Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/RD17/ambar/issues/42

The install process was easy and straightforward. I was excited to get started with ambar, but at the very end I received a message in the console

sysctl: cannot stat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_fin_timeout: No such file or directory

I know lxc containers have an issue running docker (which I was able to get around by modifying the lxc conf file to include some extra parameters. I realize this is probably not the safest practice but the container would only be accessible on a local network. Since I'm still having issues with the container I was hoping to see if anyone had a solution I missed.

Hello @tscibilia ! This line sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_fin_timeout=30 was added to tune Ubuntu tcp/ip stack, I think in your case just comment it out in your ambar.py file:

# runShellCommandStrict('sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_fin_timeout=30')

# runShellCommandStrict('sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_fin_timeout=30')

# runShellCommandStrict('sysctl -w net.core.netdev_max_backlog=2000')
