[pkg-lxc-devel] Bug#887073: libpam-cgfs: spurious "Failed to create a cgroup" messages

[Paul Slootman]

Package: libpam-cgfs
Version: 2.0.8-1
Severity: normal

I have a crontab entry in /etc/cron.d/ to grab a snapshot from a netcam
every 2 minutes. About 1-2 times an hour I get a syslog message such as

Jan 13 12:44:01 tveer PAM-CGFS[27513]: Failed to create a cgroup for user webcam.

Why is this happening?


Thanks,
Paul
