Debugging (verbose logging) LXC startup process in Proxmox VE

Sometime you run into problem and your LXC container do not start.  Proxmox VE graphical UI is very good, but it does not provide enough information about what is wrong.

To get the most detailed information, you should try to start the LXC container from command using verbose logging. Here is the command you should use:


(replace [ID] with your actual LXC container ID)

lxc-start -n [ID] -F -l DEBUG -o /tmp/lxc-[ID].log


Then, to view the log use this command:

cat /tmp/lxc-[ID].log
