Tutorial: http://www.howtoforge.com/installing-and-using-openvz-on-ubuntu-10.04-p2 Code: root@FIRE:~$ ls /vz/template/cache ubuntu-10.04-minimal_10.04_amd64.tar.gz ubuntu-10.04-x86_64.tar.gz root@FIRE:/home/reggin# vzctl create 102 --ostemplate ubuntu-10.04-minimal_10.04_amd64 --config basic Unable to get full ostemplate name for ubuntu-10.04-minimal_10.04_amd64 Creating container private area (ubuntu-10.04-minimal_10.04_amd64) /usr/local/lib/vzctl/scripts/vps-create: line 31: 4220 Killed tar -C "$VE_PRVT" ${TAR_OPT} ${OPT} -xf "$PRIVATE_TEMPLATE" vps-create ERROR: Error in tar --numeric-owner -z -xf /var/lib/vz/template/cache/ubuntu-10.04-minimal_10.04_amd64.tar.gz Received signal: 9 in /usr/sbin/vzquota Killed Also right after this my server gives the $ prompt like usual but will freeze after any command is given and must be restarted manually (physical restart button). This causes the 'vzctl set 101 --onboot yes --save' and 'vzctl start 101' to return errors and presumably means I can't continue the tutorial. I'm quite clueless as to what this error code means or how to get around it. Just for the record, I am trying to put a few (no more than 8) vps on a single dedicated server. If anyone knows a tutorial better suited for my project, please tell me.
What's the output of Code: ls -la /vz/template/cache/ ? Have you tried Debian Lenny? From my experience it works better with OpenVZ: http://www.howtoforge.com/installing-and-using-openvz-on-debian-lenny-amd64

Can you run Code: tar --numeric-owner -z -xf /var/lib/vz/template/cache/debian-5.0-amd64-minimal.tar.gz manually on the shell? Do you get any error messages?
Sorry it took so long: Code: root@FIRE:/home/reggin# tar --numeric-owner -z -xf /var/lib/vz/template/cache/debian-5.0-amd64-minimal.tar.gz root@FIRE:/home/reggin# ls -la /var/lib/vz/template/cache total 282976 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2010-11-06 10:40 . drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 2010-10-31 22:10 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 61459687 2009-01-13 01:44 debian-5.0-amd64-minimal.tar.gz -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 87791258 2010-05-04 18:36 ubuntu-10.04-minimal_10.04_amd64.tar.gz -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 140500922 2010-07-09 23:30 ubuntu-10.04-86_64.tar.gz No error messages.
No error message? Maybe it is a problem with missing drive space. What's the output of Code: df -h ? Are there any errors in your logs?
I just remembered that my laptop's motherboard required Virtualization to be manually enabled. On that note, I checked my desktop board if anything similar occured. I found a setting I had not recognized called "no execute memory protection technology". My good friend Google lead me to believe that hypervisors hate that, so I disabled it. The vzctl create command worked only after I redid most of the tutorial. Code: root@FIRE:/home/reggin# vzctl create 103 --ostemplate debian-5.0-amd64-minimal --config basic Unable to get full ostemplate name for debian-5.0-amd64-minimal Creating container private area (debian-5.0-amd64-minimal) Performing postcreate actions Container private area was created Thank you for your time.
