LXC error getting images
Hi all,
I'm getting the following error when I create a new container.
FATAL [lxc-turnkey]: failed to download 'debian-8-turnkey-gitlab_14.0-1_amd64.tar.gz'
FATAL [lxc-turnkey]: failed to install turnkey gitlab
lxc_container: container creation template for gitlab failed
lxc_container: Error creating container gitlab
The template can't get the new filenames. What do i need to update?

We recently rebuilt GitLab
Reply 1Due to a serious GitLab vulnerability we removed the GitLab appliance and rebuilt it. My guess is that for some reason the mirror you are connecting to is a bit slow updating. Try again now and see how you go.
I know what's happening!
Reply 2Sorry my mistake. It's not the new GitLab image that is the issue. The issue is that the LXC appliance defaults to v14.0 images but they've been cleaned off the mirror. So you need to specify the version as 14.1-jessie. Do that like this:
lxc-create -n gitlab -f /etc/lxc/natbridge.conf -t turnkey -- gitlab -i /root/inithooks.conf --version=14.1-jessieObviously that assumes that you've pre-configured a inithooks.conf in /root/inithooks.conf
Great! :)
Reply 3IMO it's a bug. The LXC app should at least default to downloading the same version images as it is. Ideally it should default to downloading the current/latest images but we'd probably need to host a file somewhere to get them but that's probably doable.
It works again! [SOLVED]
Reply 4Hi Jeremy,
specifying
--version=14.1-jessie
did it!
Thanks,
