Note I tested this on vivid with a /downitpables script containing: #!/bin/sh
LXC_BRIDGE=lxcbr0 LXC_NETWORK="10.0.3.0/24" use_iptables_lock="-w" iptables -w -L -n > /dev/null 2>&1 || use_iptables_lock="" iptables $use_iptables_lock -D INPUT -i ${LXC_BRIDGE} -p udp --dport 67 -j ACCEPT iptables $use_iptables_lock -D INPUT -i ${LXC_BRIDGE} -p tcp --dport 67 -j ACCEPT iptables $use_iptables_lock -D INPUT -i ${LXC_BRIDGE} -p udp --dport 53 -j ACCEPT iptables $use_iptables_lock -D INPUT -i ${LXC_BRIDGE} -p tcp --dport 53 -j ACCEPT iptables $use_iptables_lock -D FORWARD -i ${LXC_BRIDGE} -j ACCEPT iptables $use_iptables_lock -D FORWARD -o ${LXC_BRIDGE} -j ACCEPT iptables $use_iptables_lock -t nat -D POSTROUTING -s ${LXC_NETWORK} ! -d ${LXC_NETWORK} -j MASQUERADE || true iptables $use_iptables_lock -t mangle -D POSTROUTING -o ${LXC_BRIDGE} -p udp -m udp --dport 68 -j CHECKSUM --checksum-fill I raun /downitpables, then did 'sudo stop lxc-net', which succeeded. Then did 'sudo start lxc-net', which succeeded. ** Changed in: lxc (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to lxc in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1429140 Title: lxc-net upstart script fails on nonexistent iptables rules Status in lxc package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Hello, On Trusty, the stop of lxc-net fails if the iptables rules are not present. I added “exec >> /tmp/lxc-net.log 2>&1” at the beginning of pre-start and post-stop and get: iptables: Bad rule (does a matching rule exist in that chain?). On Precise, a “|| true” was added to avoid errors. I attach a patch to disable exit on failing iptables call. Regards.
