http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1012390 Bug ID: 1012390 Summary: systemd-nspawn does not work if a container is a symlink Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 42.2 Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem Assignee: systemd-maintainers@suse.de Reporter: ebischoff@suse.com QA Contact: ebischoff@suse.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- (not same bug as bsc#968573 - systemd fails on symlink) On openSUSE Leap 42.2 (systemd version 228), if one does # systemd-nspawn -D mycontainer and if mycontainer is a symlink to a real container directory, the command fails with message: Failed to open root file system: Too many levels of symbolic links which is annoying, because it is practical to select a container through a symbolic link. This bug is already known upstream: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/2001 and this bug report is mostly for tracking its resolution. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
