You may have two versions of LXD installed somehow (deb & snap) which could explain the output, or you may also have your CLI configured to look at remote system, please post:

  • lxc remote list
  • which lxc
  • dpkg -l | grep lxd
  • snap list

=> Sir, The output of the following are,

“lxc remote list”

Yeah, you have both the LXD deb and snapped installed, so that matches the symptoms.
Since there’s nothing running on the deb version of LXD, removing the lxd and lxd-client debs should fix your setup.

Got it sir! and yes you are right, i have been using 2 packages of lxd. i just completely removed lxd and lxd client and also removed its snap package and again installed with “sudo apt install lxd”, i think it installs lxd deb. and now its working fine. Thanks so much
