buildah: buildah run: error opening "/etc/cni/net.d/cni.lock": creating locker directory: mkdir /etc/cni: permission denied
Description
I’ve built containers with buildah <= 1.23.1 (in a systemd container, if that matters). The containers were built with --cap-add=CAP_SYS_PTRACE
and they are root-less containers. With buildah <= 1.23.1 I have been able to buildah run
these containers just fine. However since upgrading to 1.24.1 I cannot run these containers. I get errors like:
$ buildah run testing-root python --version
error reading build container "testing-root": error opening "/etc/cni/net.d/cni.lock": creating locker directory: mkdir /etc/cni: permission denied
Is this a bug or something extra I need to do now that I’ve upgraded to 1.24?
Steps to reproduce the issue: With buildah 1.24.1:
- As non-root. Create a container with
CAP_SYS_PTRACE
:c=$(buildah from <image> --cap-add=CAP_SYS_PTRACE ...)
- Attempt to run the container:
buildah run $c -- <command>
Describe the results you received:
Error message as describe above and buildah exists with status 125.
Describe the results you expected:
buildah runs the given command in the given container

To clarify my comment (https://github.com/containers/buildah/issues/3783#issuecomment-1162724171):
I hit the error with rootless
buildah rm
on Fedora 36 when trying to remove buildah containers which were created before operating system upgrade, on Fedora 35. After i performed the mentioned workaround to remove all buildah containers which persisted from F35, i can now create and remove buildah containers without problems (the workaround is no longer necessary).@guystreeter if you have podman on board too, you could use the big hammer
podman system reset --force
. Or the other big hammers:rm -rf /var/lib/containers/*
# for rootfulrm -rf $HOME/.local/share/containers/*
# for rootless
