[lxc-users] Unprivileged containers do not auto-start

[Robert Pendell]

OS: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS x86_64
Kernel: Host-Supplied 3.14.1
Provider: Linode
Host Virtualization: Xen Paravirtualized
LXC Version: 1.0.3-0ubuntu3

On a fresh boot unprivileged containers are not starting automatically
even though they have lxc.start.auto enabled.  lxc-ls as the user
confirms autostart is enabled as well.

Is this a bug or intended or am I just missing something really
obvious in my configuration?

Config:
shinji at icarus:~$ cat ~/.local/share/lxc/gateone/config
# Template used to create this container: /usr/share/lxc/templates/lxc-download
# Parameters passed to the template:
# For additional config options, please look at lxc.conf(5)

# Distribution configuration
lxc.include = /usr/share/lxc/config/centos.common.conf
lxc.include = /usr/share/lxc/config/centos.userns.conf
lxc.arch = x86

# Container specific configuration
lxc.id_map = u 0 100000 65536
lxc.id_map = g 0 100000 65536
lxc.rootfs = /home/shinji/.local/share/lxc/gateone/rootfs
lxc.utsname = gateone

# Network configuration
lxc.network.type = veth
lxc.network.link = lxcbr0
lxc.network.flags = up

# Fixed mac address for static assignment via dnsmasq on host
lxc.network.hwaddr = 62:A9:A7:57:D2:CC

# Autostart baby!
lxc.start.auto = 1
