Lab 3.2 privilege container cannot start

Trying to start the container as per the Lab privilege part fails with:
lxc-start: priv-cont: lxccontainer.c: wait_on_daemonized_start: 877 Received container state "ABORTING" instead of "RUNNING" lxc-start: priv-cont: tools/lxc_start.c: main: 306 The container failed to start lxc-start: priv-cont: tools/lxc_start.c: main: 309 To get more details, run the container in foreground mode lxc-start: priv-cont: tools/lxc_start.c: main: 311 Additional information can be obtained by setting the --logfile and --logpriority options
Here is the log:

The host is a VM running Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. All the previous steps of the Lab 3.2 went well. Searching online did not help.
Any thoughts?

Did you happen to try the lab on the recommended guest OS Ubuntu 20.04 LTS? The current format of the lab guide has been tested on 20.04 LTS, and not yet on 22.04 LTS. I would expect things to change when the lab content will migrate to the latest LTS release.

Hey there @chrispokorni. Thank you for trying to help. Unfortunately no, I haven't tried it on 20.045 nor do I have the possiblity of doing so. In any case, if the distribution is the only source of the problem, it should be doable to find a solution I think ... :-)

(or do you think it is such a bad idea to try and proceed with this course on 22.04 ?)

I am currently investigating on Ubuntu 22 but I am not seeing consistent results. For me, the privileged container starts, but the unprivileged container does not. On Ubuntu 20 it is the exact opposite. So as of yet I do not have a workaround that would produce consistent results across environments.

I see, thanks.
Should I expect more trouble down the road ? Would you advise I restart the course on a 20.04 Ubuntu? I mean I don't care about this particular exercise, it is the rest of the course that worries me

As of now, I only know of potential issues when installing Podman and Buildah in later chapters. All LXC, Podman, and Buildah related issues happened almost at once, at the same time as other Open Source projects have suffered minor complications. It all seems unrelated, but unexpected and frustrating nonetheless.
While a temp workaround is posted here for Podman (on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS), I have yet to review the entire content of the lab guide to assess the overall impact and update steps where possibly needed.

Thanks.
