docker exec: rpc error: code = 2 desc = oci runtime error: exec failed

18

every time I try to do:

$ docker exec 

I get the error message:

 rpc error: code = 2 desc = oci runtime error: exec failed:   container_linux.go:247: starting container process caused "process_linux.go:83: executing setns process caused \"exit status 16\""

Session 1 (works like expected):

$ docker images

Session 2:

$ docker ps -a

$ docker exec -it alpine sh

rpc error: code = 2 desc = oci runtime error: exec failed: container_linux.go:247: starting container process caused "process_linux.go:83: executing setns process caused \"exit status 16\""

/var/log/syslog shows some warnings, but I was neither able to understand the root cause not finding matching answers.

Thanks for any hint.

From the linked issue is this comment which appears to be the root cause:

I think I found the root reason. It's nothing to do with Docker.

Actually docker exec always fail because of Symantec AutoProtect running on my system. It loads a custom kernel module that add some file operation hooks, which affects the result of setns.

$ lsmod | grep symev
symev_custom_dkms_x86_64 72166 2 symap_custom_dkms_x86_64

The workaround is to disable Symantec AutoProtect and reboot.

sudo update-rc.d autoprotect disable
