[lxc-users] Error: Error opening startup config file: "loading config file for the container failed" after upgrading to LXD 3.0.1

[Tomasz Chmielewski]

This is what's happening after upgrading to LXD 3.0.1 and trying to run 
"lxc shell":

# lxc shell webpagetest
Error: Error opening startup config file: "loading config file for the 
container failed"
Error: EOF

# lxc exec webpagetest /bin/bash
Error: Error opening startup config file: "loading config file for the 
container failed"
Error: EOF


"lxc config edit webpagetest" works fine.


How to fix that? Tried "systemctl restart lxd", but it didn't help.
