Cannot launch centos7 images using a jammy host

Cross posting from the charmhub forum, as I think this issue is better raised here.

Hello,

I am running Jammy on a dev box and am hitting some interesting issues launching centos7 lxd containers. Please keep in mind that launching the containers works as expected using 20.04.

I seemed to be blocked from using centos7 containers in general and with Juju.

$ juju add-machine --series centos7

$ juju status | grep centos7
15       pending                  juju-91c14c-15  centos7      Running
$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID:	Ubuntu
Description:	Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS
Release:	22.04
Codename:	jammy

$ lxd --version
5.6

$ snap info lxd | grep installed
installed:          5.6-794016a              (23680) 142MB -

$ snap info juju | grep installed
installed:          2.9.34                       (20510) 95MB classic 

Try to launch centos7 upstream image.

$ lxc launch images:centos/7/amd64

Error: The image used by this instance requires a CGroupV1 host system
Try `lxc info --show-log local:massive-dinosaur` for more info

If I build and import my own centos7 as opposed to using the upstream image, I am able launch the centos7 container, but it doesn’t get an ipaddress.

 $ lxc launch juju/centos7/amd64 jca
Creating jca
Starting jca

$ lxc list | grep jca
| jca                 | RUNNING |                        |      | CONTAINER       | 0         |

We can see the ubuntu container does get an ipaddress though.

$ lxc launch ubuntu:22.04
Creating the instance
Instance name is: certain-mammoth
Starting certain-mammoth

$ lxc list | grep certain-mammoth
| certain-mammoth     | RUNNING | 10.158.215.85 (eth0)   |      | CONTAINER       | 0         |

Introspecting a bit further, it seems the instance interface just doesn’t want to take an ip address, even when I try to force it by defining a static ip :frowning:

# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
DEVICE=eth0
ONBOOT=yes
IPADDR=10.158.215.242
NETMASK=255.255.255.0

        TX packets 21  bytes 1662 (1.6 KiB)
        TX errors 0  dropped 0 overruns 0  carrier 0  collisions 0

I suppose this is more of a lxd issue than a Juju issue, but Juju is definitely affected as centos7 deployments no longer work using the lxd/localhost provider.

Any ideas?

Possibly I need to file a bug with lxd somewhere.

Thank you

You can’t run CentOS7 or Ubuntu 16.04 or a bunch of older distros on stock Ubuntu 22.04. That’s because of the switch to cgroup2.

Reboot your host in cgroup1 mode and things will behave.

The problem is far more than just the missing network address, your entire systemd is crashed at this stage so no unit will start at all.

Thank you, @stgraber. This makes sense. What do I need to do to switch to using cgroup1?

See Centos/7 containers don't get an IPv4 address
