Virtuozzo / OpenVZ networking broken for Redhat 7.X VEs

Sun, 01 Oct 2006 14:23:11 -0400

The problem:
A few months ago we noticed that after updating either Virtuozzo or OpenVZ utilities, we would no longer be able to reboot Redhat 7 virtual environments (VEs - or VPS virtual private servers]).

We tracked this down to the fact that Virtuozzo and OpenVZ have the code:

CP='/bin/cp -f --preserve=mode,ownership'

in the files: dists/scripts/redhat-add_ip.sh & dists/scripts/functions

The above scripts are executed in the VEs to setup networking - the problem is that RedHat 7 supports only 'cp --preserve' and not 'cp --preserve=...' and therefore the startup scripts can't run and setup networking in the VEs.

The Solution:
The solution is easy:

Just modify: dists/scripts/redhat-add_ip.sh & dists/scripts/functions (in /etc/vz for OpenVZ or /etc/sysconfig/vz for Virtuozzo) and remove the "=mode,ownership" text. That will fix it.

Important: You must manually make the above changes after any time that Virtuozz or OpenVZ releases a new version of the virtuozzo tools because they will override this.

(update) Bug Report submitted to OpenVZ:
We opened a bug report with OpenVZ and they've responded, however we're unsure if they will fix it - we asked for clarification but we've received no response.

Of course we recommend the b2evolution software to start your own blog and more but there's plenty of choice here. Other popular web apps include WordPress, phpBB and Gallery.
