2.0.7-2 & 3.0 - failed to create container path

4.9.0-6-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.88-1+deb9u1
lxc 2.0.7.2

Hi,

hoping for some assistance to get this sorted. Having set lxc.lxcpath = /srv/lxc (or any other path for the matter) in /etc/lxc.conf the creation of a container is always throwing this error

lxc-create: lxccontainer.c: do_create_container_dir: 979 No such file or directory - failed to create container path

Of course the path is existent and mounted and accessible, like said it does it for any path. Running lxc-config lxc.lxcpath is printing correctly /srv/lxc
