vWLC starts and stops immediately

Hello community,
I was hoping to get some assistance here.

I'm learning to use eve ng and I added Cisco WLC to the topology and connected cloud to it. When I start the WLC I see notification that it started but 2 secs later
I see it stopped. No feedback or error output.

I recorded it. You can see the footage here https://share.icloud.com/photos/014wVGl ... VwM9Y62uBQ

What can I do to find out what happened ?


Thank you in advance.

Simply your EVE CPU have not enabled Intel VT-X virtualization, or your image is not prepared properly, and eve dont know what to boot...
First check your EVE CLI output:

Code: Select all

root@eve-master:~# kvm-ok
INFO: /dev/kvm exists
KVM acceleration can be used
root@eve-master:~#

Yes, I'm getting expected output (attached). Virtualization isn't the problem 'coz I can run different VMs without issue. I run Eve NG from VM too.
Speaking of the image I followed this guide https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=orf252USzPY and got no error outputs so I'm assuming the
image was created OK.

What else I can try ?

Turns out all I needed to do is to allocate more resources to EVE.
