"can't initialize ip6tables table `filter'" error running SIM service #106

Closed eriklima closed 1 year ago

eriklima commented 1 year ago

Hello, community and @marten-seemann

While I tried to run docker-compose (following the tutorial at https://github.com/marten-seemann/quic-network-simulator) the server and client both worked, but the sim service failed with the message below:

Captura de tela de 2023-01-28 22-47-24

After this failure, the docker instances looked like this:

Captura de tela de 2023-01-28 22-51-01

How to solve this problem? Can someone help me?

This issue was resolved by running the follow command on my host machine: sudo modprobe ip6table_filter

According to this article, this problem is because docker relies on the host to provide the network resources i.e. "iptables": https://ilhicas.com/2018/04/08/Fixing-do-you-need-insmod.html
