Been bumping up against this on several Ubuntu 12.04 LTS containers
Found a solution here that worked for me:
I just ran into the same issue. A simple workaround is to delete the file /etc/sysctl.d/10-kernel-hardening.conf
This has the rule: kernel.kptr_restrict = 1 which you can't do from an OpenVZ container.
Code:
Setting up procps (1:3.2.8-11ubuntu6.1) ...
start: Job failed to start
invoke-rc.d: initscript procps, action "start" failed.
dpkg: error processing procps (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1Quote:
