Failed to start container manager: inotify_add_watch /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuacct,cpu: no such file or directory

[jlec]

When starting current canary on latest CentOS7, it fails with

Failed to start container manager: inotify_add_watch /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuacct,cpu: no such file or directory

It seems the naming is reversed (cpu,cpuacct vs cpuacct,cpu)

$ ll -d /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu*
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root  0 Aug 11 13:33 /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu,cpuacct
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root  0 Aug 11 13:33 /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuset
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 Aug 11 13:33 /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu -> cpu,cpuacct
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 Aug 11 13:33 /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuacct -> cpu,cpuacct

I'm seeing this as well.

👍 just stumbled upon the same problem

This is a docker issue and it should have been resolved in the more recent
versions cAdvisor.

This should be fixed by #1476

Also getting this issue with latest Docker image as per Github instructions page on SLES.

Here is the solution that works kubernetes/kubernetes#32728 (comment)

This issue has not been fixed still. :( The workaround recommended by @qband did work.

REPOSITORY                  TAG                 IMAGE ID            CREATED             SIZE
docker.io/google/cadvisor   latest              75f88e3ec333        6 weeks ago         62.21 MB

[abelgana]

Experiencing the same issue. The workaround did work for me too.

[wongoo]

use the latest released version instead of the version latest.

    ln -s /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu,cpuacct /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuacct,cpu

@axiaoxin nice work, Working perfectly

[Cherishty]

@axiaoxin It works, but will reproduce whenever I reboot the machine, any workaround?
