that

Rebooting janusgw2.teletownhall.us .. .. failed : sh: 1: lxc-restart: not found

I am using lxc 1.1.5 there is no lxc-restart command as a part of lxc package

Can you please provide a prompt response? If I cannot get things fixed, perhaps I should ask for a refund and look elsewhere?

Thank you and happy New Year.

Can any one respond please?

Cloudmin might not be able to handle all the potential settings of a manually created LXC container. However, it looks like there are a bunch of other problems that we need to fix, like incorrect access to the VM's root directory.

Are you using the standard LXC packages that come with Ubuntu 14.04?

I am using lxc 1.1 from canonical repo.

Thanks - we will do a test with Ubuntu 14.04 and LXC 1.1 to see if these issues can be resolved.

Cloudmin version 8.4 (which is just about to be released) should fix all LXC 1.1 issues.
