Public bug reported: I just installed the Ubuntu 20.04 LTS minimal cloud image (from here: https://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/minimal/releases/focal/release/) in a Proxmox VM. Then I installed the NFS Server with
apt install nfs-server But it fails to start with these errors in journalctl: Apr 10 18:03:55 servername01 systemd[1]: Starting Preprocess NFS configuration... -- Subject: A start job for unit nfs-config.service has begun execution -- Defined-By: systemd -- Support: http://www.ubuntu.com/support -- -- A start job for unit nfs-config.service has begun execution. -- -- The job identifier is 563.

Apr 10 18:03:55 servername01 systemd[1]: Dependency failed for NFS Mount Daemon. "mount: /proc/fs/nfsd: unknown filesystem type 'nfsd'." ... So it seems, that the nfsd kernel module is missing: # modprobe nfsd modprobe: FATAL: Module nfsd not found in directory /lib/modules/5.4.0-1061-kvm I can't figure out how to install this for the running kernel. Any idea? ** Affects: nfs-utils (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1968612 Title: Ubuntu 20.04 Cloud Image: NFS Server not working To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nfs-utils/+bug/1968612/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
