SUMMARY

Whenever I install AWX under ProxMox in a Debian 10 LCX container with Docker Compose I get this error message after running the installation playbook

Error message:

fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "errors": [], "module_stderr": "Creating awx_web ... \n\u001b[1A\u001b[2K\nCreating awx_web ... \n\u001b[1B", "module_stdout": "", "msg": "Error starting project Encountered errors while bringing up the project."}

ENVIRONMENT
  • AWX version: 15.0.1
  • AWX Linux / Docker Compose
  • Ansible version: X.Y.Z
  • Operating System: Linux
  • Web Browser: Firefox ESR

Contributor guide

Research direction
Check if the Docker Compose installation fails due to cgroup or systemd restrictions in LXC containers. Search for known issues with AWX on Proxmox LXC and ensure the container has sufficient privileges (e.g., nesting enabled).
