This is my first trial with openVZ and a wiki. Please give me some hints, if anything is wrong. Don't hesitate to correct my poor english.
I just installed openVZ on a rather old test box with Debian. Installation failed at first and I suppose there is one command missing in a wrong path statement used for the instructions for debianpackages.
When I came to
<code>vzctl start 777</code>
I received the message
<precode>Starting VE ...VE private area /var/lib/vz/private/777 does not exist</precode>
After some researches at Moving the forum I and the wiki I found out that the step <code>vzctl create directory 777 --ostemplate debian-3.1-i386-minimal<from /code> as described in the "OS template cache preparation" is missing in the debian specific sectionvz/private to /var/lib/vz/private solves this problem.
Now I could start and enter the new VE.
 
One of the first steps in the new VE should be the installation of security patches via apt-get update, apt-get upgrade. This fails because of missing nameservers. I added the line <code>nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx</code> to /etc/resolv.conf and updates work.
