Hi everyone,

thanks for your participation in this weird problem. Luckily I could already figure it out myself by having a closer look at the bug report 398.

There you find the following line to set up the rights for the devices such as dev/null

vzctl set <id> --devices c:5:2:rw --save

This setup helped and actually solved the problem.

Before using this command I followed the Howto:"physical to VE", which suggests:

rm -f /vz/private/123/dev/null (if null exists)
mknod /vz/private/123/dev/null c 1 3

This command set the permissions crw-r--r--, which lead to the conflict.

Maybe someone could add this to the wiki.

Greetings,

Norman

PS: Sorry, if this solutions was more than obvious to some of you...I´m still a linux noob :-/
