E.g. > > # cat /sys/fs/cgroup/machine.slice/cgroup.controllers > memory pids > "cat /sys/fs/cgroup/machine.slice/cgroup.controllers" is showing the same result when "DefaultMemoryAccounting" is set to "Yes" as when it is set to "No": cpu memory pids I tried what Eric said and it worked with DefaultMemoryAccounting set to "No". So what we have for now are a few workarounds to avoid the "Unable to find 'memory' cgroups controller" error and I have no clue about the root of what is wrong. How could it be marked as solved if any new or old installation has this error?
