Authy snap error cannot perform operation: mount --rbind

stumpy · June 10, 2021, 5:43pm

I installed authy via snap on Fedora, was able to set it up and use it, but after i restarted my system i get this error when i try to start the snap

cannot perform operation: mount --rbind /dev /tmp/snap.rootfs_pREVyH//dev: No such file or directory

anyone have ideas how to resolve this error?
Thank you in advance!

Can you try to start the snap from a terminal with:

SNAP_CONFINE_DEBUG=1 snap run authy

and share the output you get from that?

also the output of these commands would be helpful:

snap version
snap list authy

Thanks

Thanks for the response, note, I mistakenly said “Fedora” but i was getting machines mixed up, its Debian. And yeah, sorry for the lack of into.
So from

SNAP_CONFINE_DEBUG=1 snap run authy

I get:

and for snap version:

$ snap version

snapd   2.37.4-1+b1
series  16
debian  10
kernel  5.4.98-1.fc25.qubes.x86_64

and from snap list authy:

$ snap list authy

authy  1.8.3    5    stable    twilio-authy  -

ijohnson · June 10, 2021, 8:52pm

You need to upgrade the version of snapd you have installed, try snap install core first

stumpy · June 10, 2021, 8:59pm

that gave me the following:

$ snap install core

ijohnson · June 10, 2021, 9:11pm

Try this:

sudo /usr/lib/snapd/snap-discard-ns authy 
SNAP_CONFINE_DEBUG=1 snap run authy

ijohnson · June 10, 2021, 9:31pm

Is this being run inside a container? It seems to imply that either /dev or /tmp/snap.rootfs_IeI049/ do not exist, but previously in the log the tmp dir was created by snap-confine

stumpy · June 10, 2021, 9:31pm

Its being run in a VM if that counts? (sorry am new to this)

ijohnson · June 10, 2021, 9:33pm

Just to be clear, /dev exists on this system right, what is ls -lah /dev ?

stumpy · June 10, 2021, 9:36pm

/dev exists, but no /dev/snap as far as i can tell.

The output is:
$ ls -lah /dev

I also have this problem, with the difference that some of my programs run without problems, such as vscode

I think we need to try stracing to see what happens. Make sure you have strace installed.
Then you need to run:

sudo /usr/lib/snapd/snap-discard-ns authy 
snap run --strace='--raw -vf -e mount,unshare' authy

and include the output.

That gives me the following:

$ sudo /usr/lib/snapd/snap-discard-ns authy 
$ snap run --strace='--raw -vf -e mount,unshare' authy

Can you also attach the output of ls -l /snap/core18/ ?

stumpy · June 11, 2021, 10:06am

Absolutely! Thank you.

$ ls -l /snap/core18/
total 4.0K
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Jun 8 16:07 2066/
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jun 8 16:07 current -> 2066/

mborzecki · June 11, 2021, 10:17am

Hm I am puzzled now. Does ls -l /snap/core18/current/ show anything

stumpy · June 11, 2021, 10:18am

It seems not?

$ ls -l /snap/core18/current/
total 0

mborzecki · June 11, 2021, 10:20am

All right, that explains why mount is getting ENOENT. Now we need to determine why the snap isn’t mounted. What’s the output of systemctl status snap-core18-2066.mount ?

Also please attach the output of journalctl -u snap-core18-2066.mount.

stumpy · June 11, 2021, 10:23am

I get the following:

$ systemctl status snap-core18-2066.mount
