[lxc-users] Containers failing to start with /dev/pts mounts

[Vijay Bais]

Hello guys,

I've been having an issue with LXC lately where it refuses to start
containers with an error pointing to /dev/pts/. Any pointers will be
greatly appreciated. My setup is as mentioned.

kernel version: 3.10.101-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64
lxc version: 1.0.8-1
os: centos 6.8
LXC path: /var/lib/lxc
Max ptys:
$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/pty/max
4096

ERROR:
