Invalid arguments for command /usr/bin/lxc-create

[hackel]

Just playing with this for the first time. It appears the lxc-wrapper script is failing when calling lxc-create. I've included the debug output.
DEBUG subprocess: stderr: Invalid arguments for command /usr/bin/lxc-create, provided args: ["-B", "best", "--template", "/home/hackel/.vagrant.d/gems/gems/vagrant-lxc-1.2.1/scripts/lxc-template", "--name", "lxc-test_default_1481915208483_8705", "--", "--tarball", "/home/hackel/.vagrant.d/boxes/fgrehm-VAGRANTSLASH-precise64-lxc/1.2.0/lxc/rootfs.tar.gz", "--config", "/home/hackel/.vagrant.d/boxes/fgrehm-VAGRANTSLASH-precise64-lxc/1.2.0/lxc/lxc-config"]

I tried this using the default configuration in an auto-generated Vagrantfile. I tried both the fgrehm/precise64-lxc and developerinlondon/ubuntu_lxc_xenial_x64 boxes, but I don't think that's the issue here.

Ubuntu 16.10
lxd: 2.6.2-0ubuntu3ubuntu16.10.1ppa1
lxc1: 2.0.6-0ubuntu4ubuntu16.10.1ppa1
vagrant: 1.8.5+dfsg-2

With version 2 this command is no longer existing. A lot of things have changed and e.g. lxc launch ubuntu:14.04 my-ubuntu can instead be used to launch a container. Also LXD now has a REST-API which might be a better fit: https://linuxcontainers.org/lxd/rest-api/

There is even a Ruby-Client: http://jeffshantz.github.io/hyperkit/

I may have encountered a similar issue. The following worked for me, but it's unclear why:

$ vagrant plugin list
$ vagrant plugin uninstall vagrant-lxc
$ sudo mv /usr/local/bin/vagrant-lxc-wrapper /tmp
$ vagrant plugin install vagrant-lxc
$ export VAGRANT_LOG=debug
$ vagrant up <your node name>

I get almost the exact same error on Debian jessie (stable), which ships lxc 1.0.6, which still has the command lxc-create.

System info:
Debian 8.7
lxc 1:1.0.6-6+deb8u5
vagrant 1.6.5+dfsg1-2

Hey, sorry for the silence here but this project is looking for maintainers 😅

As per #499, I've added the ignored label and will close this issue. Thanks for the interest in the project and LMK if you want to step up and take ownership of this project on that other issue 👋
