Bug Reports

  • dlite version in use (run dlite --version):
    2.0.0-beta9

  • expected behavior:
    vm.tty has correct permissions

  • actual behavior:
    vm.tty doesn't exist when chown is run, causing dlite start to exit with an error

  • steps to reproduce
    dlite start
    this is random, caused by a race condition

opening this issue for myself :)

need to add some code to make sure that vm.tty exists before attempting to change permissions on it.

i ran across that today, too.
after rebooting my macbook with dlite still running, i was stuck with that message when trying to start dlite again.

dlite start - tty chown fails
dlite stop - done.
dlite start - tty chown fails
dlite start - CONFLICT
dlite stop - done.
...

i ended up re-running dlite init,
everything back to normal now...

I have this problem too. can't get dlite running at all anymore.
it worked in the past, running dlite stop dlite start several times one after another.
this is the message i get:

~ > dlite start
Starting the virtual machine: ERROR!
chown /Users/con/.dlite/vm.tty: no such file or directory

update: maybe I should add that I have just rebooted my mac. before shutdown I gracefully stoped the running container and ran dlite stop to stop the virtual machine..

Same issue. Running

dlite init

resolved it.
