I’m running Manjaro (latest), and installed following packages: lxd, lxc, lxc-templates
I get this when i want to start lxc , it downloads but i dont know why this happens when it tries to run it:
sudo lxc launch images:fedora/37 myfed
Error: Get "http://unix.socket/1.0": dial unix /var/lib/lxd/unix.socket: connect: no such file or directory
although it downloads, it can’t start it
i checked in /var/lib/lxd/unix.socket: and i have proper permission, for group lxd as it should be
Hello! @badmintonlock
The error message you received suggests that LXD is unable to locate the Unix socket file /var/lib/lxd/unix.socket. This socket file is used by LXD to communicate with the LXD daemon.
I personally don’t use Manjaro but this error in particular is due to a service not running or without permissions
Check that the LXD daemon is running. You can do this by running the following commands:
sudo systemctl status lxd
sudo systemctl enable lxd
sudo systemctl start lxd
If your user account is not a member of the lxd group, you can add it using the following command:
sudo usermod -aG lxd
Regards.
